    Howdy, I have a formula that works for me.  I will go by a dollar
    amount.  I fugure out how much stock it takes to have my booth
    looking fabulous, just the way I like.  Say 3,000 dollars.  Then I
    add the amount of money that I think is reasonable for that show, the
    most I could expect to make, say 4000.00.  Then I add an extra 1 to 3
    grand for good measure...I need atleast, 8-10 thousand worth of stock
    to have an excellent show at that location.  I like to make sure I
    have plenty of selection all the way through Sunday night. If your
    selections are waning too badly, you are probably loosing some sales.
    Nothing feels better than being loaded down with quality stock, when
    you pull out of your home driveway. 

Bye now, 
Holly
