Indiana Women's Expo

[ptbeads]

Has anyone been to this? I just got an application to be a vendor. Booths are NOT cheap, and I don't want to make the same mistake that I have in the past assuming that a higher booth fee means that there are enough attendees to warrant a higher booth fee. It's at the expo hall at the state fairgrounds.

If anyone has attended or vended at this event, I'd like some feedback.

Thanks!

I think maybe some of the Islaga Members might have since most of them are in indy maybe some of them will pipe up.

I've not been to the one down there. I know there is an expo in Fort Wayne. I think it is mostly health booths but I think there is a goody bag. I'm pretty sure Vera Bradley is a sponsor.

I'll check to see if there is anything posted at the islaga site.

There are a couple of other bead shows at the fairgrounds (TOTESHOWS.com), but I've not heard of this one. It wasn't on the state fair calendar when I was researching shows to do this year. You might go request info at www.islaga.org/forum. Can you point me to some details about it? Thanks!

I was told by a lampoworker that at the one here in Peoria she sold NOTHING! I can't pay that kind of money for a booth, plus give away something and not sell anything. I just don't have those kind of funds to go just for advertising.
