Make a Statement!
When you've waited this long to unveil all those precious works of art you spent the Winter creating, then make a statement with your booth.
We all know what it's like to walk up to an art fair eagerly anticipating all the beautiful things we will see, quickly scanning all the booths to see which one peaks our curiosity the most, therefore, pulling us in first.
When setting up your booth space view it as if you were a customer. Ask yourself if your booth is one that creates the desire and intrigue required to make you walk past all the other booths just to see what is offered inside.
If you pass your own curiosity test, then you have succeeded in connecting with your customers on their most basic level, 'their need to know'.
It's take some work, and a little thinking outside the box, but if you try it you might surprise yourself and be rewarded for all your hard work in the end!

Special Places
With the weather finally turning nice enough that you can open your doors up and enjoy some fresh air, there's nothing better than spending the day creating beautiful little treasures to hang in your window or give to a friend.
Let's face it every creation requires a little money and stained glass is not a cheap hobby. Life really isn't free, you pay for it with dollars, time, patience or what have you. But anytime you can get a deal on something, it makes it just that much better.
So I say if you have a special place in the real world or on the internet that you love to go to because they have such great deals, then promote them! Here's just one way you can do it. Share your "Special Places" here! Post your comment and tell us why this is such a great place for you. Maybe you'll help someone else find what they've been looking for. Who knows!
Let me be the first to start. I have many special places I love to shop, but for stained glass one of my special places is Delphi Glass
Ok, that's one of my special places, What's yours?

Get Yourself Noticed!
In today's hustle and bustle of the internet one of the hardest things to do is get yourself noticed. We create amazing stuff, we blog or talk about it on a community site, then we wait. We wait for everyone else in the world to stumble upon our website or blog so they can be amazed too.
Well sadly, it's no longer that easy to get yourself noticed on the world wide web. Thankfully, we have some great sites out there to help take some of the stress and mystery out of how to bring people to our site. Scoutle is one I have been checking out for some time now. I've seen it on many other sites, but never really knew that much about it. So I went there and checked it out for myself.
Being the skeptic I am, I was pleasantly surprised by what they had and how it all worked. The concept is an easy one. You sign up, create a scout, and your scout goes out and connects with blogs of a similar interests as yours. Through these connections a community of like minded individuals is formed. Thus drawing people to your site that otherwise would never have known you existed.
You know the old saying, "I know someone, who knows someone, who knows someone...". Well simply put, that's basically how Scoutle works. We all know word of mouth is the best advertiser. Well this is just 'word of mouth' the internet way.
So if your in a slump as to how to get more traffic to you site, I suggest trying Scoutle. It's free and very easy to use. You never know, one day you may look back on this as the day your business really took off!
