Pulpa has just been informed that it will be the featured Zibbeter on Monday, December 26th! How wonderful is that? Pretty darn wonderful!
My shop on Zibbet can be found @
www.zibbet.com/pulpa
I want to thank Zibbet for picking Pulpa out of many other deserving shops!
If you are unfamliar with Zibbet here is a little information!
Zibbet is a fairly new online marketplace for artists, craftspersons, vintage goods, and art supplies. It is similar to Etsy, but also unique in a few ways as well.
Zibbet is a much smaller community than Etsy. So you will find communiction with other shops and many of the "higher ups" is much easier. To be found on Zibbet would seem to be easier as well, although I have yet to make a sale on Zibbet. Keep in mind, I have only had this shop open for a couple of months. So I feel good things are still to come.
Etsy is a much larger marketplace and more well-known to the public. I have made a quite a few sales on Etsy and my numbers are slowly increasing. I have really been pushing the shop in 2011 by adding many more items and options to the customer. This does help! People want options! I am by no means in the thousands, or even hundreds, of sales yet, but I am working on it.
You can get lost in the crowd persay on Etsy. If you do a search for paper products you may get 500,000 items flying back at you. So you have to help promote yourself and be competative.
This really goes for either marketplace, or any marketplace for that matter.
Thank you again Zibbet for helping Pulpa reach out and share its wares! I look forward to working together and creating a wonderful environment for those who love the unique and the handmade!
Peace, Love, and Handmade Paper
