Posted on 9 November 2017 by what sandra thinks

This is just more about yesterday’s post. Of course, feel free to skip over this if you’re done with me talking about that. Hell, I’m kind of done with me talking about that…

I think I know what I’m going to do with the name thing. BUT… and that’s a big but… I tried a test product design to get used to the interface… and it was confusing as hell! I may regret this whole thing. Of course, I don’t have to do this. I just thought an additional shop could mean more sales. Maybe I’m in too deep. Maybe I was spoiled with RedBubble… their site is so easy to use. This one (Zazzle) is crazy messy. Sure, there are more options… more customization for me and for the customer… but it seems to take so long. I was hoping to put up some holiday card designs but it’s taking forever… and I’ve only worked on one so far. Maybe it will get easier (and quicker) as I get used to it…

Anyway… mostly, I wanted to say thank you for your feedback… and stay tuned for a link, maybe, if I ever get this new shop stocked.

Oh… and by the way… right after I was thinking (and saying) that my Etsy shop would probably never get any business, I made my first sale today. I’m anxious as ever about it because my printer is a little old. I hope to hell it doesn’t die mid-print.

    Congrats on the first sale! That said, if the new platform is too complicated, it’s not worth the hassle.

    I visited your Etsy store and I love your cards 🙂 Are you planning on making other cards for the Holidays? I’d be interested in buying a couple for my family and friends, but I wouldn’t want them all to get the same snowflake one 😉

    Great job!!

    Yay, the curse is lifted, you’d better believe it!
    I think you’d better write a nice letter to Santa, asking for a new printer. I’m sure he would be very willing to find one in his sack. After all, you have been a good girl this year haven’t you?
