Flea Markets - Hidden Opportunity?

MelroseTradingPost2page.jpgIn what could be the beginning of something great, Love Briana will be setting up a booth at the Melrose Trading Post in West Hollywood this weekend. The trading post is a weekly flea market. For the longest time I thought flea markets only carried used furniture and random garage sale type stuff. The more I attend them however, the more I see how much opportunity there is for small businesses to test out their products and make out with some considerable sales.
For those who are just getting started the former might be a great reason on it's own. At a much smaller fee then say Art Fairs and Street Festivals you can set up a table and see who takes a liking to your products and you can get a feel for how your items should be priced.

Vendors at most flea markets now have: clothing & fashion accessories, fine art, crafts, wood work, jewelry, photography and other items that are very common on Ekaweeka. We're going to make a day of it this Sunday - I'll be joining Briana for this flea market (there is a waiting list so we have a small chance of not getting in), assuming all goes as planned anyone in the area should feel free to join us. We'll be broadcasting blog updates from the booth with our insider angle on this possibly super hotbed opportunity for all EkaUsers out there :D
