Silly Kate

March 13, 2018 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Here’s my “unboxing” Facebook Live Video. It’s my first real attempt, and you’ll notice how silly I am. Oh, you didn’t notice where I stumbled, or made errors, or whatever?

That’s what I wanted to show you. That just like in real life, you get caught up in listening and watching, and the everyday goofs we all make, are not the things you particularly see or hear.

Perhaps me, making a silly fool of myself, will inspire YOU to try a live video or two. I hope so!

  Thanks Jackie. The unpacking/unboxing video is an “old” (in Internet years) idea that seems fresh and new all over again, doesn’t it? Who knows what will come back into fashion, huh? LOL

Actually hope you show off in your new tunic in your next video. Thanks for making mass media make sense for us “old timers”. If we don’t keep up we will be lost in the dust.

  Old timers? How about time-tempered folk? Second-Millennium Matrons? It’s not everyone that was old enough to legally raise a glass when the Y2K Disaster didn’t take place!

  You’re too kind. It’s always somewhat disconcerting to see what you look like, hear what you sound like…. I have this Lauren Bacall image in my mind but somehow, that’s not what the world sees …

I thought it was great. It certainly got me thinking about how to adapt this idea to our shop. Thanks for the inspiration!

Oh my gosh! Subscribed because my husband and I are thinking of opening a home decor resale shop, but watched this and Zumbrota is my home town, and Phenomenal woman is a great store here!

  Amy, next time you’re in Zumbrota, stop in and tell Kris that I sent you 🙂 … maybe she’ll give you something (she gave ME chocolates when I was there last summer…) And don’t miss my Publications for the Professional Resaler at http://TGtbT.com/shop.htm to help quick-start your profitability in your new shop!

  Thanks Conny! I’m realizing that short and sweet is a must. We’re all so leery of investing too much time in something!
