Marketing your small business at a craft fair is VERY different from marketing your business in retail (in a boutique or store).

In this episode of the S.O.B. Marketing podcast, we talk with special guest Gretchen (Crafted From Faith) about the differences (and similarities) between retail marketing and marketing at craft fairs and vendor markets. Understanding what works best for each situation will help you reach your target audience - no matter the scenario.
