New Blog Feature - EVST Daily Dose

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up that I spoke with Bethany last night and offered to help out with the EVST Blog and I thought I would do a daily post featuring one item newly listed from an EVST member. Here's a link to the first post:

http://etsyvintage.blogspot.com/2008/04/evst-daily-dose-42108.html

What my plan is, is to feature one item everyday that was listed that day. Like today's scarf from vintagerouge was listed today. Kind of gives it a little spin of being fresh and new to potential readers (i.e. shoppers!).

I also wanted to let you know how I'm searching for the items - the easiest way to do so is to do a search for our tag etsyvintageteam and pick from the the ones which were listed that day. So sellers, remember to use that tag on your new listings! Since I'm only picking items from that day (or perhaps the night before if I need to) there's no worry about going in and changing your existing item descriptions just remember to use the tag in your new listings!

I hope it helps get traffic to the blog, attention to the EVST and sales for those featured! If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!

Justine

I think it makes sense to use items that are being tagged with our team tag.
Don't forget, that you can use our Etsy shop to search for sellers. It has all the team members listed in our 'favorite sellers' list.

I've also been contacting those who I'm featuring just because anyone I know would want to know if they were featured on a blog.; ▶ Reply to This

Thank you and Bethany for the blog!; ▶ Reply to This
