Since my new diet has been working great, I got myself into a craft show for this weekend. I did this show last year and did fairly well, so I decided to do it again. However, this year, I didn't even make my booth fee back. Last year there were no other soap makers there, and this year I found at least 1. I did not have enough time before the show started to walk the whole thing and I did not get any help this time. She really low balled my price and I am finding that more and more that whenever there are other soap makers there I do not do well since they all charge $3 or less for their 4 oz bars. I take pride in my product and worked hard to make it what it is, but nobody is buying. I sell them for $4 or 4 for $15. I saw in another thread that is what somebody else does too. My bars are also at least 4 oz, sometimes more since I hand cut them. I'm wondering if maybe I should lower the 4 for price to try to get them to move more. I give out samples, but people either do not come back or when they do, they end up not buying after they see the price. I get lots of people to stop and smell, lots of great comments on the smells too, but no takers. I can't afford to pay for booths and not at least break even and I will not be able to hold out much longer at this rate either. Maybe I should start charging 25 cents to sniff
