Paper Hugs and Cardstock Kisses Kits to go

 So, my sister Kellie and I are both Stampin' Up! Independent demonstrators. We are looking to build our hobby into a business. She is more into the full on with the business part of it and holding classes and I am more into the kits to go and what nots. (online) We live several states apart so crafting together is almost impossible except online and over the phone (we see each other in person once a year).  The biggest question i think is how to get yourself out there? Well, you start with a blog. How do you get people to read it? subscribe to it? follow it?  Stampin' Up! has a DBWS website that we subscribe to. How do you get people to look for you versus ALL of the other demonstrators that are out there. So, then you start a you tube following.  I have a few followers but are any of them following me because they enjoy Stampin' Up! products? are they future customers/ friends? The hardest part is the consistency. You have to post constantly and consistently in order for people to want to watch you and follow you. and that really is hard to do with full time jobs and transforming from a hobby to a business. Do I have what it takes? the drive? the motivation? well, I have the ideas for sure and that's a great start.  So long story short. Just joking, there was nothing short about this :) We will be coming up with some card kits to go and it will take a bit to iron out the details, but I believe that it won't be too long.  Keep your eyes peeled and reach out if you have any questions.
