You’re welcome, John, and I’m glad we were able to help.
Starting up a Comic Con is a HUGE undertaking, as you’re about to find out if you have not already. I considered doing a small one here in the suburbs of Chicago, but the work involved is tremendous and a bit overwhelming.
The biggest thing is attractions what will draw folks in. Artists are one thing, but what guests you feature is another. And ADVERTISE. Invest every dollar you can in spreading the word. Don’t count on word of mouth alone. Look into your local Chamber of Commerce to help too. Businesses love supporting other businesses and that’s a network you can’t afford to miss.
