Good afternoon. Loved all the fabulous makes and read all the news with interest. To add to the sales discussion, I have had only one sale this year so far on Folksy, even although I poured all my energies and listings into Folksy, while neglecting the other side where I have sold much more. Go figure. I know I have lots of room for improvement, so it is a work in progress. Congrats Brenda @teabreaks, Beautiful painting Georgina @GeorginaCrawfordArt, Gorgeous Copper and Agate necklace Carole @CarmicCreations, Stunning ring Deborah @DeborahJonesJewellery Hope everyone with difficulties or health problems are better soon. :two_hearts:

I’m exactly the same. Even when all my promotion leads here, I still do better on the other side.

I just said a prayer for your husband, Val @valerie . :pray: X
Well done Brenda @teabreaks! It’s nigh on impossible for sellers with low cost items to get on the best sellers list, so you can fairly give yourself a pat on the back. It is now a month since I sold anything on here, but then, of course, covid did rather play havoc with things.
In response to a challenge from 6 year old Ethan I have just had my hair cut for the first time since December 2019. She took off 9", and it’s still quite long really, but much neater.
I have listed another little tractor T-shirt

Afternoon all,
Glorious day again today, I wish the weather would make its mind up.
Fingers crossed for your husband Valerie @valerie :crossed_fingers:
Congratulations on making the best sellers list Brenda @teabreaks
Glad to see you back Francis @thatenamelguy. Hope you’re feeling much better.

The last of the fairies today. :grin:

Afternoon everyone :slight_smile: Can I ask a question for those of you who use Facebook? I’ve been trying to join some groups as my page, but it isn’t giving me the option and just automatically joins as my personal profile. I know I should be able to join these groups as a page as other pages are members, but I can’t figure out for the life of me how I’m supposed to do it! :sweat_smile:

Bracelets for today while I’m figuring it out :slight_smile:

thanks Joss @XStitcherJoss …indeed I have to sell a lot more to even make the list.xx
@HeartToSoulCards …if it is any consolation…no one on the other side can even find my shop…I only get an average of 5 views a day…and a very rare sale over there. I know I would get sales if only they found me but my E shop seems to be invisible and the bottom of the heap.xx
wow love that Braceet @MyosotisJewellery
@WestcountryCreations …two cream doughnuts and a slice of ginger cake…xx

Hello everyone! Congratulations on your sales Brenda @teabreaks and for all your great tips. Going to see what groups I can find. My last Folksy sale was April, I don’t think that’s too bad for me as not been here very long. I don’t get as many on the other side these days. I used to send loads to the USA before Covid, but haven’t set up international since then - I find it all a bit confusing these days with all the new rules.
Just going to go and tinker with my listings to see if it makes any difference.
Here’s mine for today,

Thank you for your lovely words about my copper and agate necklace, really kind of you. It seems like most of us are struggling to get sales at the moment - definitely need some input from the sales fairy! xx

Well done to everyone with sales.
Max @MaxPringJewellery not sure if you added my sale from yesterday to the tally. That would be a total of one sale for this month. Thank you.
Well done, Brenda @teabreaks. What an achievement! Thank you again for the FB tips you shared. I will be giving it a try.
All loved up to here.
