Starting a new venture
Today will mark a new adventure in my life. I will be pursuing the dream of a crafting store. An Etsy store. Today I begun starting the never ending research. Seeing what others have learned and are willing to share. I think my biggest fear is duplicating or copying what others have done. I have always tried to have my own ideas but that doesn't always happen or I change up what others are doing.
Research seems to play a big part on what one needs to do. checking and seeing what others are posting is there merchandise selling, what type of photo's they are using and the tags (I'm really not sure at this point what they are exactly) One of the best advice I have see so far is get up and dress for work, it doesn't so much mean that you have to look the best but don't hang around in your pjs all day. If your dressed for bed you will be tired and want to lay around all day, this is very true. Another piece of information that I believe will be helpful is to have a plan for the week schedule each day accordingly, such as on Monday make cards, Tuesday make pictures, Wednesday home decor, ect... I believe this will help so one one get so bored. As your grow I believe their will be adjustments that will need to be made. My plan of attack will be as follows and not necessarily in this order. I'm at this point just putting down thoughts.
Research
- research etsy see what products are out there.
- look further into the stores that you find, there fb page, pinterest, ect.
- pricing
- demand
- styles
- variety
Products
- Variety pack of cards
- Mini albums
- Home decor
So this is the beginning and I excited to see where I go from here. God help me!!!
