I am after some inspiration, and perhaps a virtual kick, to start selling my wares online. I currently have a facebook selling page, and I am doing pretty well on there, making about £50 a week after all costs considered. I have a wordpress web page thing, but that's really just been somewhere for me to post my designs and I've not really done much with it.
I would really like to set up a real website, sell on Etsy, Folksy, and the like, and hopefully attend some craft fairs next year (my cousin did one recently and took some of my things and sold a fair amount of them!)
But, and theres always a but, apart from being a wimp about the whole thing, I doubt I could sell at the current prices I am with the extra costs of selling properly involved, and then what about the people who use me already, they wouldn't be willing to pay more because I have 'expanded' would they. And what I do isn't particularly unique... I don't think anything is though these days.. and people are buying from me currently... oh bugger! See! I talk myself round in circles all day!
Has anyone gone from selling successfully to friends and family to selling on the web / general public and it working out?
