British Crafters

Shop Talk

Still a couple of spaces left to book a day for next week http://britishcrafters.blogspot.co.uk/
Why should you book?

  1. It’s a great low cost way to get people to your Folksy shop!
  2. On Twitter this week we had 182K views - you will be part of that!
  3. Our Pinterest Boards now generate sales via Twitter
  4. Stumbleupon Review is another great way of getting your name out there
  5. You get a photo on FB with a shop link and an @name building your own facebook presence, likers, network.
  6. Featured shops generally get good traffic, often sales, occasionally huge trade orders!
  7. It will be (honestly) the best £2.50 you invest in your Business next week!

Sue @dottiedesigns are you allowed to advertise a paid for service on the forum’s of Folksy I thought it was against the Terms and Conditions of useage.

You are not offering an item for sale from a folksy shop but a service which I believe we are not able to offer on folksy either by our folksy shop or the Folksy forum.

I’m sure British Crafters is welcome here, it’s working to promote handmade crafts and a lot of the people on there will be sending interest back to Folksy, so it can’t hurt us.

Dotty, I want to get 5 days but I can’t seem to fit into a full week, can I get 5 days and still get the discount if it is taken over a couple of weeks? Can’t blame a girl for asking. Thanks.

@EileensCraftStudio Wow! Probably not then! Mind you via me people get a lot of sales in their Folksy shops with people often making the Best Sellers list after a week with us so Folksy make quite a lot of money from the promotions too. If I get told off or the thread gets deleted then I guess the answer is no!

Keep up the good work Sue and British Crafters, you bring a lot of promotion for Folksy and individual artists. When I had slots with you my views were best they have ever been. Will be booking more.
