Ep. 016 - Strategies to Increase Craft Sales in a Recession

Recently I’ve noticed that there has been a lot of discouragement because of difficult times and low sales. Quite a few of the comments I read on social media are sharing the frustration of decreased sales. I get it. Believe me. In this episode I’m going to share some things you can do during a recession to help keep sales coming in. You don’t have to be discouraged by times and seasons because those will always come into your life and they will eventually move on. What you do in those times is the exciting part.

Ep. 015 - 10 Things Crafters can do to Create Recurring Income

What if I told you that you can have another source of income that you don’t even have to be awake for? You can have a recurring income without spending more hours making more things.  In this episode, I share what most of my online colleagues already know and implement in their own businesses. Every single one of these ideas will link to someone I know personally or has been recommended to me who has made it work.  Kind of like a train pulling out of the station, it takes a little time to get going. Once it does, it takes a LOT to stop it! The effort pays off in the end.   While I was recording I even thought of another one so you get an unintended bonus!  PS - We will be hosting a Crafty Biz Builders Summit on June 15th! A free online event with speakers all day covering different topics relating to online craft business. Be sure to register as space is limited. PPS - I also realize that it is ASL not ALS!😄🙄

Ep. 014 - Tips to Meet People and Enjoy Networking

Remember going to the park when you were a kid and making friends was simple? Going to school for the first time and learning everyone's name or seeing their favorite toy because they brought it to show-and-tell? Networking is honestly no different. It just has more dignified names but the technique is the same. In this episode, I'm going to share one of my absolute favorite things to do...meet people. Introverts, stay with me because this will help you out! These are tips that are basic enough for a playground but get overthought as we get older. It's not as hard as we make it. Hope you enjoy!

Ep. 13 - How to Stand Out from the Crowd as an Online Crafter

It’s no secret that I am a bigger fan of having your own real estate online but how can you do it and still stand out? I’m glad you asked! Regardless of whether you are a wall-flower or enjoy being the center of attention, you need your PRODUCT to get noticed when you are selling online. Today I have five suggestions with a bonus on how to do that.  Now, like anything in business, this is not an overnight-I-made-six-figures type of episode. It takes work to create a business and patience to grow one online.  If you keep that in mind, what I’m about to share with you will make the process easier. I also wanted to update you on an upcoming event. The Virtual Street Market will be hosting a Bootcamp on building an online craft business in February. On the 1st, 2nd & 3rd we will be showing you the ins and outs of running an online craft business so be sure to sign up for that at The Virtual Street Market.com [https://thevirtualstreetmarket.com/] and watch your email for more information.
