RE: Art and Creativity: Another Month Comes to a Close — Middling Results
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Your Alchemy Stones are beautiful and I can see that you are passionate about the designs. It is so difficult to market oneself and drive traffic to your website. I did it for years and found that since 2020 people don't seem that interested. I sold crystals and stones for years and finally had to close up my shop last month and I had a huge customer base. Times are difficult right now and people are not spending their $$$ to readily.

It is a great challenge, to be sure. I'm sad to hear you had to end your shop...
Perhaps it would feel easier if it were just a universal reality that people don't care about painted stones... but we can take these to an arts & crafts fair or a creative festival and sell upwards of 100 stones for a couple of thousand dollars; so it's clearly not the "product" that's the issue...
This year I am determined to learn how to use Instagram more effectively... a number of artist colleagues swear by it.
