New Shop - Trying Out Yatimi

A week or so ago, I noticed on the daily threads for the Promo Frenzy Team on Etsy that a lot of folks were talking about a new site for Handmade and Vintage goods called "Yatimi".  Seems that within a day, lots of folks were opening shops there, so I thought it was worth investigating.

Flash forward, I now have a shop on Yatimi, which you can find at http://yatimi.com/shop/RomanticThoughts.  The timing was perfect as I was coming up to expiration dates on my first items on Etsy.  Now that some of my items have expired on Etsy, you can only find those items on my shop on Yatimi.  Never fear, Etsy still has a lot of features that are not available on Yatimi - such as the teams - so I can't abandon Etsy!  My Promo Frenzy Team has been very important in helping me to build my business.

Nevertheless, I hope you will stop by my Yatimi Shop, http://yatimi.com/shop/RomanticThoughts, when you have a chance.  I am curious as to which shop people like better (especially shoppers) and why?  Let me know what you think. 

Here is a Treasury that I created in the last couple of weeks to display the work of other artisans on Etsy.  If you see something you like, click on it and it will take you to that item on Etsy.

Also, I want to express my appreciation for those who include my items in their treasuries, so you will also find a treasury by Barnwood4U and JoolsToDroolOver.

Have a great week and BE BLESSED!

  3. I recently opened a shop on Yatimi, too! The jury is still out at this point... I think it has good potential, but I'm still an etsy girl for sure:)

  4. I was one of the ones that jumped on Yatimi to give it a try. I agree with other comments....the jury is still out. I am doing it mostly for search exposure!

  5. I'm watching and waiting. I really need to get my old Artfire shop updated. So much to do... so many options. Overwhelming at times.
