Hello Farmgirls,
I have found that I can not keep up with running two businesses. I was doing handmade and my marketing business. But, with a chronic illness like Lyme it is impossible to do both.
I was selling on Etsy but they have made so many changes that my sales went out of existence and I got so discouraged that I only have a few items in the shop now.
That has enabled me to focus totally on my marketing side of my business and it is taking off like never before!!!

I have a great plan in place for my handmade business now that I took time to see what was the best way to market my products. I now have products in a retail location in TN and FL. Wahoo!
I still sell on Etsy and am learning so much about how to attract buyers to my shop. Etsy changes things up regularly and that keeps us on our toes.
I love helping other seller's on Etsy so I promote them for a small monthly fee. You can't do everything yourself and having a helping hand makes the journey so much easier.
Take a peek at my hollow book shop and let me know your thoughts. If you were to buy one who would it be for?

We are now getting sales of our note cards! So we stocked the shelves with more designs. We also added more of our hollow books. This is so exciting to finally have our products in stores.
