Building An Authoritative Travel Blog

Authoritative blogs seem all the rage at the moment but what exactly is an " Authoritative Travel Blog ?" Well my understanding of the matter is it is a blog that is not only very informative to the readers but that the information comes from authoritative type people in connection with what they are writing about.

Hopefully my articles below will give an insight on travel and travel related experiences from all over the world from many authoritative writers as they have been there and done that.

Articles will be and are published often and this means current travel experiences and up to date places to visit. If you have also visited these places or wish to comment then please do so remembering this blog is intended to family orientated visitors so please be respectful.

I have seen many fears raised through my article site and feel that any traveller today that, for one reason or another, decides against travel insurance then they are possibly being a little short sighted. We do not want our boats to sink but are happy to carry life rafts. travel insurance is a similar idea. We do not wish to ever claim on it but if things go wrong as they sometimes do it is a benifit to have the insurance.

Craft Fairs' Vendors

By Mara Hernandez-Capili

At craft fairs there are generally two types of people the vendors and the buyers or spectators. Vendors are seen as the sales people, the food kiosk attendants and the rides caretakers. They provide goods and services for the people of craft fairs. This article is written to provide us with things that vendors should be aware of in order to be successful at craft fairs. These things are:

If you're planning to be a craft fair vendor and sell your goods, Customer Service is an important aspect that you need to learn. As part of Customer Service/ Satisfaction first, you need to develop your communication skills. Communication is a vital tool in delivering and comprehending messages. This involves words and actions. When talking to a customer, a craft fair vendor should maintain eye contact and speak in a sincere manner in order to build the trust and confidence of the buyer.

Customer Service entails A LOT of understanding on the vendor's side. There are times that buyers would ask you a truck load full of questions only to find out that they were not really into buying your stuff. That's okay. Patience is a virtue and this virtue you will indeed learn when you became a vendor and sell at craft fairs.

When building your product it is important to keep in mind these things: target market and quality. You should first establish your target market in making your product in order to know if it is feasible or if there are people that can buy them. At craft fairs products that target women, children and mothers are those that are frequently bought since these people comprise almost 90% of the crowd at craft fairs.

It may be hard at first but being a craft vendor is a fulfilling and rewarding job.
