Hi everyone, I am thinking to attend Natural Products Association Midwest show. It seems reasonably priced and is just a few hrs away from me. But the set up sounds strange - only 14 full size booths…Continue

Feature in a national magazine any TIPS?

Hi Indies, I have received an inquiry from a national magazine to include some of my products in their "beauty opener" for their August issue. Not sure what beauty opener means... but I was hoping to see if any of you may have helpful tips on how to make a great impact on editors. Maybe a personal Thank you note, or a box of chocolates, extra products, or samples??  Thanks so much!Liana.See More

NPA Midwest trade show - anyone?

Hi everyone, I am thinking to attend Natural Products Association Midwest show. It seems reasonably priced and is just a few hrs away from me. But the set up sounds strange - only 14 full size booths and the rest is tabletops??? Kind of strange, but maybe this type of shows are different from gift trade shows. Not sure what to think.http://www.npamidwest.org/show.php   Thanks in advance!Liana. See More
