Mambury - you are a star thank you!!! Phew - you have been working very hard! If I can help in anyway with any marketing ideas or anything please let me know! No Pm yet....

Mabel - I think 25% is a noticeable discount, 30% more so (not a third off but feels like it) also depends what you can bear to give away though to. Hey - can we get you onto the grabbit now board with a 25% discount???

Thanks for putting my site on your Facebook Jo :-)

I think my web person has sorted the 'comments on the blog' issue-if theres anyone about that can test it I'd be very grateful :-)

I seem to be asking for a lot of favours recently so if theres anything I can do in return just ask. If anyone has any wedding related products that i can blog about just shout!

Put you on my fb too, one of my friends has already said she loves your jewellery. Pity she's already married, lol.

Anyone? Please?! Might get it changed tonight .

MABEL - if you can absorb the discount i would offer the 25%, i dont really pay much attention to 10% or depending on your pricing 20% and free postage.

what about offering it off one item to intice people to the site.... change the item every day, few days for a set period of time rather than a flat discount off everything..... that way you are not loosing too much (hopefully).... I would go down the etsy/folsky route too with a few items (not everything) to help get some more traffic....

Deffo go for the grabbit board.... why not.... You might need to check rules on it... PM the boards mod to see if we can put you forward...
But don't forget there will be other similar boards about on other forums that can be used.... HKUD for example??

Nixi - PM'ing you now!!

Muncki - enjoy the sleep, I don;t want to see you on here until at least midday tomorrow after you have had breakfast in bed and watched lots of crap on the tv!!

Is the celebrity bit integral to your blog, i.e. your life whilst following what so-and-so is up to?
