Well I made a little effort this week and worked on my social media sties, as well as starting a promotion featuring an item of the week.
The investment of my time has paid off a little. The views in my shop have really picked up (but no sales), and I also created and sent out my newsletter for August. You can check it out here. I am trying to make this a regular thing for my Etsy shop, and so far I am not doing so bad this year.
In the Monday Motivation post JoJo from Tahoma Beadworks & Photography, Leann from Pasque Flower Ponderings, T from Poppy Place PDX, Reshma from Masala Mango Mantra, also expressed how they were feeling unmotivated and uninspired, so I thought I would share some of the posts I have been reading to help me get out of my funk.
Sometimes it helps to read a little something everyday to stay positive and motivated.
Here are 8 blog posts to check out each day over the next week, for some inspiration to keep moving forward.

ReplyDeleteI am really happy you have been motivated to work on social media (and reaping the rewards), that is a challenge for me.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit I have been more motivated this week and getting a few sales and positive feedback on product has helped :)
I guess a little validation goes a long way :)
I hope I get opportunity to read these suggested blog posts :)
I whizzed quickly thru the last one and liked what I saw so I will go back and read it tomorrow when I am not so sleepy :)
