As of late, all I'm doing is trying to promote my shop to anyone I come across. It's very hard promoting yourself. So far, I've gone around my town and handed out my business cards. I'm debating setting up a booth at the local farmer's market. I think it would be a wonderful way to get myself out there...but at the same time...I have to have quite a bit of inventory. I'm trying my best to do so, but with my son lately, it's been difficult. He's been very vocal and grumpy. I do manage to sew something everyday...even if it's just one closure stitch...it's something. (I have to keep telling myself that) I have to just be patient and take one step at a time.
I did apply for several teams on Etsy (Fun and Friends Promotion Team, QuiltQuiltsQuilts, Crafty Mama's, Boy Oh Boy, and Mummypreneur. I'm hoping to get advice, feedback, promotion, foot-traffic, friends, and ideas. I'm also hoping that by handing out my cards, people will spread the word about my items. It's just taking time. I hope to find my nitch in this selling world.
