If you have been following me on my recent journeys you will know that I've been exploring the world of etsy.com. While surfing the blogs recently I noticed that a fellow artist had a gadet that I found very interesting and extremely useful as a marketing tool. To the right of her blog was a Etsy Mini, which when the viewer clicks on one of the images appearing there featuring the artist's work they are taken to the artists etsy shop. For those of us that are just getting into the tech side of things in the effort to market our wares, this is a stroke of genius!
Now we can express our views as artists and if those who read our blogs wish to support us by buying our products they have but to click on one of our images and can instantly become a patron. You will notice to the right of this blog that I have set up my own Etsy Mini and I strongly suggest if you have an etsy shop to do likewise. "How is this done ?" you may be asking well I will give you the directions on how to go about setting one up. Go to your etsy find the etsy mini tab which is located at the bottom left of your page on the sidebar. Clicking on this tab will take you to a page that will explain to you how to set up your mini and give you all the options available for setting one up. All the work is already done for you it's a simple matter of cutting and pasting code another example of how convenient and easy etsy makes it to sell art on the Internet cheers to them!
As I have mentioned in earlier posts I will continue to let you know about the ins and outs of etsy as I come across them. If you have any tips by all means drop me a line I'd love to hear from you! Until next time...
