Pushing for Promotion
I don't know about you but I hate promotion. I hate opening myself up for rejection. But this week I've been brave and have been emailing and posting and pimping. Here's what I've done, let me know in the comments if you can think of other good ways for designers/creators/crafters/artists to promote themselves...

Good for you! In my opinion, only sustained promotion gets results.
Studies have shown that ads that run in national newspapers have to run for WEEKS before they're worth it.
*gets off soap box*
You've been busy! I hate promoting too :(
I found your blog through the etsy forums!
Love your blog and your shop. Everything is so bring and sunny!
I don't really have any other ideas for promotion. I am having a tough time with it too. I'm such an introvert and it is tough for me to get myself out there. I find it so much easier to promote online than in person. I need to get over my fear and hit the street and do it.
Ok, this is the longest post of all time. Sorry!
