My wishes for this year are assosiated with developing new flowers - my own inspiration. Also I would like to find out some good solution for delivering my big paper flowers. Right now I have had customers with big wishes, but unfortunately I could not help them.

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

Hello all! my first goal is to make the first sale! XD No seriously.. I´m a product designer but mostly I work as a freelance graphic designer. I opened my Etsy shop to show my designs and my goal is, going step by step, finish this year with at least a solid base to think about doing what I love, which is designing and crafting my objects, full time. Wish me luck!

My goal is to enjoy the ride!

I just opened my shop and I look forward to shipping my creations off to different parts of the world. I love the idea that someone may appreciate my wood art pieces enough to want it for themselves...

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

Hi Geraldine!

Be patient, sales will come...

I just favorited you and I noted that your titles are half in French. Someone told me to use all the character space available in the title with different search phrases, ladies shirt, cotton shirt etc. and you don't have to do half French as buyers have our shops language translated automatically.

happy sales!

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

My #1 goal is to increase sales (aren't we all!) to make this a full time job.

My #2 goal is to figure out how to make my item photos more beautiful/appealing without spending an inordinate amount of time on them.

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

My biggest goals for 2016 are to list and create more, increasing sales and make my customers happy. It also wouldn't hurt to participate in a craft fair or two if there's any spare time.

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

My goal is to sell more. I just moved and ended up having to move everything I was planning on selling on line. That was a lot. So no more falling in love with an item and keeping it! Lol That happens way too often.

Re: What are your goals for 2016?

Somehow, someway, I want to build a garage/workshop! My extra bedroom is much too small! I've got stuff all over the house! I want KIVVERS® to continue to grow so that I can be one of those lucky ones who can quit their day job and devote my time doing my pride and joy!
