Travel Marketing

I wrote earlier asking opinions of marketing travel size personal products for men, women and children at?
flea markets. Again, they would be from upscale companies. The responses varied from excellent to poor idea. The reason I a posing a similar question is because a variety of people participate on this site. Would selling on e-bay, distributing brochures to local stores, gyms,stylists be a more profitable venture? My husband and I are very excited about selling products such as these because they make good gifts for hosts and hostesses, moms and dads, bed and breakfast owners, real estate and insurance brokers and more, esp. for people on a budge because they will be sold either individually or in pretty sets,no set costing more than $15.00. The airline restriction for liquids is not a biggie, because who people go away for weekends generally travel by car. In conclusion, would this then be better than having a flea market booth? Marketing thru a website would be too expensive. ($1000?) We are professionals trying to creatively earn extra, tho we have no idea if we would.
I think that the best place to sell these would be at Marathon Expos. Thousands of people go thru these expos and many of them have travelled to the city the race is in and may well need some of the products you are selling. To become a vendor at an expo, you go to the marathon’s website (you can put in a search for any big city marathon – Los Angeles, Boston, ect.,) and there is usually a place to click on expo and then “become a vendor.”
Another thing you might try is to rent a Kiosk in a mall.
