Whelp, we broke an attendance record last weekend during Bella Rustina. Unfortunately it was in the wrong direction – Lowest attendance yet in Little Rock and the worst attendance at any of my shows in the last few years. I knew it would be a challenging weekend with all the other events going on, but since last weekend was the only weekend the Stadium had open to give me, I thought maybe I could figure out how to convince people to make Bella Rustina a priority. I gave away over 1,000 tickets and maybe 35 were turned in. I gathered and gave hundreds of dollars worth of giveaway/silent auction items to the Race for the Cure. I called all the TV stations and Channel 4 was gracious enough to let me come on air, but others either didn’t respond or gave me the runaround until they filled all their interview spots. I also spent an extra 25% on advertising. One thing I know for sure is I gave 110% to try to have a good show. My exhibitors were top notch and put on a gorgeous and quality show for those who did attend. They had the best attitudes too and I’m so thankful for their encouragement. I’m also thankful for the customers who made time to attend, especially on Friday and Saturday when it was unseasonably hot. Many exhibitors told me they did at least “okay”, but I want most to do great or at least for there to be a large enough crowd so everyone knows I did my job. Thankfully I don’t have time to dwell on it. Antique Alley Arkansas is less than a month away and I do know people are excited about it and I’m pumped! I already have plans to change things up for the next Little Rock Bella Rustina that should make all the difference in the world too – I refuse to be a one-hit-wonder in Little Rock.
Here are the sales I know about for this weekend:
