Get Involved in a Promotional Giveaway with another Business

Even though I have my own e-c0mmerce site, I gain additional exposure by showcasing my jewelry in other venues like Etsy, Funky Finds Shops, Smashing Darling and Shopaholics TV, etc...

The wonderful thing about being involved in these other e-commerce ventures is that there is a "powerful pull" to these sites and I have an increased chance of having my jewelry seen. Does it really matter if customers see my jewelry at Designing-Diva or Funky Finds Shops? Heck no because I brand myself the same! If nothing else, it establishes credibility that I'm all over the web selling my handcrafted jewelry.

What I love about being involved in other e-commerce ventures is the opportunity to promote my jewelry in ways I couldn't on my current marketing budget.

And here is a perfect example....Right now, Smashing Darling and She Finds have collaborated on a Freebie Friday Giveaway.

Just what is being given away (drum roll please)....a $500 shopping gift certificate to Smashing Darling!

Head on over to the Freebie Friday Giveaway and make a comment on what you would spend your $500 shopping spree on at Smashing Darling and you are entered for a chance to win!

Smashing Darling stocks a seemingly endless collection of jewelry, clothes, and all kinds of accessories from independent designers (like me!) you definitely won't see in the mall. There is quite literally something (actually, a whole lot of things) for everyone.

As you can imagine, the web traffic to Smashing Darling (and of course my jewelry boutique items) has sky rocketed.....that is why getting involved in a promotion with other business's is a smart marketing move!

To your handcrafted jewelry marketing success,
