I am a Basic Folksy member, and find that this level of membership fits my needs, so I am relieved that there is no increase in the costs for this. I hope this continues to be the case as ‘unlimited listings’ which is the main advantage for Folksy Plus members as far as I can see, is not an advantage for my way of working which is slow, with a small output - I don’t want to be a ceramics factory. Additionally the limit of five images also suits my work. So Basic is great for me, and I do hope it continues to be available. Basic membership is also a great way of encouraging new people to sign up, as they can dip a toe in the water and assess whether Folksy is for them. All in all, the options offered by Folksy are great value in my opinion, and I have always found the support excellent. Long may it continue.
I have the plus account and always have less than 40 items in my shop, I like having the 3 larger images at the top of the page which are only available to plus account members and I need the extra photos especially when making dolls. I also think it’s really good value and if I ever make anything quick I will be able to list unlimited amounts in my shop … picturing myself running those bears up on machines at record speed…in reality at the minute I’m managing around 2 items per month
I agree with Brenda @teabreaks, it’s still great value for unlimited listing. There’s things we all want from folksy, more advertising etc and that all costs money.
Hiya Camilla @folksycontent I just wanted to say that it’s lovely to see all your faces on the Folksy Sellers email today and the blog with the write ups
Hi Camilla @folksycontent - I pay for my Folksy Plus account annually at the moment. Will this fee stay as it is at the moment or will it increase to the £75?
Sorry if I’m being dense, but this does not mention, sellers who have always paid annually up to now. Are we staying at the same fees, or are we being increased to £75? You only mention the "new " annual plus account, but my current annual plus account is paid up until the end of July… @folksycontent
Annual Folksy Plus Account:
Sellers now have the option to join our Annual Folksy Plus account. This costs £75 (a £15 reduction on our monthly plan over the same period) and is charged once a year.
Legacy Annual Account
Fees will remain the same for sellers on our legacy annual accounts.
