You've done the work, turned up to the event, set up in the searing heat or the pouring rain. Your display, exhibition, stand (tick appropriate) looks amazing. Your chest swells with pride that you've made it, you charge up your payment machine, check your phone speaks to it.  

YOU ARE READY, open up the doors ...and wait.  

So, after all that, what do you do when the sales are a bit slow, footfall is quiet - or non-existent?  Well, let's talk about that. Good or sloooooow, there's always something to do better for next time; it's time to analyse.

Thanks so much to everyone for sharing the podcast. We'd love it if you'd share and follow so other arty types find us too.
