Building an Online Presence

Anyone who makes crafts to sell at some point has to consider what outlets they have for advertising and selling their projects.  Over the years i have used various options including having my work sold in craft shops, attending craft fairs, holding craft parties and more recently starting a Facebook page.  Due to my on/off crafting history i have not been able to use any of these methods of getting my work seen on any sort of consistent basis and so they tend to come and go.  


Now that i am once again in a productive mindset and also considering rebuilding contact with potential customers i have been looking at online selling.  I opened a Folksy account a little while ago but to be honest have not really added much to the stock on there as yet.  


Over the next weeks i intend to start trying to build up an online presence again, including updating the Folksy shop and the Facebook page - i believe the two will interact well together, but i guess only time will tell! 


The link to the Folksy Shop should you want to have a look is http://folksy.com/shops/junkified though i have only 2 items listed on there at the minute! 


The link to the Facebook Page if you would also like to drop by on there is facebook.com/FunkyJunkifiedCrafts.  Don't forget you can 'like' the facebook page to be kept up to date with my news and new products.


I guess i have quite a lot of work ahead of me with developing these online resources - I will of course keep you informed :)
