Stuffed Animal Collection: 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the jungle.... creatures were stirring.... and scurried about. They poked and prodded the hard frozen ground, pawed at roots, or pecked branches and trunk. All looked about for a morsel or two; 't would bring them all cheer.
'twas a cold winter night and not a cookie was left; Santa if he came would find not a snack, for in the wild jungle a lump of coal would be good for a fire and warmth. And perhaps a roast goose, or a duck would fill all the empty tummies, that otherwise starve.
Oh Santa, for us in the jungle so wide, carve not a doll or a train, but a great roast beast and vegetables for a side. Make for us a Christmas feast, and not a single toy. For us a full tummy would bring greatest joy, and let this pass to all nations blinded by greed, Santa, tell them: there are many starving children to feed. Bring them God's love, and a message to their heart, like the Grinch so long ago, Help them see the meaning of "Christmas" from the dawn of creation, to the worlds twilight end is: "To give the anointed" - our savior and friend. He paid the price for our pride and small grinchy hearts, with him in heaven we can all have parts. If we but carry this cross: Let this day be about Christ and the gift He gave, let us celebrate that, and love all mankind. Then as His disciples we too will rise from the Grave.

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

Image
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. ...

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 p...

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...
