"tweet later" goes to "social oomph." Are those the same thing? :?:
note: I see, it says, "We used to be Tweet Later" Duh! :roll:
Have to get ready for work, but I set up one scheduled tweet. Do I want to say the same thing every day? :oops:

Great lessons on twitter.
Hi Everybody, I am still quite sick and am disappointed I am not participating right now. I will come back stronger though - right?
Keep on going. There is power in momentum!!

I forgot I had an account with them! This harkens back to my fear of Twitter. I scheduled 4 tweets a day from now through Saturday. I created and saved 3 Tweets to rotate through.
I looked at HootSuite, but I think TweetDeck integrates my Facebook and MySpace better.
I'm trying to follow 20 new people a day, but I think it's working out to more like 8 or 10. I'll work on increasing that. My question is: When will I get to sew?
:wink:

Okay, I think I got it. I go to the profile page of some Twitters with large Following numbers. I go through their list and follow some like-minded people. A quick way to add 20+ new people a day, got it! Just listed: https://icraftgifts.com/handmade/19107/fresh-as-a-daisy-handbag.phpI had like 25 views in 3 minutes! I didn't have that many after 2 months on Artfire and Etsy. |

1) add 20-100 people I keep subtracting people, not adding! I'll look for a list of a popular person I like! Thanks for the suggestion, Terri! 2) list new product and update 1 I don't have enough books to list a new product, but I decided to list one of my treasure necklaces: #page has been deleted# I also updated my Snake Dance Necklace over at Etsy, and moved the haiku lower in the description. I like how the haiku looked, first thing, but it doesn't take good advantage of SEO (replacement engine opt.) 3)download Tweetlater, called now SocialOomph set up 3 auto tweets 1- "storybeader is now sewing books" and link to icraft 2- "storybeader recognizes National Native American month, with an exclusive southwestern jewelry section in Etsy" and link to Etsy 3- "great view of California Coast by photographer Mark Meader" http://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=5211736336491477962&postID=7791753343846351663question: can you take one of your scheduled tweets over at Social Oomph and RT it, from the Tweets/List all tweets page? What is the "recur" column? 4) commercial The storybeader is now sewing paper! Get your exclusive journal or sketchbook, covered in beautiful Japanese Washi paper, and hand sewn with waxed Irish linen thread. A haiku poem is written specifically for each book, and is affixed to the front verso of every volume. NEW! Original, "any week" planners! Your pick of lined or unlined paper on the left side; on the right, the "any week" calendar block. Whew! Did you get all that :shock: {:-Deb |

You are hysterical... Time to Sew??? Surely you can manage on 4 hours of sleep a night???  I have this problem too as I am sure everyone does. Bootcamp is "extreme marketing" but when Bootcamp is over you can bring more balance back to your day and get back to creating... The fundamental thing about being a successful online seller is to have enough appealing product to draw a crowd to your storeCheers Christine ......... My question is: When will I get to sew?

Hi Storeybeader, I tweeked your advert a bit. See if there is any fit for you there. Cheers Christine 1)
For the discerning gift giver Storybeader has launched a new line of one-of-a-kind journals or sketchbooks. Covered in exquisite Japanese Washi paper, hand sewn with waxed Irish linen thread, each book is forwarded with a haiku poem written specially for you. It is affixed to the front verso of every volume and can be a message to be shared or a thought for private pondering. Your book can be custom designed as "any week" planners with lined or unlined pages as you wish.
Whew! Did you get all that :shock: {:-Deb[/quote |

The fundamental thing about being a successful online seller is to have enough appealing product to draw a crowd to your store I think this is a fundamental retail rule, not just online! I added two products: https://icraftgifts.com/handmade/19115/african-american-indian-angel-paper-die-cut.php#page has been deleted# I had fun with my cutter on the weekend! I've come up with 4 total hairstyles for my girls. Pictured here is only one! More to come over the season. |

This is wonderful! And nope, no clothing for men or children - they should all run around naked! JK, believe it or not, sewing for them requires different techniques and rather than spread myself thin, I prefer to design for women. I might tweak that last sentence a bit, but you could make money off of ad copy, if you don't already. Oooooo! Tweek mine!

Super I am glad that you can make it work. Ha ha... naked men and children... yes I know... . sewing for humans takes more patience than I can muster anymore! You have very special talents that I am sure are appreciated by your customers. Cheers Christine |

By the time I got done last night posting a new listing, it was...eek 1:30am! But I promised myself I'd post for every assignment, so here it is: I signed up for Hootsuite, and now just have to sit down with it and figure out what it's going to do for me. Put my ad on my profile page... it's been a bit bare the past week or two. Much better now, thanks Christine. For my new listing, I used Picnik to try to lighten up the photos... not sure it did the trick though... I wonder if Picassa is any better? I know I know I REALLY need to get some baby hands in my photos. My camera is pretty old, and takes a couple seconds from the time I press the button to the time it's done taking the shot. That's why the wiggles get in the way. A new camera is out of the question, but I am going to really try to get a baby photo shoot in this weekend. |

Lol... I hadn't thought about a baby being so quick. Mine are grown and gone so I have forgotten all these things. Cute!
Yay a new listing... they are the name of the game.
Good for you learning these new programs.
I'm to your store to see how your photos look.
Cheers
Christine

ok...here are my commercials...I have to admit I am a bit nervous to have this critiqued. Incase you haven't guessed..I am very anti-mall and corporate fashion. I really try and offer women of ages something fun to help enhance their look...I think Weezi is ageless...this has been a bit of a battle. I try hard to get women understand that their"individuality is ageless and so is colour...anyhow...let me now what you think. Here we go.... This is for my retro inspired dresses: Looking for something different to spruce up your look? Weezi has retro inspired clothing for grown up gals that like to stand apart from the crowd. We believe that women should look like women. Show off your curves! Don't hide behind shapeless or dull clothing. Stand out from the crowd and proudly show the world who really are while wearing a Weezi dress. Be brave. Be proud. Be yourself. Ok...for my one of kind bags:...same sort of idea. Looking for something different to spruce up your look? Weezi has one of kind handbags for grown up gals that like to stand apart from the crowd. We believe that women of all ages should embrace colour and the impact it has. Show off who you are! Don't hide behind some dull or boring handbag. Stand out from the crowd and proudly show the world what a true individual you really are with a one of kind Weezi bag. Be brave. Be proud. Be yourself. *** thanx! Lisa www.weezi.com |
