I had no delusions that I would make a killing. I knew going into the event that my stuff was pretty niche. With that self admission, I was able to make realistic goals. Those were:

  • Education of the Baybayin script
  • Awareness of my brands and services
  • Have meaningful conversations
  • Network with similar vendors for my upcoming fashion project

It’s been a while since I sold anything in public. I think the last time was when I was in high school selling baseball cards at hotels. While I like getting out and meeting people, online is much easier.
