Key Talking Points
Julie has changed her mindset to realize that you have to get a ton of 'Nos" before you get a yes.  
Recognize when you are experiencing imposter syndrome. 
You have to take the gut punch of rejection and keep going.
Turn the negative into a positive.  
You have to have a failure rate, and take the shots.
Evaluate and talk with other artists to see what is working for others.
Have some friends mill about in your booth to pique interest.  Do not be on your phone!
Consider giving a survey to find out what the audience or email subscriber wants.
Test different ways of doing things (A/B testing).
Mindset is the #1 thing to watch.
#2 Figure out how to turn it into a positive
Consider having a document that you can actually write what you want to say to get it out of the way (never share)
Create a "Fabulous File" to put all of the positive things people have said about your work. 
Write down what hurt you and burn the note.
