It's Been A Great Few Days...

First let's begin with last week, after 49 weeks of hitting the snooze on my Task Reminder - which kept popping up on my Outlook saying "Hey remember you were going to look into advertising for a Indie Holiday Gift Guide that you been watching for the past three years?" So I did something that took less than 5 minutes to accomplish (which I should add, it probably took longer to hit the snooze button for the last 49 weeks), I sent an email to the Indie site inquiring about their holiday guide. The next day I received a response and two days later, I snagged two spots, one in their Holiday Guide (coming to a website near you in October 2008), the other is a spot in their upcoming Spotlight on Emerging Designers.

Second, in my previous post, I wrote about the Fall promotion sponsored by the organization Count Me In and SheFinds and on Tuesday I received a notification from SheFinds confirming that I was on their list of participating designers for our SheFinds/CMI collaboration this September. This means that during September, SheFinds will feature original accessories created by independent designers that incorporate either the motto “Believe In You”, the Count Me In or Make Mine a Million $ Business® logos, and/or the colors into the design. I have agreed to pledge to donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of each piece to Count Me In. I have until August 15th to submit my design pictures...I better get busy. Hopefully I will remember to post this under the Promotion Forum on Etsy.

Third, on Wednesday I received an email from a possible advertier. We are in the process of emialing each other, so I will let you know how it works out...
