Handmade Seller Magazine
January 04, 2021
The January magazine is live!! We hope that you all experienced a growth in sales this holiday season and feel ready for a completely NEW year with NEW possibilities for your business! ❤️ We’re particularly excited about this new magazine issue because it’s filled with fresh ideas for 2021! Our first featured sellers, Brittany & Heather, blew us away when we found out how they’d launched their business via Facebook Marketplace and have doubled their sales yearly ever since. We also have a super helpful column about how to plan your 2021 from a jewelry designer who created over 30+ best selling craft magazines. Thanks to her experience as an editor, she has a lot of great insights about evaluating your business at the start of the new year and planning out your strategy for the coming months. She even included a download to help with your social media posts! Read on for a preview of this month’s magazine. 🙂
