Promote Your Etsy Shop – Postcard Giveaway

By Kim Layton 41 Comments

Have you started to prepare for your holiday sales yet? Well, it’s time to get moving! Here are some tips to help get you on the right track this year, and have you ready in time for the holiday rush.

  1. Start adding your holiday items to your shop for those early shoppers. I sold some holiday items last week!
  2. Think about your holiday packaging. A little extra effort on your part could help you make the sale.
  3. Stock up on your popular items. It will make it so much easier for you when the orders start rolling in, and everyone loves to get their orders quickly.
  4. It’s not just Christmas shoppers…promote Fall items with promotions. As soon as the first chill is in air, they will need a scarf, hat, or something warm and cozy.
  5. Promote, promote, promote!!! Contact past customers, blog about your new items, advertise, and maybe even send out postcards!

Would you like to win 200  custom postcards from UPrinting.com? Two lucky Everything Etsy readers will win!  Visit UPrinting.com for custom greeting cards and postcards. 

 

If you don’t have an Etsy shop, you could use them for holiday greeting cards, thank you notes, announcements, or invitations. I’m sure you could come up something great to do with these postcards.

  • 200 full custom color postcards – front and back!
  • Choose from 3 different sizes
  • Gloss or matte finish

Just leave a comment to be entered. If you are an Everything Etsy subscriber, leave another comment. If you would like to spead the word to your friends by blog post, Twitter, Facebook, whatever…leave a third comment. You have up to three chances to win!

The winners will be picked on August 29th. You will need to pay the shipping. This giveaway is for the United States.

This should help you bring in some extra holiday sales!

Check back tomorrow for a back-to-school giveaway you won’t want to miss! 

Good luck!

***This Giveaway is closed.  Thanks for playing along!  The winners have been contacted and I’ll list their information here soon.

    I subscribe. Don’t have a shop since I really don’t have anything that I do enough. Birthday banners, but AFTER the babies are born. And thread bracelets. But I love seeing all the crafty people here, including my friends. It’s fun to see what I’m going to buy next (well, after I get a job that is).
