Instruction manual

In order for your business to succeed, decide what primarily interests buyers and is in greatest demand. Surely there are large needlework stores in your city, go there and provide some samples of your creativity. By what you buy, you can understand what things are the most popular. Typically, these are bedspreads and blankets made in the style of a patchwork, a variety of curtains, napkins, tablecloths, scarves, clothes in ethnic, rustic style. Jewelry made of stones, plastics, leather, knitted clothes for babies, costumes for dogs, souvenirs and so on are also in demand. If you like to embroider, then do not invest your work in large paintings. They are very laborious, expensive for buyers and are rarely sold. Usually embroideries are made to order.

The most optimal way is to sell your product via the Internet.

You can find your buyer at various online fairs, auctions, and in stores. Creating your own website is not necessary at all, but you need to have a page in a magazine. This page should be your face. If you like it, then in 50% of cases, the visitor to the page will become a buyer. The page should lead to your account in the online store. Otherwise, how can a visitor buy your products?

The success of the page depends on a well-designed portfolio. All images of your products that you place in it must be of high quality. Your crafts should look “tasty” for the buyer, so that he imagines how he can use your product in his life. This will be facilitated not only by the signatures to the lots, but also by the content of the pictures. If this is jewelry - make a beautiful portrait, which will depict a beautiful girl in your items.

Leave links to your portfolio on thematic forums. Just try to make them look harmonious, otherwise the moderators will delete them and block your accounts.

When placing your products on the pages of online stores, follow these rules:

- Place your products in those rubrics where potential consumers find them.

- Describe in detail your product, and tell us what benefit the buyer will receive from the purchase of this product.

- Without pictures, your product is unlikely to be bought, no matter how seductive the description.

- Payment and delivery terms should also be easy to understand.

- The more lots you set, the more likely they are to choose something. Buyers always follow these links, and it is better to let them choose from your products than compare them with others.

- When sending goods, make a small surprise to the buyer. This will increase your credibility in his eyes and he will surely become your customer.

Useful advice

Become a walking ad for your creativity. Put on your products and wear them everywhere and always. So you can not only find potential buyers, but also see if your products are really as good as you think.
