Display question

[Former_Member]

I will be selling a variety of greeting cards in different sizes and price points next week. Some are printed and some are handmade.

Would it be better to organize by price point or by topic...ie birthday, anniversary? If I organize it by topic, how should I show the prices so I don't confuse my customers? I would like to keep it as simple as possible.

Hi there!

As a fellow stationery designer, I would suggest to display your cards by topic and then within each topic, I would organized each cards by price, as to avoid any confusion for customers. I hope this makes sense... by the way, I would love to see pictures of your booth if you have any available. I love seeing displays from sellers who product is similar to my own.

Good luck!!

Cheers!

Hi Ardiana,

Thank you, I think this is good advice. My booth isn't anything fancy or special. I couldn't afford to spend too much on it after the booth fee so I'm not sure if its picture worthy. I'm so nervous because the craft fair is 4 days long but hopefully it will be worth it.

As a customer I would want to see your handmade cards separate from your printed cards.

And the same would be said for occasions.

In lovely groupings, with small individual signs near each grouping. Because I am a shy shopper, I may not want to ask you about anything. I may want to browse and read your cards at ease.

There are many good ideas in this team thread and pictures of others displays and their booth settings:

Good Luck.

Personally, because I'm used to how the B&M stores setup their cards, I'd prefer to see the cards organized by topic. I don't want to hop, skip and jump around to see what my options are for birthday cards. If I have to spend extra time or struggle to figure out what my options are, I'll get frustrated and walk away.
