While we’re cleaning up our websites, our jewelry making practices, and our business knowledge this spring, let’s add some info on alternative selling sites.
Sometimes it makes more sense to use a pre-made sales site rather than set up your own website if you’re just getting started in sales. Sometimes you’ve got a website, but you want to handle sales separately. And sometimes a selling site makes sense because of the extra traffic it can help generate.
Please don’t think that using a selling site is a free ride though. They are not going to automatically bring the buyers to you…you will have to dedicate time and energy into promoting your online shop, or nothing will happen. Count on it!
