Business Tips

How to Build Your Email List at Vintage Flea Markets

It’s been a LONG time since I posted any business related articles on the website.  But since I’m gearing up for another year of vintage flea markets I thought I’d share with you some ideas on how to build your email list at sales.  Also, would y’all mind answering one quick question for me?  Do you own a business?  Is it a brick-and-mortar shop, online, or do you sell at flea markets?  Leave a comment (or hit “reply” if you’re reading this in an email) and let me know.

How to Build Your Email List at Vintage Flea Markets

Include a coupon on your business card:  Last year I had some simple business cards printed up.  Not only do they include all my website and contact information but I also let them know that I have a 20% off coupon code when they sign up for my email list.

I ordered the cheapest cards from VistaPrint so I have no problem handing them to everyone who walks in to my booth.

This first photo was taken at Vintage Market Days in Waxahachie, Texas, last year.  I took advantage of a slow start that day to include a card in every bag.  I don’t want any customers leaving my booth without one of these business cards!

These are just regular paper lunch bags that I stamped with a personalized, self-inking stamp that I bought on Etsy.

Offer a sign up sheet:  I just typed up this simple form myself.  I print out 3-4 on white cardstock before every sale, clip them to a clipboard, and set them out on my table.  As you can see, I finally learned to tie a pen to my clip board so I won’t lose it!

When I first started doing this I would also ask everyone who came in if they’d like to sign up for my email list to enter our giveaway.  More people did sign up when I did that.  But I also had more unsubscribe as soon as I sent them an email.  And many would never even open them.  

Now I just leave this out at the front of a table so it’s easy to see.  I may mention it to someone who seems especially interested.  I feel like the people that I get signing up now are those who really are interested in my jewelry.

After each sale, I’ll go back and input all these into MadMimi.  I have it set up so that the first email goes out automatically.  It has the coupon code in it for them to use.
