Selling all your pieces at the first meeting is a rather pleasant
predicament… If you do sell pieces before all your meetings, don’t
hand over the pieces until after the last meeting. When you go to
the 2nd meeting you can simply say “this particular piece is sold,
but I could make something in the same style at the same price”
Knowing that your pieces are selling will only make the store owner
more interested. I usually only sell my pieces to one store in each
area so that my work retains its exclusivity. I make my first
meeting with the store I am most interested in to avoid the problem
you mention.
