Thursday, 3 DEC 2015 :: Updating my efforts to make money!!


Here I am again... after such a long time !  Thank you for your patience as I figure out the best path to the future...

I have been making plans, gathering supplies, looking for solutions, and now I am trying to see what will work best.  I finally have a new camera that has a way to shut off the flash, and 16 mp for better pictures.  I am hoping to learn all the details this weekend and post some new listings and photos in a number of places, including Etsy, eBay, fiverr, Facebook, Twitter, and wherever else I can upload them.  I need to check on my Pinterest pages, too... but my YouTube efforts will have to wait until I get my own computer.  :-(  

I will be very busy if the photos work out well.   I am excited about this opportunity to post a decent photo, and want to try new ways to present the things I want to sell.  I will share my lessons with you as soon as I can.

Today I also decided to revisit the website with Etsy shop and treasury widgets and will try to post one here.  If it doesn't work, I will have to edit and delete it.  We will see...  It didn't work on Facebook.  I may need to go through the website again... looking for the details.

If you want to check it out for your own marketing needs... go to   http://craftcult.com   and try one.

I do hope that your Christmas crafts and purchases are going well.  I haven't been able to buy too much over the years, so I have been learning about all the special sale days, like Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, and Giving Tuesday.   I am collecting information for my 2016 plans, and trying to decide how much money I need to have a great memory next year.  :-) 

I'm not sure how much I can sell this year, but I will do what I can.  I have an Etsy COUPON for the holidays to increase sales as much as I can...  I decided to offer 25% off to everyone...  You can use the code CHRISTMAS2015 through the month.  I think I made it valid through the 31st.  I will let you know if that is not correct.

I am really hoping to sell my digital copy of SERVANTS.  It is only $5, but one of my favorite personal writings.  It prints nice and displays well in an 11 x 14 black mat board.  A simple frame would be best, to draw attention to the words more than the frame.  I hope you will consider making it one of your purchases for this year.  I believe it has the potential to become one of our Christian Classics...  and I hope it does.   :-)


I am looking forward to building my sales sites finally.  Photos are really a problem, on some sites more than others.

Enjoy your day, and I hope your holidays will be filled with joy and hope and peace.





NOTE :: I tried to make a link to the widget, but it doesn't function here...  I will get back to you on why after I find out myself.
