Yellow City Comic Con - Opening Day & Things to consider when becoming a vendor
We arrived early for the convention set up yesterday, unloaded, and managed to get the booth set up. The show doesn't open to the general public until tomorrow at 5 PM, so the finer details were left for today. Today, we pulled the doors from the jewelry cases, opened the stock cabinets for both jewelry and flags, organized the books, and placed the 3D printed dragons so they were visible. As we were setting up, several vendors, a few convention staff, and the convention owner stopped by to visit the booth as it was being set up and admire the display. Several made the comment that this was possibly the largest display they've ever had at Yellow City Comic Con. This always makes me nervous. When I first started selling flags, we took pictures of the flags, placed them in a binder, and made it available for the public. Most people either dismissed the book all together or gave it a token glance at best. It wasn't until we displayed the flags and placed them in plain sight
