Iguanadon Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) A busy week for Iggy. I worked hard last week cutting a ton of extra dogs for a dog focused event this past Saturday. The good news is I had my best day of sales ever. The bad news, it was only about half of what I had hoped for. We got slammed by a hurricane a week ago and I think a lot of folks are still recovering from it and attendance at the event was less than usual. But that's OK, like I said, it was a new record for me selling 45 pieces. Last night I started goofing around and looking into ecommerce websites and before I knew it, I had one setup... Just in time for the holiday shopping season. Now folks have a way to actually buy and order from me rather than just emailing me. The site is very basic and needs some work but it's a decent start I think. Let me know your thoughts. #1 on my list of things to do is create drop down boxes within each of the puzzle categories so you can actually order a specific breed or animal rather than having to type it in the NOTES field in the cart. www.WoodcraftByScott.com Iggy Edited October 22, 2016 by Iguanadon lawson56, Fab4 and Phantom Scroller 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye10 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Scott we always want to sell more but you did set a new record so you should focus on that. I looked at your website and it looks great. Your table was set up very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Monk Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Congrats Scott! Your web site is looking good. I sell a few things through my Facebook page but shipping puts the price up a little high for most people.dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iguanadon Posted October 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Well, that was simple. Drop down boxes within the various categories of puzzles is now done. If anyone else is looking into an ecommerce website, I'm using Shopify and I'm very pleased with them so far. Easy setup and very helpful support.

meflick Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Glad you had a record day despite Matthew impinging on the week. Hopefully the area can recover from his wrath sooner then later. My prayers for all affected by the storm. I checked out your new ecommerce site. Its looking good and easy to navigate. Now you will need to make sure you add the info. to your cards and such so people who get your card from a purchase or visit know where to go and get more. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks and yes, already planning on ordering new cards with the website on it. For now, my Facebook page has a big SHOP NOW button on it that takes them directly to the new site. Honestly, I'm not expecting much but I wanted to at least have the ability for folks to make purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
