Catchy business cards

As a blogger and an online seller, I need a catchy business card that represents me and my business. Previously, I had my business cards made from Sugar Prints in Multiply, it’s scrapbook-inspired and I find it cute. I used it when I attended events but sometimes I envy some bloggers with more eye-catching cards than mine. My card is light-colored so it gets overwhelmed by other colorful business cards. Another thing is, I only have one card used for blogging events and for online selling purposes, to save money, LOL! But this time, I want to separate cards for blogging and business purposes.

Good thing I know some mommy bloggers who are into designing and business card printing services, maybe I can avail some mommy discounts too. =)

Promoting my online shop

Here I am again, creating an online buzz about my online shop that sells fashion accessories. Sales these past few months are kind of slow. Maybe because competition is stiff nowadays with a lot of online shops sprouting not only in Multiply but also in Facebook. I still refuse to migrate selling in Facebook because Facebook for me, is more of a personal account and I reckon this is also the case for others. So I’m happy with my current online shop in Multiply and swore to myself that I will not tag my friends in Facebook about my wares. I’ll just find other ways in increasing my sales without being too pushy and with a code of ethics in mind.

One way to promote my online shop, Pink Fortune, is through classifieds. Just like including our blogs in link directories, listing our online shops in different classifieds and directories will make it more visible to prospective customers and buyers. It’s also free so there’s nothing to lose, just hardwork and patience because creating and posting classifieds can be quite tedious especially when manually entering the details. But I promise, you’ll gain a sale/s from these listings. I once read that in sales, one must not stop marketing his/her products.

Pink Fortune’s new look and new uploads

It’s been a more than a year since I changed my online shop’s layout, Pink Fortune. Maybe one of the reasons of my online selling hiatus for a few months is because I got tired of the new layout. I asked Ann of Design.Create.Art to revamp my site last April, but she got busy until now. Finally, my Multiply online shop has a fab new look and I love it to bits!

Multiply supports online sellers!

It has been an issue since last year that Multiply deletes online shops since it’s a violation of their terms of service. Well, online sellers have a reason to rejoice because Multiply now supports online sellers. On your account info, you can now choose the account whether it’s personal or online shop so that you can properly identify your site. Below is Multiply’s official statement:

Until now, running a shop on Multiply has technically been a violation of our terms of service. As long as you didn’t spam anyone though, we simply looked the other way and let you go about your business. I know that this policy didn’t exactly give you all a lot of comfort, so I’m happy to announce that we’ve updated our terms of service to reflect the fact that running a shop on Multiply is now an officially endorsed activity.
