Your name: Tracy
Shop name: Cinnamon Jewellery
Nominated by: Hazel @ Flame Haired Jewellery , Colleen @ Midnight Star Designs and Nana @ Nanfan
Describe the items you make in 3 words: Colourful, rustic, different
How long have you been selling on Folksy: Nearly three years
What’s your top tip for someone selling on Folksy: Be prepared to work at it! Put as much effort into how your shop looks as you do in making your items. Read up on the DSR's and fill in your policies. Write a profile – buyers like to know a bit about who they're buying from. Acknowledge every sale and post promptly. A well presented shop reassures buyers you care. Work on your photos - experiment with backgrounds, read up on how to use your camera to get the best results. List regularly and write good descriptions - what your item is made of, measurements, etc. I could go on but I'll stop there!

What’s your favourite shop to buy supplies from: I have a few favourite online shops that I buy my items from. For scrapbooking materials I love The Craft Emporium because they always have beautiful papers from my favourite designers. And for basic craft items I use Cardcraft because their prices are good and p&p is free.

What advertising do you do that brings the most visitors to your shop: My best promotional tool at the moment is Facebook. I have made a real effort lately to try and spend more time there and it has paid off, with most of my viewings/sales coming via my page. I also use an advertising site https://www.projectwonderful.com/, which I use to place an advert on various blogs and other relevant sites mainly at weekends. It is very quick and easy to use and fairly cheap too.
