    Thanks! I can’t WAIT to get all the info I’ve learned together for use specifically by our industry. Been taking snapshots of http://pinterest.com/howtoconsign/ as it grows, to illustrate my points.

    Wish there were more hours in the day (hey, wait, I’m supposed to be RETIRED 😉 )… spent yesterday afternoon visiting a nearby shop and talking with them about how to keep growing. I’m also knee-deep in Blogging for Resalers, my NARTS workshop topic and updating Words that Sell and and and……golly gee I love this industry!

    Excellent idea! I can’t wait to check out your boards. We’re using Pinterest at Little Green Beans to show our consignors what items we are seeking plus items of interest for moms with young children, our target audience (e.g., healthy snack tips, local free entertainment). http://pinterest.com/lilgreenbeans/
