Share positive thoughts & affirmations with others
Let my hand heal from carpal tunnel surgery so I can create.
When I access Etsy Stats, have no expectations about sales (I’m getting addicted to checking and getting a little disappointed at not seeing a sale).
Increase sales by at least 1 1/2 times.
· Create using existing beads and materials
· Increase the amount of items in these Collections:

ReplyDeleteThose are terrific goals - and I'm sure you'll do great in 2013!
ReplyDeleteUnique Cozy Treasures - Great goals. As for International orders.... I have only done one. But the information that I learned from that one sale really helped me get shipping costs in perspective. The customer used a Freight Forwarder. I mailed the package to the US address of the freight forwarding service. The buyer was responsible for the remaining charging, customs, etc. It took 2 weeks for her to receive the package. Went very smoothly and saved a ton on shipping.
ReplyDeleteOne of the keys to success on Etsy is listing frequently. I'm so glad to see that this is one of your goals. Keep up the good work and good luck in 2013.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your goals... I really need to settle down and do mine.
ReplyDeleteyou have great goals set and hope you continue to take care of that hand of yours.
ReplyDeleteGood luck :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Just curious whats wrong with checking emails ?
Rachel, I check email and stats way too many times during the day. I should be spending my time more productively.
DeleteLofty goals, but I have total confidence in your ability to achieve them. I need to list more frequently, too. I love that you have included community in your goals -- blog interviews and meeting some of the artists you admire!
ReplyDeleteSending healing thoughts and wishing you a full recovery from the carpal tunnel surgery.
You have a great list of goals, and I wish you much success in achieving them! I am so honored to be on your list of artists you admire, Thank you so much! We both live in the same general area, we are going to have to find a time and a place and meet one day soon!
