Also, find out what your market owner is doing to advertise locally and get involved. Know the types of shoppers in your area and build your merchandise line around trending items as well as surefire sellers for the target buyers.

When it comes to appealing to niche groups, there are specific behaviors to be aware of, says Bill McNulty, publisher of the Merchandiser Group magazines’ sister publication, Independent Retailer. McNulty, who spoke to retailers at ASD Las Vegas in August, offered the following overview of the four distinct groups.

A FEW GREAT USES:

Call To Receive Discount Prices on Sample Packs

Holiday Shopping

Millennials, born between 1982 and 2000: Ninety percent of millennials use the Internet regularly, need the opinions of others to make purchases and are inclined to do things in groups. By 2017, millennials will have more spending power than any other generation in history.

Promote your business through twitter and Instagram. Millennials’ time and attention are at a premium, but they know how to make use of 140 characters and a camera phone to express their preferences.

Generation X, born between 1960 and 1981: The vast majority uses the Internet regularly, loves to research prior to making a purchase and mistrusts large institutions, the latter of which bodes well for flea market vendors. Reach this group through Facebook, by offering promotions, continued on page 14

and sharing others’ ideas and posts, and information that adds value.

Baby Boomers, born between 1943 and 1960: Once again, the vast majority uses the Internet and texts. Boomers are not as concerned with price as they are about value. First impression is vital and, once won over, this group remains loyal.

Seniors, over 70 years old: Some 40 percent of this group use the Internet.

They are willing to travel for good service and are very loyal. Offer this group a clean environment and ample parking, gifts, coupons and loyalty programs.

Delight their senses with the aroma of peppermint stick, holiday themed lights and poinsettia plants, hot chocolate with marshmallows and traditional music, for example. If your market sponsors special events, such as photos with Santa Claus, that is even better.

Customers can be very loyal, especially where personalized service and a fun experience are concerned.

Shopping behavior has changed dramatically, presenting new dynamics for flea marketers year round. Still, the holidays offer vendors a wealth of opportunities to cash in on face-toface interaction, customer service and targeted sales. An array of payment options, an entertaining environment, and good products at good values add up to increased profits for you this holiday season. ■ Visit FleaMarketZone.com For Today’s Business News & Updates.

Tap into Today’s Hottest Toys & Gifts NOW IS the time for flea market vendors to stock up on the latest toys and gifts for children and adults. Handmade finger puppets from the hills of Peru, animal- and sports-themed wooden plaques, leather bracelets with a European flair, video game accessories to accompany the new Xbox One and PlayStation 4, and craft sets are sure to be popular sellers this fall and beyond.

Women artisans in the high plains of Puno use their skills to make colorful finger puppets in more than 300 characters.

Finger puppets are a great way for flea market vendors to stand out from the crowd, Sorensen points out. “They can put a few puppets on their fingers and they will definitely attract attention.” Another idea that works well at flea markets is placing dozens of puppets in a fishbowl. “Shoppers poke through the bowl and play with them.

They are a great impulse item, and people buy four or five at a time.”

Normal wholesale price is $1.10 per doll but Finger Puppets is offering a special deal for the Merchandiser Group magazines’ readers. Simply mention promo code FP101 to receive the discounted price of $.85 per puppet for a minimum order of 100 pieces. Suggested retail is $1.95 to $2.50. Orders can be a selection of the most popular characters or tailored to specific shops or locations.

“We guarantee a nice assortment of incredible little finger puppets. If we learn a bit about a vendor and where they sell, we can blend their order in a custom way,” Sorensen adds. Finger puppets come individually packaged in small plastic bags with header cards or unpackaged in fishbowl displays of 100 and 250

so we can satisfy any market,�

Smith notes.

Dog plaques also are available.

Small plaques feature the face of the animal, and larger plaques are unique in that they showcase the full body of the dog. Vendors can choose from 90 breeds, the most popular of which are Yorkie, Beagle, Black Labrador, Golden Retriever and Chihuahua.

Smith recommends that vendors carry a minimum of 24 of the most popular types in their areas. “Vendors need a large selection to appeal to a wide range of shoppers. The plaques are already selling well and will be hot items for the holidays,� Smith remarks. SJT Enterprises also has a top selling line of 3D magnetic bookmarks/refrigerator magnets, which are available with 24 of the most common dog breeds. One bookmark retails for $4.99 and wholesales for $2.25.

SJT’s products are manufactured in the USA, which is a big selling point, Smith reports. The minimum order is $100 of combined products. Displays are available for most products, and vendors who place orders of $500 and up receive free units.

Motan has been in the textile business since 1985, when he launched Amtex, a sportswear company. “Due to our hard work and dedication to outstanding customer service, we were able to sell our successful company in 2006 and move into another faction of the textile industry,” he points out.

Alltex was established in 2009.

Alltex Imports sells brand name tee shirts, such as Fruit of the Loom, Jerzees and Gildane, for $21 to $27 per dozen. A two-piece terry towel set, for example, wholesales for less than $.60. Retailers can expect 35 to 50 percent markup, Motan states. Minimum orders are low, and are dependent upon the product and quantity. Drop shipping is available. ■

Flea Market News

Canton Flea Market Now Classy Collectibles The former Canton Flea Market, in Canton, NY, reopened recently as Classy Collectibles, bringing some resolution to vendors who lost their market when former manager Frank E. Monnett was evicted for not paying July rent. Determined vendors, led by Dennis Kelly and his wife Susette Kelly who operate Grandma’s Kids, worked with the University Plaza’s new owner, David C. Muraco of New Venture Assets LLC, to reopen the market.

Classy Collectibles, located at 5933 US Highway 11, is now hosting around 55 booths in the market’s 20,000 square feet of space. The new market has arranged to advertise in local papers to spread the word that it is now open, at least for the time being. “We have been promised we can stay open through Christmas, but everything is up in the air from there,” Dennis Kelly explains. As a result, Kelly is scoping out a new location for Grandma’s Kids and the other market shops.

Classy Collectibles is open Sundays and Mondays, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Wednesdays through Saturdays, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

It is closed on Tuesdays. For more information, call 315-386-5729. ■

NYC’s Broadway Flea Market & Grand Auction The 27th Annual Broadway Flea Market & Grand Auction, sponsored

by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, will be held in New York City September 22nd. Located at West 44th Street and Shubert Alley, the event will run from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. This is the event where Broadway fans and stars come together to celebrate the upcoming Broadway season. Free and open to the public, the festive outdoor market takes place in the heart of the theatre district.

Last year, 56 tables showcased merchandise from dozens of onand off-Broadway shows and other theatrical organizations. Whether it is a show, union, guild, merchandise company or other theatre-related group, sellers find their own volunteers, create and/or collect merchandise to sell, design their table layout and look, and help spread the word that they will be there.

Dozens of celebrities will be found chatting with fans at the Celebrity Autograph Table and Photo Booth. The market caps off with a live auction, featuring one-of-a-kind experiences and keepsakes. Event organizers also are looking for official fan videographers for this year’s event.

For more information, visit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS online at Facebook.com/BCEFA. ■

Alexander Calder Flea Market Find To Sell at Christie’s A rare necklace designed by 20th century American sculptor Alexander Calder, purchased for $15 at the Brooklyn Flea Market s in 2005, will be sold at Christie’s September 26th. To be offered in the auction house’s First Open Sale of Post War and Contemporary Art, the piece is expected to go for $200,000 to $300,000.

According to Bloomberg, Philadelphia resident Norma Ifi ll was perusing a flea market eight years ago when she stumbled upon the unique silver necklace, which 60 years before was hanging in New York’s Museum of Modern Art. “I thought it looked so tribal,” Ifill told Bloomberg. “I wore it about four-five times max and every time I wore it, people always admired it. I can’t believe I had a Calder necklace all this time and had no idea.”

It was not until three years later, when Ifill visited an Alexander Calder jewelry exhibition at the Philadelphia Art Museum, that she realized the necklace could be a bona fide piece of art. After speaking with the exhibition’s curator, Ifill reportedly took the necklace to the Calder Foundation in New York, where its status was confirmed. ■

How to Choose the Right Flea Market for You

By Mario Sbaraglia, semi-professional vendor and blogger

UNLIKE HUMANKIND, all flea markets are not created equal.

Learning to recognize the different types of markets, and how each serves a unique purpose, will save you time, money and frustration where your flea market business is concerned.

Learn to discern Exploring different markets to determine where to sell your wares should be a thought out process. It is not as simple as choosing a place because it has a lot of shopper traffic. You need to find venues that are not only bustling, but also are suitable for your merchandise and your price points.

Here are a few areas to consider: Sellers’ vs. Buyers’ Markets: These are not absolutes, but generalizations based on whether a flea market leans more towards being a better place for professionals to sell at or to buy from. Obviously, for the most part, you want to sell at sellers’ markets, where you are more likely to get better prices for your medium to high-end merchandise. However, if you sell inexpensive merchandise, or, if you do not mind “wholesaling” to other professionals, you might do well at buyers’ markets.

Year-round vs. Specialevent Markets: Special-event flea markets, held anywhere from once a year to once a month, often have festive feels that tend to put customers in spending moods.

If you have choices, a good strategy is to plan your yearly schedule around special-event flea markets and use the year-round ones to fill in the gaps.

New vs. Used Markets:

• There is a difference in Although most flea markets advertise that space prices within the same all types of merchandise are welcome, venue. I know of a flea market almost all are more favorable to new or that is open on Wednesdays and used goods. Learn which are which, and Sundays. The price on Sundays is $25 per space and on Wednesdays stick with your type. it is only $10. The reason is that, on Wednesdays, it is a buyer’s market Antiques Markets: swarming with dealers who prey Though many antiques flea markets upon desperate vendors. On Sundays, allow vendors who do not sell antiques, it becomes a seller’s market, teeming the shoppers they attract tend to be with collectors and end-users. Real staunchly loyal to all things old. If you pros only sell there on Sundays. do not sell antiques, you are in for an uphill battle at these markets.

• Do they segregate

Gather information The best way to gauge a flea market is to take a trip there and talk with both vendors and shoppers. You will find some flea marketers are guarded, but many will share private information with no hesitation. I never ask vendors how much money they make, but you would be surprised how much information a simple question like “how is it going?” will garner. Recently, at a flea market, I was set up next to a very nice, seemingly conservative, older gentleman. At the end of the day, while packing up, I asked how he did. I was surprised when he answered: “About $500. Not bad, but this is my only source of income.”

Here are some clues to look for when you visit a potential selling venue: • More than one vendor says: “The people are nice but they want everything for nothing.” Probably a buyer’s market.

• Several shoppers say: “The stuff here is beautiful but so expensive.” Seller’s market.

merchandise? If a flea market separates vendors by merchandise type, look for inequities. For example, if the used section of a particular market is smaller than the main section, off the beaten path or costs less per space, then the market is more favorable to new merchandise.

Do your homework When visiting flea markets at which you are considering setting up shop, ask questions, dig deep and take notes.

After visiting several venues, go over your notes, compare the pros and cons, and then make an informed decision.

Your livelihood is on the line. ■ Mario Sbaraglia is a semi-professional flea market vendor from Philadelphia, PA, and an Internet book dealer.
