Your Own Online Shop Lesson 1

jolenemac88,

Prior to starting your very own online store, you will have to do a couple of things. First of all, you may want to organize all the pictures of your items you want to list in folders by groups/types of products. For instance, I have my sorted into folders called earrings, gloves, necklaces, scrunchies, etc. That way when I begin inputting my items into the store software I can put in all of my earrings at the same time and not have to be looking all over my computer for the pictures I want to include with the listings.

Summertime Great For Crafting

jolenemac88,

Summertime is great for crafting! Not only is it too hot to do much of anything outdoors here in Florida we do have air conditioning. So, rather than worry about not making any money by not going to festivals and shows because it is just too darn hot to sit outside under a white canopy tent hoping people will come by and make your day. Instead, I prefer to sit on my comfortable bed with my laptop and post articles to my blogs, upload any products that haven’t already been added to my online stores and make new products to have ready for the Fall season.

Northeast Florida Craft Vendors

jolenemac88,

Northeast Florida Craft Vendors really need more opportunities to sell their handcrafted wares. South and Central Florida really gets all the good events with tons of people attending until all the snow birds start heading back up north. It would be great if more of the state parks would start holding events all year long.
