I've had some luck my online store but I can't afford to open more stores in hopes of getting a broader marketplace. I had a lot of luck with a house party before the Christmas holidays. I still enjoy making jewelry and am continuing to swim in hopes of making more sales.The Gemmed Giraffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02496841441350928277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193856396971726282.post-25928499295991473462012-02-14T09:46:57.345-05:002012-02-14T09:46:57.345-05:00Thanks for this reassuring blog posting!

My store went live in December so yes, I'm new to online sales. One important thing for me to have my store though is I hand out cards to everybody I meet, especially my friends, family and old co-workers. I have customers that regularly come to my home where I set up my kitchen table like I will my first show in March and because they've already looked at my product on-line they have a pretty good idea what they want! So I believe that even if I have low sales it's a very important link in this chain for me. I'll have to learn how to swim I suppose!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335102872634197243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193856396971726282.post-70210971056851532432012-02-14T09:30:26.871-05:002012-02-14T09:30:26.871-05:00So true I often wonder why sales are so slow onlin...So true I often wonder why sales are so slow online yet if I do a house party everyone buys and often a few pieces at a time. It definitely is a case of being able to pick it up and see it - my Mom always told me you don't see with your hands but I have to say the more I am in this business the more I realise that you do "see" with your hands.UniqueNiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04989923373265212790noreply@blogger.com
