Exhibitor spaces at Dragon*Con are $1100!

Dealer tables are $500-- but that won't work. Wow. I'm gonna have to think about this.

S'what I said!

[scarletwildfire.livejournal.com]

mmm ok after I read the other comments... maybe take it from a different angle? Did ya look at it from the how many would I have to sell to break even standpoint? I mean *shrugs* I dunno... if there's that many people... you never know, right?

[stregapez.livejournal.com]

I thought 200 was too expensive for Wicked. Yikes!

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Nah-- that was a good price. But this...well, a whole 'nother kettle of crazies.

If you're coming to DCon, lemme know? I can't promise full-time minioning, but I'd be more than happy to come by the booth and show off in my lovely new corset and tell everyone how wonderful you are : D My con membership is bought and paid for and my hotel reservs are made, so I am definitely going.

[zaphod-groupie.livejournal.com]

To clarify, whether you're there or not, I fully intend to blather happily to anyone who'll listen about my new shiny, but if you need someone to come by and blather in some sort of semi-official capacity, even just to cover a minion's breaks or something, I can probably do that.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Heh. I may take you up on that!

Here's an idea if you don't already do it... include business cards with your corsets just like utilikilts does with their kilts.. that way fans/customers have pre-made things with complete details they could easily hand out if they so desire.

[zaphod-groupie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd already planned to ask for a stack of cards with my shiny. I'm told I'm AWESOME at pimping businesses, lol.

[elionwyr.livejournal.com]

So does that mean you randomly grab *all* your prospective customers' breastesses?

*sad look*

I thought I was SPECIAL!

Just a thought, but how about a dealer table and ditch the table? Still not enough space?

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

My setup this weekend? That was a dealer-size table. Look to you like I fit on that sucker?

[thorn]

Just exploring options. And two tables = exhibition space in terms of price, basically. *sighs* However, I suspect the numbers will be off the chart, but so might the competition. Dunno. Never been.

[ysobelle.livejournal.com]

Well...I have til late May to decide. I still wanna do it, but....

AUGH! What are you doing to me, woman!?

Re: p.s. stocking s

[ibukij.livejournal.com]

HELPING!

[elionwyr.livejournal.com]

Whaaaaaat about doing an art show space, having a few kick ass corsets in there, and business cards galore..?

[daemionfox.livejournal.com]

Yeah... But DC is 5 days and like... well... Fuckton of people? 30k people? Most of who are there to spend money.

[ladyleo.livejournal.com]

More like 75kish :)

[ladylyonesse.livejournal.com]

I have to tell you, I was staggered when I saw Pendragon at GenCon last year, but they kicked almighty ass there, and there were vendors with generic corsetry who did brisk business there as well -- you might consider it.

[freyas-fire.livejournal.com]

Damn...if I had the money, I'd split a spot with you, but even at half that.....damn.

[regalpewter.livejournal.com]

Ok, for what you get in exposure.
1100 bucks/70,000 fen= 2 cents a head.
Even if you only get a sales rate of 25 cents a head; this show would be so worth doing...
Now you have me thinking....

YIS,
WRI

[grinning-fox.livejournal.com]

Drop me a line, maybe about splitting space or about help with minioning? I need to get a grip on my money situation, but it's certainly something I'd be willing to look at. You do corsets, I do coats, something crazy like that? If you tell me soon, I have tome to make some show pieces for it.

The folks at Wolffgaard ( I think I spelled it right) did as much at Dragon Con as they did an entire season at Tux, so it is definitely a good one. If you want to do a run of chemises or such, let me know.
I've considered doing it, and before I was the big red V, I wouldn't have hesitated.
