- Replying to @IvoryIce_I know I brought this subject up recently, but the continues price hikes for booth space every year really hitting artists hard. Most people I talk to are too afraid to raise their prices since the customer base has been use to the same prices for years..
- Replying to @IvoryIce_So in the end we have to eat up any extra costs ourselves and hope our profit margin is still worth it in the end. Worst case artist either only break even, or unfortunately end up in the red.
- Replying to @IvoryIce_This doesnโt include other costs such as gas/plane/uber, hotel, parking, food, product cost, etc. Not to mention the countless hours put into prep and the 9-10 hours each day working our tables, which not everyone can afford to hire a helper.
