Hi Amy,
Where is your market?
The secret to getting customers is advertising.
If you have good products and fair prices the rest
is easy if the market advertises.
If the market is in a non-agricultural city or town
of sufficient size to have a radio station or two,
you might investigate radio advertising. It is one
of the great bargains to be had in rural areas
(aside from Minnesota).
If your market is a six day affair you must advertise
to reach a large number of people and catch those
passing through.
If you have a specific question, post it to the list or
send it to me off list.
Good luck with your new market.
