Did you spot that there is a new sponsored ad at the left side of this post???
<===========
Well let me introduce them......
Crafters Boutique is a new online outlet for crafters alike to showcase and sell their wares. I first found out about Crafters Boutique through their Facbook page Craft A Thon, where they have an amazing 6,996 likes. If you've not heard about these community type pages before then let me explain.
Craft A Thon place posts every day which give you as a crafter the opportunity to post a link to whatever the subject may be, it could be blogs, or your own facebook page, maybe what's your newest make or it could be a post based on a theme. Then other crafters can like your comment or pages or even share the post to their own likers so there is a greater potential to reach buyers. I do know there are a lot of people who aren't crafters who follow the page as they are looking to buy handmade gifts and what a great place to do it than here! It doesn't stop there as there are plenty of like minded crafters to offer advice and guidance and a great place to make some fantastic friends too.
From their facebook page Crafters Boutique has been created. Unlike those other huge 'handmade' gift websites (you know who I mean without mentioning them) who charge you listing fees and commission, this website only charges you a rental period so if you'd like to try selling for a month then you buy a month rental period WITH NO COMMISSION!
They promote Crafters Boutique at every opportunity so already you are getting advertising to 6,000+ potential buyers. Dont forget fellow crafters appreciate handmade more than most and they too like to buy handmade.
I've read some great reports and experienced this great community and their new website so why not pop over and see for yourself......and dont forget to say Hi they're a friendly bunch :D
Thank you CRAFTERS BOUTIQUE for advertising with me!
Hi Emma, great post, agree with everything you have said.
ReplyDeleteI've been selling with Crafter's Boutique since just after they started and sold more items than the other well know handmade website!
They also have a blog and advertise in Craftseller magazine and when you first open a shop they send you 20 free flyers to advertise your shop!
