Members emmanuelleather Posted September 29, 2012 Members Report Posted September 29, 2012 Douglais- Take it from somebody who has been to a lot of biker rallies as a vendor; there are a host of large biker rallies you should try first before Sturgis or Daytona. It will save you money and give you a better idea of what the market is. A lot of states have "Too Poor for Sturgis" rallies, Laconia in NH, The Carlyle rally in PA, to name just a few. And yeah, the helmets with horns would more than likely sell well. Quote Victor www.emmanuelleather.com
Members douglais Posted October 1, 2012 Author Members Report Posted October 1, 2012 Thanks for the excellent advice. I never thought of that. Anyway, I won't be going to Sturgis after all, since some plans I had changed, so it's a no-go for now. Quote
Members coiledup Posted December 1, 2012 Members Report Posted December 1, 2012 You would sell all if you came to Daytona, either for bike week or biketoberfest. There are plenty of places where vendors set up and the costs arent crazy. Only because it is spread out over many many miles and different cities. There is no helmet law here in Florida, and those helmets would sell great imo. Quote S&S LEATHERWURX Ormond Beach FL.
Members douglais Posted December 17, 2012 Author Members Report Posted December 17, 2012 Yeah, Sturgis was unbelievably expensive, but I found out there's a bike rally right here in Peoria, the Budweiser Grand Nationals, in August. The fee is about one thirtieth (1/30) of Sturgis, and it's big enough to keep me busy for months making product before the show. No driving, no camping, low fees, sleep in my own bed, eat at home. What's not to love? Quote
