Any tips to reaching a bigger audience?

Hiya all! :)

I've just started up my own Digital prints shop on Etsy. It's something i've wanted to do for such a long long long time!! Now, married and aged 23, I finally have the chance to do it! So, after two months of design work, the shop is up and running, only, no sales as yet!

There are some incredible artists on Etsy, and I thought i'd ask, any tips on how to reach people? I have a facebook and twitter especially designated for my company.

I have to say, I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I'm rather shy in person so find it hard to ask people what they think, but i'd love to hear from some people who are already achieving what I hope to achieve. <3

Love your artwork! If I were you, I'd reach out to bloggers. I'm sure there are a bunch devoted to cool geek art or hipster stuff. Sometimes the bloggers welcome something to write about (and they might even have a form where you can submit info about your shop). Another way to approach them is to suggest a giveaway for their readers.

Thank you, and good idea!! I think getting the word out there is the most important thing to do! *runs off to search for blogs!*
