It’s been maybe a year since ive been on to the folksy forums and i cant believe how much has changed!!  
I have found except for christmas time, unless i come on the forums i dont really sell anything? I have so much stock so what shall i try? a sale? a giveaway?  
So how has it all changed? what do i need to know?

Some advice would be great

Thanks Sally xx

Hi Sally, welcome back 😄

There’s a thread here full of tips for sellers, it’s well worth a read [If you could share one tip with new sellers, what would it be?](http://talk.folksy.com/t/if-you-could-share-one-tip-with-new-sellers-what-would-it-be/66)

The thing with selling online is you need to promote your work and have a presence and a following. I find facebook is the best place for this, others swear by twitter. Have a read of the tips thread and good luck!

I agree with Stephie, promotion is key. I’ve bought one of your bags a while back now, and it was because I saw it on the forum or I wouldn’t have known it existed. If you haven’t the time to spend promoting, that will be the reason you’re not selling much!
