Promotional Efforts
It is one thing top promote a show to fellow dealers, but to ensure a successful show, a sizable effort needs to be made to promote the show to the general public. We have done that, for our 3rd show we had nearly 900 collectors attend. Almost instantly becoming one of the largest card shows in the State.
Many card show promotors only list their show on the public card show search websites. Of course, we have done that as well, but we also have created this website to drive traffic to our shows. We will use a number of online avenues to promote the shows, including paid advertising and social media, to further draw the public to my shows. We have committed to spending a sizable amount promoting the shows to develop a loyal following of collectors. We appear to be well on track to do so after only 3 shows.
At each show there will be a drawing for a $100 shopping spree. The $100 shopping spree giveaway will benefit dealers each show, as the lucky winner will have some extra money spend with some of you. The drawing should create a little extra buzz each show.
This show is quickly becoming a must attend show for dealers and collectors alike.
Dealer Information
Tables are 8 footers and include 1 chair for $60, 2 or more tables are only $50 each.
Dealers will have plenty of room to operate behind their table and the aisles will be wide enough that those attending the show can move around freely.
Building is air conditioned and heated, so a comfortable atmosphere for all.
We will be charging a nominal $2 entry fee, with some of it used to offer the $100 shopping spree and to do some good in the community by making a donation each show to HAWS Waukesha (Human Animal Welfare Society). Admission is free to 12 and younger and to all after 1pm.
Concessions will be offered at each show.
Show hours will be 10am to 3pm, with dealer set up starting at 8:00am for each show.
A Little About Your Host
My name is Shawn Kramlich. I fell in love with baseball cards in 1975 when my dad brought home packs of baseball cards. I have been buying, selling and trading ever since.
As a teenager, the first card show I attended was at Gonzaga Hall. I was amazed by the selection available. A few years later, I began selling as there as a dealer. I also regularly did the Serb Hall shows, the State Fair shows and many others in the late 80's early 90's.
I was away from the hobby for a long time, watching my kids grow up. Then a few years ago I dove back in, and immediately fell in love all over again. I have been setting up at the Oak Creek and Madison shows the past few years.
Since I returned, I was happy to see a whole new generation of collectors very active with Pokemon and other TCG Cards, in addition to sports cards.
I love the Oak Creek and Madison shows and will continue to set up there, so this show will never conflict with either of them. Just excited to be able to offer everyone another quality show in Waukesha.
Between my experience as a collector and dealer and my marketing background, I can ensure everyone will have a great experience at my shows. Hope you decide to participate in my shows.
