And I am the queen of wishy-washy decisions

As much as my husband and I can figure, there was over 10,000 people there last year, and it looks like it'll be just as busy this year. If only 1% of the people walking through are interested, and even only 10 people buy, then we will break even. Most of my sales come from referrals so if I sell to those 10 people, then they will tell their friends, etc.

Willie,
I don't think it's like a furniture show. I've been to those and they are much more low-key. This is open to the public with mom and dad dragging babies and toddlers along. The kids run rampant and parens don't have much control over them... hence my concept of inviting people into the booth to get them out of the herds. My brother thinks that is the stupidest idea he's ever heard... people just flow down the aisles grabbing stuff. If thats the case, then I can save $600 and stand in the parking lot handing out candy. My brother just can't seem to leave his opinions to himself. I swear he called to irk me because I "won" the fight over mom and the circus
