Where can I find my target market?

Where do you think is the best place to advertise to my target market? Has blog advertising been effective for anyone?

Since you sell patterns, have you tried sewing forums? I think craftster.org has advertising, although I don't know how much it is.

Re: Where can I find my target market?

may i? alot of us etsians basically stay online for our markets.......... I learned i can't do that. Yes i do greeting cards and lots of places do that, but what i have learned is this.......... alot of independently owned places: mail stores, florists, resale shops, etc sell my stuff fine. yeah its says re-sale shop, but they sell NEW items llike greeting cards just fine. TRY, TRY some places on consignment or even cash wholesale and see what happens. I went into a mail store and saw 3 or 4 card racks, several displays of some pillows,toys, vases and now over a year later, WOW this store though its name the mail store, there is MORE created items than anything else.........OH and when i saw the card racks, I said "Oh i looks like you have enough greeting cards", and her response was "wait a minute, i want to see what you have" and withing 3 minutes she wanted a rack full of cards......... SOOO, i did just that, and still didnt know if this was consignment OR cash, until i got back there and she had her check book and said HOW MUCH do i owe you.. so get out there into the marketplace and see what independently owned business's will stock your stuff sweetie. sincerely Nicole
