Hey everyone.
I’ve used the easter weekend to update the website. I’ve decided to re-open my Etsy Shop, and attach the domains http://www.pammesberger.com and http://www.markstshirts.com to the shop and create a pattern website to host my Etsy shop. I thought I reconnect Etsy because some people use it and it gives my designs a wider audience. I still have to figure out how to better sort the products and avoid that the same designs appear twice on the main page like as a mug or as a T-shirt… The reason I’ve stopped using Etsy was that the fees are really high when you sell something and you have to pay on top for showcasing a product on the website and for the website itself. So it’s most likely a minus each month unless you get lots of orders but then the fees are also a lot.
I have also started a Shopify store this easter weekend. All the pride products I have created are already online in Shopify, Shopify and my own website http://www.pridemug.uk will have the same items because as soon as I create them they will go online there because there are no extra fees for adding a new product. I hope that because of the way Shopify works I will get more exposure and have people buy my designs and t-shirts. Also the other designs will come online bit by bit. I have made more than 600 designs and not all of them are yet on a T-Shirt or coffee mug. http://www.pridemug.uk is still showing my own website and blog and you can create your own design there for free and I will print it or select one of my many created designs. The Shopify store is being found at http://www.pridemug.co.uk
