Hand-made/hand-drawn; get the word out!

I’ve been making and selling cards since 2014. I’ve tried Etsy, and sadly, I sold not one card. I get it – it’s a very common medium among crafters and vintage sellers. I’ve moved on to Instagram but it’s really just a place to show off my work. Sure, I’ll get the occasional custom order from there, but they’re mainly from friends and family, which has been my best form of advertising. Word of mouth has been very good to me, and to have Instagram/Facebook to use as my portfolio has been a blessing. I will eventually move into the world of my own website, but some things have to fall into place first. Rather, I need to make things happen much more quickly in that direction. So yes, this is my own website and I plan (and hope) to sell my cards from here. But it is a work in progress. Until then, Instagram and Facebook and word-of-mouth it is.
