DESCRIPTION Allowing fellow Etsy shops to highlight their items and shops in a fun, supportive and friendly atmosphere. ABOUT THIS TEAM Founded February 1st 2011 - Our original Team Captain Jill of ForgetMeNotMemories founded this team with these goals in mind: ** connect with other shop owners. ** discover new and exciting items daily. ** increase traffic and exposure to all shops. ** create a sounding and opinion board where shop owners could ask for help and advice. ** create a unique experience of shopping a large variety of items in one place. We continue this team in her memory, honoring her goals, and moving forward. WHO CAN JOIN? Our team is open to shop owners. You may post one item per day per shop in the daily thread but can promote sales, ask for help and guidance, etc . Well okay, sometimes we post more than one item a day afterall, we are proud of what we create. NOT ACCEPTING AT THIS TIME - Gem and Bead Shops or Shops that ONLY have POD items REQUIREMENTS: We do have a few requirements for joining: * Your shop needs to comply with Etsy's Terms of Use at all times (including disclosure of Production Partners, if appropriate, age of vintage items, no reselling etc) * Have a complete and informative ABOUT page for your shop * Have an accurate shop location shown * Have your policies section complete * We ask that you participate in the daily threads as much as possible (once per month at the very least, although we understand how hectic life can get) PLEASE NOTE your application will be declined if you do not meet these initial requirements. We are an incredibly diverse group of international shops and this allows for an enriching experience for all. We chat a lot about life and more specifically we chat about our shops, hints, tips, critiques, etc. You will find a thousand helpful nooks and crannies in the daily threads that may help you improve your shop and your shop traffic. We are about supporting each other, which in turn allows each of us, and all of us, to find success. PLEASE NOTE: Those shops that fail to meet the team requirements may have their membership closed.
