Have you been using the internet to sell your crafts online? If not, why not? What other tool can you use to reach millions of potential customers at a cost of a few dollars a month?
One of the best arguments that I know for marketing and selling crafts online is that with traditional selling, you usually have to spend a lot of money to make any kind of profit. For instance, if you want to sell at craft fairs, you have to send in booth rental fees months in advance of the show dates. If you do several shows a year, that’s a lot of cash tied up that could be otherwise available.
Expenses involved in selling online are relatively less, in fact much less. The real investment is in the time it takes you to set up and publish content to a web site (either your own or an online storefront like Etsy or Artfire), listing auction pages, getting product reviews and getting incoming links.
The big challenge with selling online is that it’s so easy to find your time eaten up by the distracting influences of the net. That’s why you need a focused plan of daily marketing activities and action steps to keep you on track.
