Survey, New Cards & Stickers

I just made a bunch of new cards. I wasn't planning on using the new decorative paper I got yet, but I got inspired. I made some holiday ones - one for Halloween (even though it's kind of late to list), Christmas, winter holidays and Thanksgiving/autumn. I have to remind myself to make some Hanukkah ones too. I celebrate Christmas and Hanukkah, but I forgot to make Hanukkah cards last year and I have some ideas for some. Here's an in the process photo of some of them:



It's good I'm making new items because I just took a bunch of items off my shop because I'm putting them in a shop, the Market House. If you're ever near Meadville, PA, you should stop in. My display's not set up yet, but I at least decided on a table and will probably set it up next week.

I got my Moo.com business cards and stickers in the mail. The business cards were free to celebrate Moo.com's birthday, but I paid for the stickers. I have photos of my items on each card and sticker(each one is unique, I transferred my photos from flickr). I think I'll give a few out with each order. I especially love the stickers. They're so cute! It's fun to see my items made in to stickers and I think they'll be great to go along with my orders.



My other business cards just have my logo, which is nice, but I decided to put my blog and twitter on the back for these. I think it will direct more traffic to my blog (which I don't really advertise a lot outside of Etsy). I also like that people will see at least one of items before even looking at my shop. I love my logo, but people can't tell what I sell from it or what my items look like. I'll probably alternate which cards I use.

I'm trying to learn more about the audience of my shop and what my demographic is. I figured the easiest way to do this is to take a survey. If you're reading this blog, I'd love if you took my survey. It's only 10 questions and it only take a couple of minutes. It will help me a lot to know where to promote my shop. You also get 10% off any item in my shop (just make sure to enter your e-mail address).

Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, all pink items in my shop will have a percentage donated to charity. I'll go in to more details about it another entry. I also made a youtube video which I'll embed in another entry. So many updates. :)
