Thank you :) I'm at 90 now...lol. I think sales will go up quite a bit august 1st. I've been creating new products all week and giving sneak peeks on fb page and everyone knows the new stuff will be there aug 1st and if they sign up for mailing list before then they'll have a coupon code :) building the anticipation for products really seems to work so far

Hi guys!!!

Just needed to share some joy (it's 11pm here and everybody's asleep so I'm talking to myself! )
I just opened my 2nd Etsy shop, I'm so happy! My goal was to open the shop next weekend, so I'm really happy to have reached my goal before the deadline I had set for myself! Especially since last weekend, I had to redo many of my files from scratch since I had lost some documents a few days before!

I rolled up my sleeves & here I am!
Let's hope it's gonna be successful! :)

Wow Jackie that's fantastic - it usually takes much longer, is this your first shop?

I've had a great week, my first commision for a plus size lady and also a sample call in for a music video!

[Former_Member]

Hi Tilly! Thank you! This is my first shop. My daughter (the captain of this team), invited me to join Etsy as a buyer and convinced me to open a shop recently. So I figured I would give it a try.

Also, congratulations to you as well! A music video is a huge opportunity!!!

Well done Jacque! Let us know how it goes for you!

I am very pleased to say that this Saturday a music video is being shot with 10-15 dancers wearing only Nearer The Moon items. I've just confirmed the sample drop off with the stylist so I can say its happening for sure now!

Also today I have made more through Nearer The Moon than my wages at my day job (not just via Etsy though), so this whole QYDJ is looking more likely by the day!
