Daily Listing Challenge and Group Promotion Thread July 2024

Morning everyone :slightly_smiling_face:

Really useful to know you can link Instagram to Pinterest and definitely now on my to do list. Thanks for sharing Sarah @dotterypottery

I have a Pinterest business page and find it quite easy to use and traffic from it is good although the users seem predominantly American and I only sell to UK. Obviously something I need to think about …

Another clay bird today - paler in colour to the one you may remember from last month

evening all, hope you have all had a nice day :slight_smile: just picking up on what Sarah @dotterypottery said. It’s true that pinning a lot from a single site in one go comes up as spam on Pintrest and will reduce the number of ties your pins are shown. It’s better to pin just a few at a time.

I only pin my own and those I have loved previously so probably 5-7 a day. Also just to note that when you pin direct from folksy the link to the actual item is in the pin so people can scroll pinterest and if they want more details the link will take them straight to your item. If you just rely on sharing from instagram there’s not ususally a link to your items so the link will just take them to your instagram page.

Hope that helps :slight_smile: xx

Happy sale Dane Mel @aquilacrafts and Sue @SueTrevor.

No rain yesterday but dull all day. Today. Lee of the same. The bird feeder is almost empty again, thought there would have been plenty for them to eat elsewhere but No! Have the sparrows and blue tits queuing up every morning, or glaring and tapping on the window if empty. Almost as bad as Shiloh and his biscuit barrel.

Another ephemera pack today

Morning all. Looks wet out but not sure if it rained enough to not have to water, will go check after a cuppa.
My daughter and I are heading out to Aquafit this morning, not been for quite a while, so hopefully not too exhausting.

Morning everyone, It’s been raining overnight here and we’re sorting somethings out in the garden, fortunately we have a shelter so they should be alright, I moved the delicate things back indoors last night.

Hi everyone, I am new to folksy and it is really lovely to meet you all. I found this thread after I set up my store last night, I only have one listing so far but I am really loving the community feel and all the brilliant advice on pinterest. I have shared some love and will have a busy day today adding more listings! I just tried to include my link and it said I cannot include a link :thinking:

Hi Corrina @quaverlyric and welcome to the thread. I’m not sure what device you’re using but basically you have to copy and paste the url from the item into the reply box on the thread. Make sure there is a hard return after any text though or it won’t work! That’s the way I do it but others do it in a different way.
If you still have problems come back and I’m sure others will help.
I’ve added this for you so people can heart in while you work out how to do it!
