Hi there,
Im thinking of giving this ago in response to the turn £100 into 10k thread hehe, Ive been thinking about it for a while anyway, There are no other sellers in a good 30 mile radius of me and i dont actually think there are any in my county leaving me what could potentially be a very good market.
I just wanted to chat to some other sellers and see how they get on before i go for it, £100 is still alot for us to lose if its not going to make it back

I am a seller for Barefoot online only. This means I advertise online, give my link to friends and family and also offer a discount to schools, nurseries, etc, if they order through my website.
I have'nt really pushed the advertising yet, but I still make a bit every month - here is the imprtant bit - to do it this way, you don't have to invest in the starter pack unless you want to sell in person to schools, at fairs or home parties.
I have recently ordered a massive amount of books from the sale to sell direct too.
Any questions, pm me.1373/100000 -
Thanks truly,
With the website you get do you have to purchase your own domain or do they provide a .co.uk one?Had my amazing little girlie 08/12/2007 - 11 days late! 9lbs 3oz

You do not have to purchase your own domain, you get a .com with your id code added. Mine is in my profile, if you want a look.1373/100000

Hmm, I think i may buy my own domain and point it to the member website rather than having the member ID as the website address i think some other girls have done that too... I will ring and ask!Had my amazing little girlie 08/12/2007 - 11 days late! 9lbs 3oz

I don't do barefoot anymore but when I did I bought my own domain name and pointed it at the one provided by barefoot books. It was really easy and much shorter!laurenjs88 wrote: »Hmm, I think i may buy my own domain and point it to the member website rather than having the member ID as the website address i think some other girls have done that too...

I bought it from 1 and 1 and used their settings to point it at my barefoot one. Didn't pay for hosting it just the annual fee for the domain name.

At that time there were barefoot forums where people helped with stuff like this and I think there is a yahoo group as well“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”
