[amayausers] Re: Advice on settings for Hooptech system

LOL....well, I think the name change may help me charge a fair price!  My 
real reason for the change is that I'm also creating jewelry (relates to custom 
accessories) and make some small quilts (home decor).  I needed a trade name 
that would cover whatever I'm able to sell.
How are you doing?   I am doing better selling my jewelry this year than my 
embroidery.  A few decent size orders for some of my husband's military 
colleagues but everything else is small volume.  I've invested in a Yellow Page 
ad 
which will be in print in November.  I also tried placing an ad in a newspaper 
supplement.  And now I'm researching some craft shows....not to do on site 
embroidery....but to take some items pre-embroidered and then also provide an 
order form for those who want something special (the problem with that, 
however, 
is that I don't have a credit card service yet).   My hubby took a web design 
course and I now have a website:  www.patriciasegar.com.  It's functional but 
needs some updates (I'm going to add another catelog link)....weather 
permitting, hubby will do them this coming weekend.  My reason for the website 
was to 
make it easier for people to peruse a catelog. I still prefer to consult and 
then give them a price once I have an idea about their order size.  
Are you keeping busy with embroidery or did you add on something else?  I 
don't know whether it is just me but I feel like marketing is the hardest thing 
to do.  Hats off to all those entrepreneurs who figure out how to grow their 
businesses!

Pati
