Connect To Potential Buyers – Utilize Unconventional Methods

Connect To Potential Buyers – Utilize Unconventional Methods

Running low on ideas for contacting potential buyers?  Check out those who made the “Handmade Pledge” on Etsy.com.

Just click on the “Community” tab from your Etsy shop and navigate over to the “Handmade Pledge” on the left sidebar.  You’ll see contact information for 37,000 Etsy lovers and counting.

Our team thinks this is one of the best ways to find new contacts for two reasons:

1.  True Etsy Love.  These potential buyers love Etsy and all things handmade.  They even signed a handmade pledge!

2.  Contact Me! You will see some of the contacts don’t have a URL next to their name, but others do.  This means a URL isn’t required – they are willing to give it out!  These contacts are not likely to get offended when an Etsy seller contacts them, especially if it’s done in the right way.

Networking and making new contacts is the best way to get your shop noticed.  For Etsy sellers, we think the best marketing is the kind that is done by you directly – so make some new contacts!

   My journey in creating art began when I was in high school. I was painting oil reproductions of famous artists. I studied engineering after high school. When my daughter who also plays the guitar grew up and saw my paintings, she inspired me to continue.

   For 3 years I joined painting courses in a private painting studio. Opened various personal and joint exhibitions and sold my paintings in expressionist style. At that time I also took clases for wooden painting and love to design ornaments.

   I enjoy knitting and painting and mostly creating fancy and trendy knit work by using different objects and by using all the techniques I have learned just like working in a painting studio, using the color harmony and the golden ratio.

   So all my creations are original. I always knit thinking that the owner will look beatiful and charming. You can consider my work as precious gifts to your loved ones.

   I create many knitwork like shawls, scarves, neckwarmers, gloves or your requested models. Also I create various baby clothing.

   Hope you enjoy, love and feel the energy I put in my work.
