New Horizons

Branching Out

I have been busy lately trying to set up my online presence with blogging, venues, fanpages, profiles, social networks, and pinning. In the process of doing so I am getting farther away from my original plan for myself and my business. 


When I first started down this path, I pictured myself running a humble booth at the Farmer's Market with my little ladies smooching up the customers. Possibly having a few of my items in little shop's under consignment. I started my Etsy store just to get the ball rolling....and rolling it did!


I'm not selling a ton of stuff yet but I am doing ok..at least I think. More so than anything I find myself wrapped up in my online world more than my creating world :( which leaves me kind of sad. Not that I don't enjoy the challenge of it all! I enjoy blogging for sure and I enjoy selling online, its just a lot to process in a short amount of time. I don't do anything at a slow pace ;P and unfortunately I don't process this aspect of my business easily.


So over the next couple of weeks I will be setting aside learning new online ways to just maintaining what I already have going and creating in my studio, for I have a promising meeting next week with a local business owner about selling some of my items in their gift shop. This is what I had originally wanted all along! So I better stop sidestepping around it and make it happen! It is time for me to branch out of my little operation.


I'm pretty excited about my new prospect and I hope you are too! and of course I will be blogging about my meeting :)
