Mijo Report post Posted July 16, 2012 This weekend (April 21st and 22nd) is the Renegade Craft Fair (RCF) in San Francisco, http://www.renegadecraft.com/sanfrancisco-info . Just wanted to let people know about it, since I know there are forum members in Northern CA. If anyone participated in the RCF in Austin or Brooklyn earlier this year, i'd be interested in hearing how it went. I went (but was not a vendor) to the SF RCF last year and it seemed like it would be worthwhile as it was packed with people. Awhile back I spoke with two vendors that sold at the SF RCF last year and they said they did pretty well last year and were planning on doing it again in 2012, one of them makes leather products (i.e. wallets, belts, etc.) and the other one makes wood ties. my wife (who owns the business I make small leather dog products for) split a booth with a friend to help reduce the overall cost of doing this event. I spoke with some other local dog product manufacturers recently, who did the show last year and they stated that it was just "okay". My main interest in doing this show was to get the word out on my wife's company as her products are already in many of the local dog boutiques in the city, I'm not expecting to do a lot of sales. Our sales are substantially higher for events that cater specifically to canines or pets in general. If there are any forum members that will be attending the event, please PM and I'll give you my wife's company name and where our booth will be. It would be nice to meet some forum members, in the flesh and talk shop. I'm only going to be there on Saturday, as I have business travel on Sunday (for my day job).
