Try to get some support from friends or family at least the first time you exhibit. <br />Alone is not impossible but can be quite challenging, <br />As for visitng cards at least bring 100... <br />Indigo is a way to start, remember is the firts show in the world , specially Paris for fashion, and at this point I see Indigo as a marketing event rather than a sales event.<br />Definetly at least come to visit once before exhibiting, stay the 3 days and walk around the show at different times of the day, speak with other studios if they are willing to and get prepared for it. Is a great experience!<br />Hope this helps and hope I can see you exhibiting soon.<br />Best of luck!<br />RosieBelieve Creative Studio by Rosie Martinez-Dekkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863821509781528924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688578777458395794.post-58516446901174390892012-11-02T14:01:21.978+01:002012-11-02T14:01:21.978+01:00Hi, Rosie.

I love the way you tell the story and how it never ends, as people are "leaving to prepare for their next show". bethaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16706837879436273325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688578777458395794.post-21611109502207206782012-11-01T01:16:32.925+01:002012-11-01T01:16:32.925+01:00Just read your post on the 3rd day and then had to...Just read your post on the 3rd day and then had to go back again to all your other posts about Indigo! Just amazing to see how the show developes from a bare stand to full swing and then back to that lonely place again. Thanks for sharing, good to see it from your perspective! Next time I'll definitely try to go on the last day and have more conversations with the exhibitors … Eva Marion Seyffarthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07417837629414511953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688578777458395794.post-56725545019497034432012-10-29T23:50:36.797+01:002012-10-29T23:50:36.797+01:00Hello Rosie, thank you so much to share your exper...Hello Rosie, thank you so much to share your experience! I have little aditionnal questions about this Indigo show : wasn't it too busy to manage the stand alone? Do you recommend to come to this Fair with another assistant to manage it? How many visiting cards have you distribute during the Fair? And also, how many designs have you sold?????? I mean, is Indigo a good way to start as a textile pattern designer??Victorianoreply@blogger.com
