For all of those who missed us today...

Im here to catch ya up.
I feel like we got the ball rolling in the right direction with todays meet at Sweet Life. :) We have a great little group being formed!
Our main topic of conversation was flyers! We wanna get them up and around town! We decided to use one of the downloads directly from etsy and add our shop names to the other side. :) I decided to work on them today because now you can all view them in plenty of time before I give them to Emily to print this next saturday. Make sure your name is presented as you want it to be and triple check my spelling. I double checked it but you never know ;)





I am also going to work on getting us a blog counter, just another thing that we wanted added to the blog.

Wren had a good idea, she mentioned everyone's shop announcement having something about being involved in the etsy street team. Possibly a link to the blog, or the admin street team page as soon as they set one up for us. Word it however you want (after all it is your shop) but it would be nice to have that on all of our pages to help all of us promote each other!

I am going to be adding everyones personal blog links to the side of our street team blog so we can all link to each other! Please send me your blog page if you have one and Ill be happy to add it.

We talked about buttons being made and flyers(like the ones above) made on nice cardstock to send with items we sell! Next meet Emily should have those printed up for us and also some news on the buttons. :D

This brings me to our next meet time/Date/Place. Pam informed us that it is difficult for a lot of you to meet on Sundays so, we are going to try Thursday evening. Thats

Thursday March 8th @ 6:30pm at World Cafe

We decided on World cafe because it will have internet access for all of us with wireless laptops and we will be able to view etsy anytime we want :D Just to let everyone know the meets dont have an official "end" time. Come and go as you please even if you only have a couple of minutes to drop by and introduce yourself. But if you can, stay and chat with all of us because we can learn so much from each other as we found out today. Look forward to seeing you all on Thursday. Hope you like the flyers ;)

New Addition

So I am discovering new things about this blog spot and want to make it very easy to get to each others etsy pages and also make it more visual to know whos in the street team. So as you can see I have started a little list on the bottom of the page with our avatars and links to our etsy pages. Please send me the URL of your avatar so I can include it on the page with the rest of us!
Also added Pam and Emily as authors of the blog so you'll see posts from them as well as me!
