Can I Sell Merch at the Show?

Not only are all of Afton’s booking services free to the artist, but we also allow our artists to keep 100% of all of their merch sales. Many venues and tours will take a cut of your merch, we won’t. This is just one more way we help put more money back into your pocket.

Most of our venues have table space for artists to use for their merch. However, we do recommend that you bring a small table for your merch just in case. That way you know you’ll have the table space you need, and you’re not out of luck if the venue’s table is missing or broken.

IMPORTANT TIP:
We encourage you to use your merch table not only as a place to sell merch, but also as a place to meet and interact with fans! Invite the crowd back to your merch table after you play. Offer a free sticker to people that come talk to you at the merch table after your set, be creative and try some of the following strategies so that you have a LINE of people waiting at your merch table as soon as you get offstage.

Have you tried this? Your lead singer should walk off the front of the stage after the last song, if you announce this correctly, you’ll have a line of people following your lead singer back to your merch table. Take a look:
