Ryan & Becca compare the pros & cons of offering "free" shipping for your online shop. Becca prefers offering free shipping and Ryan prefers adding shipping charges at the end, making for an interesting debate. Let us know your thoughts and how you approach this question.

Listener Questions
On this episode:
- When setting up your booth, is an outside L or inside L better for bringing people in? Does it matter? @thistlemoorpottery
- How do y'all feel about being put directly next to another potter at a mixed art show? I personally would prefer that there is some space between each medium, so people's minds are directly comparing artists work. -anonymous
- I’m struggling between free shipping (built into price), or additional shipping and handling fees. Which is preferable to buyers?? @kerripainterart
