Picking Flowers over Sports

This is me way way back when.  I wasn't much into sports, and my parents tell me that I picked flowers on the soccer feild too.  playing sports (except with already established friends) has never really been my thing.  I recently found a use for the sports page of the newspaper, (I previously believed it to be completely useless - lol) making paper mache! I've created a few things with that dreaded sports page, the best of which (so far) is a small litte which head decoration for holloween.  lately my time has been being used reminissing on fb, going through my sisters albums (on her page) and looking at all the new pics she's posted from a stash my dad has of old photos. (she scanned them).  it's been bringing back a ton of memories and this is just one of them.... flowers are just so much better than sports!!!! cept maybe swimming!

The Facebook Dilemma

     Yea, I've been on facebook with a profile page for a little over a year. For a while, it was bringing in views for my etsy. I liked having a profile page, especially because I didn't have to spam my friends with what was going on in my shop . They could find that info by a simple click on my profile page under my etsy tab . Recently, facebook decided it was inefficient for business, so they put the word out that they would be deleting them from profiles, and instead to create a fan page . Ok, so I made a fan page, but I doubt that it will be effective due to my lack of a sufficient amount of fans. I'm struggling with the SEO stuff, and don't really know how to talk about my art. When I socialize on facebook, groups, and stuff, the  links will still go to my profile page. I guess it will be about two years before my fan page is built up like my profile page. I have 200 friends, but only 15 fans. My dilemma is; How do I teach myself how to make my fan page posts eff

Stuffed Animal Collection: Becky Responsible for all (toys) Refugees

on the bench from left to right: Sharky, Valentine, Scout, King Sher Con The Great, Tabby, The Mouse, Becky (me), George (my honey), Honey Joe Hey blog readers out there, I need your help. I don't know why but Jenn has gone crazy I think. She said She needs me to figure out who all can fit in her new bus (she bought a school bus last November) and who is going to be sold as a refugee in a child's home. I am just a one foot tall stuffed monkey (toy) how am I supposed to do all that!!! Please help.... Jenn said I have nothing to worry about I won't ever be sold, but I am offended by this notion of selling her stuffed animal collection (toys). Her creativity and imagination has given us voice, and now we're people too. It is a very prejudiced attitude towards some of the ones she's not very close with. All because she wants to downsize and move across the country exploring as she goes. The end goal is of course home to AK, after a year of exploring the continental US.

Marketing for Dummies chapter 1: Optimizing your Marketing Program

Image
So, I've been reading, and rereading, and taking notes, and reading some more from this realy great book " marketing for dummies " (I borrowed my copy from my local library)  Now I'm not dummy, but the reasons why I've been reading - the first chapter even! - over and over, is because it is just that good.  I've litterally been using it like a text book for colledge, using the questions like assignments and going the extra mile on them. Chapter 1 is all about "optimizing your Marketing Program".  Well I didn't really have a marketing program, or a marketing strategy, or know anything about marketing and sales other than you have to do some sort of marketing to make sales.  what an eye opener this one chapter has been!  Now that I've been made aware of this, I've been developing a plan that will be more successful for me.  A few key points made are focusing your time, and your money on marketing techniques that have a major or secondary bu
