June 22, 2012 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Yes,  it’s possible. Remember when every consignment, resale, and thrift store wanted to be on MySpace? Life changes. Stuff happens. Be ready.

Would YOUR shop survive the death of Facebook?Interesting article from Flyte. Are YOU getting ready for the next Big Thing?

      Thanks, KIm. Glad that both workshops are done… it’s always pretty exciting to work with an audience without a net, Like Nik Wallenda at Niagara Falls. At least I didn’t have to wear a safety harness! Thanks for your kind words and your support,

      Thanks Carolyn. I hope that the NARTS Conference attendees get a chance to read the article before my workshop tomorrow on how necessary a blog is to their marketing mix. All one’s eggs in one ubercontrolled basket is never a oood idea, and we DO need to use all the outlets we can, if only to build our visibility.
