What Marketing Creativity is About
Marketing Creativity is here to help you market your hobby business into a handmade success. My goal is to help business owners (particularly parents looking for a flexible career) work from home doing something that they love. I have been selling on Etsy and writing about my sales and strategies for the last two years. This blog was born after I wrote my first post:
450 Sales on Etsy in the First Three Months of Business: Here’s How
I shared that article in the handmade forums and on Handmadeology.com, and the response was overwhelming! I’ve gone on to write many more articles, some of the most popular being (from newest to oldest):
- What I’ve Learned about Marketing after 2 Years of Business and Thousands of Sales
- The Do’s and Don’ts of Product Photography
- Reduce Your Influence, Increase Your Inspiration
- How to Gain 100 New Customers for Your Shop
- 1,000 Sales and Counting in my First Year of Business
- Everybody’s Plotting to Support Me
Marketing Creativity has been growing ever since. I want to thank you for stopping by and offering your continued support and encouragement.
And I am always, Always, ALWAYS! looking for hard-working, like-minded artists. So, please say “hello” by contacting me on Facebook, Twitter, or by email (mrslisajacobs (at) gmail (dot) com). You’re only a stranger once. All the best!
