How My Followers Saved My Business & My Sanity! Kidderminster Part 2!

Hopefully the last ever negative Vlog I'll post! This is day 2/ part 2 of the Kidderminster Vlog.

I took Filthy Fruit and Rebel Lemon to what was advertised as the Kidderminster Canal & Food Festival — and it turned out to be nothing like what I was sold.

I paid £500 for a trading pitch, there was no advertising, no connection to the canal, and most locals didn’t even know it was happening.

In this vlog, I take you behind the scenes of the weekend, show you what really happened, and why this “festival” was such a huge disappointment for traders and visitors alike.

I am fortunate enough to have grown an incredible army of subscribers who absolutely saved my sanity this weekend and allowed me to break even. I know the organiser is going to be disappointed to see this and honestly at the time I didn't realise how bad it really was and didn't communicate my dissatisfaction. I wish them well for the rest of the season and I am sure with some advertising and consideration for some operation aspects, they can put on a great event.

The security team, medical team and electricians were all wonderful and really on the ball. Thanks to them for stepping up and helping out when the organiser was nowhere to be seen.

💛 Filthy Fruit – Fresh fruit cups with ridiculous toppings
🍋 Rebel Lemon – Freshly squeezed lemonade made to order
