The A Team!

I remember around the end of March seeing a thread on the Folksy forums about a Listings Club which would involve listing a new item every day.  At the time it seemed a bit ambitious to me as I couldn't see where on earth I would find the time!

I watched with interest though as several folksy sellers joined in and seemed to be bringing in impressive number of sales.  First there was the April foolers, then the May Listing Club, June Loons and the July Jesters... they all seemed to be doing really well and something I really noticed was the warm and fuzzy atmosphere created by everyone proting each other and listing together.  (I'm a sucker for fuzziness!)

My own shop was feeling a bit neglected so I decided to join in!  I have listed an item a day so far apart from er.....today!  Oh yeah! So far I've sold 13 items which is almost one per day!

N.B. today is actually Saturday 14th, like Jools Holland, my blog's 'recorded' in advance so this will be published on Monday 16th but I'm writing it on Saturday 14th, how confusing!

It's a personal challenge so there aren't any real rules, you just list something every day if possible and then find the thread in the forums to show everyone and there's a sales tally which is pretty impressive so far! Then you promote, promote, promote!

So I'd like to show you some of my favourite listings from the A Team so far, it's really hard though as there are SO MANY to choose from!
