Firstly, I would be the first to admit that I am a novice at this sort of marketing and so when I reached 500 followers on Twitter I was pretty chuffed with myself :-) and I decided to offer a free pair of earrings with any necklace ordered. This worked out fairly well and a few people took up the offer, but I thought that I would have been flooded with eager persons wanting to take advantage of a free pair of earrings.
I then attended a meeting of the north Devon branch of Women Do Business which is usually held in South Molton - a great wee village with the fabulous Griffin's Yard wholefood shop and cafe in which to indulge myself at lunch time after all the hard work of the morning...
The speaker that day was Tina Sibley - who was really inspiring and I came away determined to conquer Social Media at any cost! So I decided to push my profile on both Twitter and Facebook AND join Google+ which I was assured was the next BIG THING! I've just spent 2 hours trying to make a profile and wondering how exactly all this time trying to update my SocMed presence across ALL the ones available is going to help. It's like trying to juggle lots of oranges in the air at once!
Anyway, I ended up deserting that and making up some orders - and I really liked the colour combo in this necklace and bracelet set ordered by Every Cloud Boutique in Dorchester
The next goal is to reach 200 followers on my Facebook Page and then it will be a giveaway of a £15 voucher towards any item from my website www.sandymitchell.co.uk
