Boy has it been a long time since I update this:( Where has the time gone?
As a retailer, I am heading into the busy season. This is time folks start shopping for holiday gifts and think about having home jewelry parties. Did I mention that this is a GREAT time for retailers and I LOVE it?
I have done a fair amount of art shows now and I must say that I much prefer doing home parties. Why you ask, well for one there is not the time commitment you have with a show, which can be 3-4 days. There is also the time you spend setting up. Outdoor shows are especially difficult, especially if you are alone. Those easy up tents are NOT easy to put up. Not sure who named them but it was not a woman. Lastly, when people attend an art show, they are not necessarily going to purchase jewelry or a painting or a sculpture. You get the picture - I do not have a captured audience like I do at a home party.
A home party is a more intimate setting too, you can interact with the customers to understand what they like and dislike. That being said, I have to promote my jewelry parties:)
I have attached a link to my site which outlines what is in it for the host(ess). http://www.jewelrybyfrancine.com/partyfr.html
My prices are very reasonable as I do not have to pay a middleman to sell my jewelry, and all of my jewelry is handmade by me in the good ole' US of A! Ok enough of promoting myself.
Now another what's in it for you: Currently I am offering free shipping on all purchases through October 1, 2010. This is a savings of almost $6.00. Stay tuned, however, for a great sale on all of the earrings. If you are an earring person, you cannot miss this one. I will post on the landing page as well as on my FB page so stay tuned!!
Until next time...
