All Registered Exhibitors are posted at Buyer Days page on Facebook

Go to Facebook and search for Buyer Days of the Adirondack North Country Association. Exhibitors and buyers will see your product descriptions, show specials and links that you included in your online or pdf applications.

Exhibitors are welcome to add new product shots and show specials as comments.

If we each reach out to appropriate shopowners who are friends and invite them and ask them to spread the work we can anticipate new shopowners coming to the show.

You can send them individual messages.

You can select your shopowner friends to create a contact group and invite them to view the products at Buyer Days.

You can link to the Buyer Days page from your wall.

You can like all the BD exhibitor postings.

Five have already signed up via online registration for Buyer Days!

Adirondack Chandler, Glimmer Glass Gifts, Peter Shrope Pottery, Earth and Fire Pottery and Crazy as a Loom rag rugs have registered and paid to become 2011 Buyer Days exhibitors using the new online registration option using Paypal.  

Buyer Days will take place Wed., April 6 and Thurs., April 7, 2011 at the City Center in Saratoga Springs. For more details visit the Buyer Days page at www.AdkNCcrafts.com and download the show application as pdf to view terms and facts.

The two others who have signed up and have chosen the option to send in a check will be officially registered and posted online as soon as their checks come in.

Since the email blast to 328 of you went out only yesterday morning it's very exciting to see you taking advantage of the online option. Those who do so receive an instant email confirmation. Those new to the show will need to go through the jury process as usual. The jury will view your website so make sure your product shots are current and reflect lines that are wholesale appropriate.

Both the online registration and the pdf (print it out and mail in with check) are linked to the left navigation bar on the Buyer Days page at www.adknccrafts.com.

For those of you new to wholesale there is a link to the How to Establish and Maintain Wholesale Accounts workshop registration as pdf also on the left navigation bar on the Buyer Days page at www.adknccrafts.com.  The 4 hour 40$ workshop with 45 page packet on procedures and terminology of wholesale takes place on Jan. 22 from 10 to 2 at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake with Nadia Korths, ANCA's artisan program coordinator, and Josh Pratt, Wild Center Giftshop Manager and Buyer as copresenters. We will send out an email blast with online registration for the workshop the first week of Jan., 2011.
