Hello! my solo-preneurs.

How is it going?

Today I come to you, the bearer of good news.

I know it can all be overwhelming trying to set up an online shop and creating your products and all the behind-the-scenes of running your own business and still figure out how to get customers to your shop.

If you are like me a glorified novice at the inter-workings of the web then I hope you find this bit of information useful. Yes!

So, I discovered that one way to promote your shop is to tell all who would listen or read, by that I mean this. Create a blog.

I know, I know you don't have the time or money to invest in a blog on your tight budget, and what in the world would I have to write about? We ask ourselves.

The answer to all those questions is ......DRUM ROLL

Ready?

Write about what you do. 

We want to know how you do what you do so well and that is crafting and DIYing.
