1} Photos :
When taking photo's always check your background, settings & lighting as these will make all the difference if your using a smart phone use the photo enhancer to made a sharper picture.
2} Marketing :
Describe your item with trigger words, i.e. baby, toddler, handmade. And never underprice your items cheap isn't always best.
Where to sell? online, craft fairs and farmers markets are some of the best places and you also met lots of new friends and return customers.
3} Have confidence :
Be confident must people cant do the work you've done, choosing the pattern and yarns used and knitting a beautiful item, take pride in your work .
4} Deposit :
ALWAYS take a deposit that covers the materials you will use, or take the full amount if that's what you would prefer, as we all know people change their minds and wont pay or disappear from all contact when it comes to paying.
5} Packaging :
Choose your packaging, I personally use tissue paper, tied with ribbon and placed in a plastic envelope with a business card, and a thank you note. If someone buys something a little more expensive I offend add a little extra gift, like a bib or a pair of cotton mitts.
6} Postage :
After you've spent hours lovingly knitting your item the last thing you want is the parcel to get lost in the post, so I always send mine recorded delivery.
7} Communication :
Always keep your customer updated with timings, progress, and any delays.
8} Professional :
When you sell, be professional as if its a business, use order forms, invoices, keeping a copy for your records and adding care instructions, and a thank you note or thank you card will set you apart from other sellers.
So sell your knitwear and take pride in your work
