1556, Pricing question - opinions please!
Posted by lilly4, Sun Nov-16-08 05:44 AM
I posted this on eCommerce as well, but thought I'd try here too.


I started my business (home-based cookie baking)
in mid-September, and today for the first
time I had a table at a craft show, hoping to get some advertising
and bring in some sales. I am also hoping for orders for the
holidays.
Many fliers and biz cards were taken.
I did ok in sales, but not like I hoped at all.

I know times are tough for nearly everyone right now.
It seems like everyone wanted prices to be next to nothing at
the show today.
It's a lot of work to prepare for this, and even though I can't
charge too much, I can't short change myself either - I need to
make a profit!

I've seen prices way under (not sure how that person makes ANY
money), and for much more than what I'm asking.

Please give me your opinion.

Thanks so much!
