Branding - helpful post!

Most of us think about promoting and increasing our sales, our following, any interest we can muster.
For some of us, it takes only a small part of our thoughts, for others, it consumes us ... whatever percent of brain power you devote to the sale of your craft, always be on the lookout for information.

I found this post on etsytreasurechest.blogspot.com, one of the creative blogs I follow and I felt it was worth sharing with others interested in promotion... aren't we all.

I told Amanda that her post made more sense to me than any other article I have read on the topic of branding. Check it out and good luck to us all!

  1. Teri, thank you for commenting on my blog. NEVER HANG IT UP! We are all on a road of growing, learning and challenging ourselves. Some of us have been on the road longer than others! It is the journey that is important, not the resulting product. Don't compare yourself to any one else. Just keep challenging yourself and feel the joy of creating while moving ahead. I look forward to seeing your next endeavors.
