We started as a brick and mortar store selling greeting cards and gifts. Many Friday and Saturday nights my husband joined me and we would just watch people walk by hand in hand not even giving our store a second glance. I thought that is typical and how my husband and I would be if we were out strolling. So, we are baby boomers and about to retire, move and downsize. We have a box of records by the door. I think we should really try to make one of those bowls my daughter had given my son for a gift.......well by Christmas we were busy filling orders for clocks, bookends, and scrapbooks too. So, we were often asked if we had a web site. Etsy was the answer in that it is very visual and gives you a good feeling of what you are buying. We attended one of the Etsy Success Symposiums and when we can we try to fill our shop. I still get so excited when we get an order from Etsy and now with an iphone I have to hold back my excitement.......it's a little embarrassing when you are shopping at the food store and you cannot hold back the excitement of an order!
