Hi All! I'm not sure if I am writing in the correct thread but I just wanted to come by and say that its great to be here! I'm in NY, pretty close to Canada I run http://indiesmiles.com with Sue and we hope that your participation in our Coupon Directory will add to your bootcamp experience. At this time, we have seven submissions from bootcampers. We hope that at least 13 more bootcampers join in. Don't forget that two lucky submissions will be chosen for an upgrade: one will be our featured store and another will receive a full write up under our program we call showboat smiles. So don't miss out! Once Christine feels that she's gotten enough subscribers to indiesmiles, we will run the discount campaign. Make bootcamp work for you! El p.s. Just a friendly reminder that when our website actually asks you to login to paypal, ignore that. We just need your info. from the first form. After all this is free!

All done for today...great feeling.
I added my iCraftGifts.com shop to my Google Analytics account and will just wait for it to go live.
I tried the itools site...have to look around some more.
Left comments on all the blogs, signed up at IndieSmiles with a coupon, but didn't know to ignore the Paypal, so I paid the $1USD. Oh well.
Keep going my iCraft friends...we're learning so much!

I am able to do Indie Smiles, but I swear, for the life of me I don't get it. I have read all the posts with instructions...lol!!
OK, so I just signed up but saw no place to tell Indie Smiles what discount I can offer.
I did not log into PayPal so did not pay.
So...........icraft sellers, so someone buys something at a discount then what? Do I make instructions somewhere to not complete the sale then I will send an invoice from PayPal?
Sorry to be so dense!!! Help?

hi gallerialinda, If you can email me your discount I can place it in the directory. el@tantalizingstitches.comWhat was supposed to happen is that you include this information in the "description" part. Don't worry though because I can edit and include it in. When someone redeems a discount you can do one of two things. If the customer already paid by paypal, you can refund the portion of the discount by going into the "details" of the paypal payment. Scroll to the bottom and click "refund". If the customer has not yet paid, you can send them a paypal invoice. Log in to paypal and click on "request money". Then, click on "create an invoice". That should work! happy sales! El I am able to do Indie Smiles, but I swear, for the life of me I don't get it. I have read all the posts with instructions...lol!!

Oh thank you!!! I will email the discount info now.
This really isn't hard...really!
How long does this last - did I read 14 days? When does it start? Do I need to put that in the description?

I'm going to get some messages out and I am sure we can easily russtle up 20 sellers. I know everyone has been working so hard they just haven't had time to get it together or get their ad done.

Okay, today is a first for me. I completed all of todays assignments today! :lol:

And I even chatted up icraft again on my jewelry forum!

I signed up on indiesmiles - El, not sure if it worked or not. Are we supposed to hear back?
I also posted comments on each link that i could. I skipped a couple because i wasn't a member and its a lot to keep track of.
I also signed up for the analytics.. and awaiting instructions for that =)
WHOOSH.. off to micheal's to replace my heat gun! ta-ta for now!

Here I go again....confused about Indie Smiles. In my defense, I just got back from a trip and am running in circles...lol!
OK WHEN does the indie smiles discount coupon go live?
I need to reduce the pricing in the shop - can anyone tell me when? Am I late? Or has it not been determined?
THANKS for your patience!!!

Done for the day!
(Waves at El!) Sorry, I'm not doing the coupon. My items are already very low prices, a coupon wouldn't really be a great offer.
(On the plus side, I have brainstormed something for the pending odd sock event!)

Hi EncorcelledMinds no problem about that! i was taking a look at someone's listings (i think on etsy) and she included that if you live near a certain store (maybe she has a brick and mortar store but I don't think so - maybe just a deal with that store) you can pick it up and she'll refund the shipping costs. Since this site tailors to Canada (i know its big but still), it might be an idea to include in your listings - if you are willing to do it. anyways i just wanted to update you all. we have ten sign ups! just ten more Christine, tell me when you finalize the coupon start date. happy sales! El Done for the day!
