"Since reading your
books, I have implemented many of the ideas. I am now happy to report
that I have had some surprising success at the "I just can't believe
its a flea market" here in Santa Fe. My hang cards, booth design,
and even my products themselves have been changed by your books. I have
only been there 5 partial days and have sold about 4 times what I sold
in the equivalent time last year. I changed the color of the walls, the
height of the tables, the displays, the hang cards, the pricing and more.
So, IT WORKS!"
Julie Anderson, CostumeSalon.com
"I
had a sporadic retail craft business with which I was feeling burnt out.
After reading James Dillehay's books, my business took on a new life.
I changed my product slightly and the response was remarkable! My first
order was triple what I had planned for, and other orders are pouring
in! Because of the techniques I learned from him, my business is thriving."

MARBLE, Chamisa Hill Designs

"After reading SELL
YOUR CRAFTS ON EBAY, I added one word to a current auction title on eBay

NANCY COOKE, author The Art of the Tile, ww.ArtoftheTile.com

“James
was a guest speaker on our Guerrilla Marketing conference call and he
blew me away with what he knows about selling on the Internet.”
JAY CONRAD LEVINSON, author Guerrilla Marketing
series, over 14 million copies sold in 38 languages
"An
astonishing amount of usable information, crammed into so few pages! James
Dillehay has an amazing talent for getting right to the point, with a
minimum of “geekese.” Of the entire list of computer instructional
manuals I have read, this one would top the list. I would not hesitate
to recommend it . . . even to my mom."
LAPIDARY JOURNAL
“I survived
my very first craft show last weekend, a tiny production in a rural fire
hall, where all the vendors knew or were related to all the customers.
Out-of-towners on either side of me sold nothing, but I sold 12 times
my booth fee, partly because my stuff is good, but partly because I really
researched presentation in James Dillehay’s books.” ~
Joann Wheeler
