FYI
It pains me to say it, but the public needs to know.
I have a small business that started as a hobby and grew. I sell Ti-Pi Night Lights, and we have travelled the Pow Wow trail for years.
But with vendor registration getting ridiculously high, eg. Rama is now $400. I have made the difficult decision to stop travelling to Pow Wows and move my sales online.
Here is a breakdown of the costs for just one event:
Registration $400
Hotel $400
Food $300
Gas $150
Total $1,250
I’m lucky if I make $600, and the last time that happened was before COVID.
It is hard to understand when some of these casinos are bringing in $1 million a day, yet small businesses are being priced out of participating.
I am truly disappointed. We loved being on the Pow Wow trail and meeting all of you.
Thanks for the good old days.
