Great topic -- I think the thing that holds my marketing back is letting emotion cloud the process. Often times, I'll have poor results on a particular campaign and I'll allow that to dissuade me from continuing to promote.
However, from everything I've learned, it's really a trial and error process and the best way to get results is to be methodical and consistent!

Great topic! I think (esp. as women) we need to do what we are scared to do. We often hesitate to put ourselves or our product out there because we fear rejection. I think what you need to remember is that you have already showed great courage by selling online for the world to see.
The next steps, like promoting and telling everyone you know may seem like we're tooting our own horn. Well, guess what, you ARE! Most artists have a reason to trumpet their product and generally there is someone in the world that will cherish what you have created. Celebrate that, scream it from the rooptops, sing it for all to hear!

My problem is that I keep reading all these wonderfull topics about how to improve your business and get all these great ideas ...but still ..I can't seem to manage to actually put them to use . Sometimes I wish I had a twin sister so that we could do it all together on a daily basis ....
My husband shows no interest and No one else around me lives " on my planet" creatively speaking .

Marketing is my big stumbling block right now. I have plenty of experience in creating, but the marketing side is a mystery to me. I'm trying to spend time learning more about it and improving, but I find it an uphill battle. Like others have said, I find it difficult to promote myself or toot my own horn.
My other difficulty right now, and it is related, is how to reach my target market. Where to promote and advertise - how to spend my advertisement budget effectively. Any suggestions?

Hi Kinichi,
The marketing concepts can best be explained by the following article entitled
"Business With Gorgeous Girl"
You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say, "I am very rich. Marry me!"
That's Direct Marketing.
You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl.
One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says,
"He's very rich. Marry him."
That's Advertising.
You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and get her telephone number.
The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me."
That's Telemarketing.
You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink.
You open the door for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride, and then say,
"By the way, I'm very rich. Will you marry me?"
That's Public Relations.
You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
She walks up to you and says, "You are very rich.."
That's Brand Recognition.
You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say, "I'm rich. Marry me"
She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.
That's Customer Feedback !
:-)..
