Mirror, Mirror on the Wall....

When you are at a festival, retail market or private trunk show selling your handmade/handcrafted jewelry, do NOT forget to have mirrors handy.

Women will want to try on the jewelry and see how they look in it....this is an emotional process. When they look in the mirror, they are imagining what they would wear it with......

Watch their body language closely and you will discern who is taken with a piece and who has a ho hum feeling about a design.

Jewelry / eye-candy / bling/ baubles (whatever you call them) are meant to be touched and tried on. Encourage your customers to try on the jewelry and look in the mirror.

Before you know it, you will be asking if they would like to keep it on or gift wrap it...;)

For Those Who Can't Resist a Sale....

For those customers that have a black belt in shopping,an item on sale is worth buying!Promote your sale (s) whether you are involved in e-commerce, flea markets or retail.

I have just started a new blog just for sales, Steal My Baubles. The blog has a new deal everyday and is only good for 24 hours. I will market this site plus include it in my monthly newsletter-viral marketing (yes, that is a broken record) in the background.

I will keep y'all updated as I test on my blog, Steal My Baubles. Are you do something similiar? Feel free to post your comments so we can all learn something without having to reinvent that gosh darn wheel!
