What kind of financial arrangments do you have? The guy that runs
the shop is totally cool with me setting up whenever I want, as long
as I'm not flaky about it...just so the customers know when to
expect me there. He even said that while I'm not there, he'll take
the money for items that I have for sale, as long as I have a way to
lock it up so the customers have to go ask him for the stuff...he
works in the back room and wouldn't want people walking in the front
and taking my stuff.
I'll probably set up Thursday evening and Friday and Saturday
afternoons. Besides henna, I'll set up a table with inexpensive
body piercing jewelry and probably some Indian beaded purses, etc...
I assume that a percentage would work out best...but wanted to hear
what was the standard percentage. I normally give 10-20% at my
gigs, but I'm thinking this would be acceptable to go higher since
he's actually willing to make appointments for me.

Thanks,
Erika
