Beading Businesses
Q: Does anyone out there sell beaded jewelry on-line? If so, what has been the
most successful way to advertise your products? I just started selling my
stuff, so I'm looking for any possible tips I can get.
A:You are too cheap. if it is because you dont value your work like you
should, you need more selfrespect. if it is because you use cheap
materials, switch to more expensive ones. you are selling necklace with
lampwork beads for 14$, and girls here are selling lampwork beads for
hundreds of $. i was just like that, always thinking i have to get back
money that i spent on material, and thats all. after some time, one girl
asked me: "whats wrong with this necklace when its so cheap?" so i
started thinking:) if people want cheap jewelry, they will go to the
market and buy it there, and if they want handmade jewelr, they are
ready to pay for it. and just one small advice, dont put screw-in clasp
on bracelets, it is very hard to close them with just one hand, and not
everybody has a man to do it
