Your thoughts and ideas are always useful and the feedback I have received so far has been really positive. Thank you!!
A few of you have used this blog to post your comments, please continue to do so ... However, most feedback has been through emails, texts and personal comments. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to keep them all, but here are a few from the last month or so since the launch of the online shop:
"Beautiful original card designs! I look forward to ordering more!" Carmen, 16.09.10
"Stunning makes, I have my eye on the daisy necklace and leaf bangle. So I will be back soon to purchase. I love your style, you have some amazing makes ... I will feature your shop on my blog next month as my featured seller." Lisa x, 03.09.10
Your website looks good, I will have to check it out for Christmas pressies." Mary, 28.09.10"Wonderful product! Great seller! Thank you for the card, it's lovely!" Ruth J, 25.09.10
"A few ideas ... a little printed card attached with the names of the beads/stones used. Nice touch, especially for the more specific pieces you make. Handbown glass beads - I wonder if you have tried that particular craft? A necklace that could be worn in different ways ... a choker, long, twisted, as a wrapped bracelet - another idea when designing!!" Amanda, 03.10.10
"I've had a look at your website and I must say it is FANTASTIC and very PROFESSIONAL!!! I'm very impressed and yes I will be placing an order soon." Rima, 06.10.10
"Add the online shop and blog address to the sticker on the back of your cards." Sharon, 07.10.10
All of your comments, suggestions and ideas for improving the items I make are appreciated and help me to make the service better. If you'd like to have your feedback published, please leave a comment on the blog. I have now added a Reactions feature so that with one click you can leave your reaction to each post. The statistics are encouraging, with the blog receiving an average of 10 views per day. I now have one follower (thank you, Lisa :-x) and, courtesy of the Dart clan, readers of the blog in the US. Amazingly, someone is logging on in Lithuania! To you, much thanks, and I hope you enjoy the products you see.
The online shop zelpher.misi.co.uk is increasing in popularity, thanks to some online advertising and word-of-mouth, which is so invaluable. The most popular item in the shop at the moment is the long teal necklace, which as I type has received 163 views! (Perhaps it'll be snapped up soon!)
Of the crafts, the green gift boxes have received 82 views. These are great for Christmas gifts and can be easily customised in any colour.
And this thank you card has had 78 views. Most of my crafts are made for females, but this card was designed with males in mind. Maybe I need to make more items that are suitable for males (?)
The statistics feature also keeps me on track with other referring sites, blogs, search engines and URLs so I know how "Handmade by Zelpher" is progressing. I'm designing more jewellery and crafts in readiness for the Christmas period, so if there's anything in particular you would like to see, just let me know!
It really is good to hear from you!
