What Real People Are Saying "James
Dillehay is an extremely valuable member of our Guerrilla Marketing Network
team. His postings are consistently wise, helpful, and very practical.
He brings a wealth of information and insight to the network and many
of our members are enjoying success because James so willingly shares
his enlightenment." “I appreciate
your help tremendously. You are one of the only people I’ve ever
found who really knows this subject.” "Quite
an expert....Very informative. I wish we could keep you for the next three
days." "Since reading
your books, I have implemented many of the ideas. I am now happy to report
that I have had some surprising success at the "I just can't believe
its a flea market" here in Santa Fe. My hang cards, booth design,
and even my products themselves have been changed by your books. I have
only been there 5 partial days and have sold about 4 times what I sold
in the equivalent time last year. I changed the color of the walls, the
height of the tables, the displays, the hang cards, the pricing and more.
So, IT WORKS!" “I had a sporadic
retail craft business with which I was feeling burnt out. After reading
James Dillehay’s books, my business took on a new life. I changed
my product slightly and the response was remarkable! My first order was
triple what I had planned for, and other orders are pouring in! Because
of the techniques I learned from him, my business is thriving.” “The how-to of how-to
books” “After reading SELL
YOUR CRAFTS ON EBAY, I added one word to a current auction title on eBay
for my glass mosaic tiles and now I am getting DOUBLE the number of hits
over my other postings that do not use that word. THANK YOU for that great
tip!!” “Should be viewed as
the blueprint for success in the crafts industry.” “This book can change
your life! By showing how you can create an additional stream of income
through eBay sales, James Dillehay’s SELLYOUR CRAFTS ON EBAY can
provide you with the time and resources necessary to spend even more time
on the creative aspects of your craft. Many crafts people are tied to
the schedules of local and regional crafts shows. eBay marketing offers
a year around way to approach potential buyers and sell them, not once,
but over and over again.” “James was
a guest speaker on our Guerrilla Marketing conference call and he blew
me away with what he knows about selling on the Internet.” “An astonishing amount
of usable information, crammed into so few pages! James Dillehay has an
amazing talent for getting right to the point, with a minimum of “geekese.”
Of the entire list of computer instructional manuals I have read, this
one would top the list. I would not hesitate to recommend it . . . even
to my mom.” “I survived my very first craft show last weekend, a tiny production in a rural fire hall, where all the vendors knew or were related to all the customers. Out-of-towners on either side of me sold nothing, but I sold 12 times my booth fee, partly because my stuff is good, but partly because I really researched presentation in James Dillehay’s books.” ~ Joann Wheeler “We thoroughly enjoyed
your class on selling crafts. There were many ideas which we can institute.” “As an instructor you
are knowledgeable and customer-oriented. Your ideas and concepts were
stimulating and exciting. One of the best instructors I have the pleasure
of hearing from. Very willing to share ‘trade secrets’ and
answer questions.” “This class gave me
lots of ideas. It was very interactive, so I was able to put this information
in the context of my own business.” “One of the most user-friendly
yet practical books of its kind.” “This new book is so
useful, we can hardly stop using it long enough to review it. If you’re
considering establishing or improving a web presence, invest in this book.” “Everything you need
to know is here, and it’s applicable to any craft.” “A useful compilation
of ‘insider information.’” “Dillehay knows of what
he writes because he’s done it. A very handy and practical book.” “Helpful to anyone contemplating
any crafts business.” “An excellent book.
The appendices guarantee that the book will long remain as a valued resource.” “Includes material other
books lack.” “A very well-conceived,
informative and useful publication.” “The first bit of sanity
I’ve encountered since I began my business. It teaches me everything
I need to know, over and over!” “The author takes readers
by the hand, gently encouraging them to grow into wholesale when they
are ready. His practical guidance makes taking these giant steps less
scary, less threatening.” “Ideas and sound business
advice on every page.” “For artists just starting
out as well as those who are more experienced.” “Worth reading. Covers
basic crafts marketing and business techniques that both beginning and
experienced crafts businesses can use.” “Comprehensive, well
researched publication filled with useful tips for marketing crafts. The
book gives craftspeople sound advice for selling their wares.” “The Basic Guide to
Selling Arts & Crafts is like eating beef stew after the hors d’oeuvres
— more meat, more filling, more down-to-earth . . . . This book
will help you plan your business for maximum profits.” “Whether you’re
a budding entrepreneur or a seasoned business veteran, you’ll benefit
from the helpful marketing and selling tips offered in this handy reference
guide.” “Filled with pricing
tips, ideas for extra income, sources for lists of buyers and more, all
well-organized and indexed for easy retrieval.” “Dillehay knows the
field — I can’t think of a more rewarding retirement pursuit.” “He knows the art side
and the business side of making money with craftwork — an informed
guide indeed.” “All the perplexing
questions are answered and more . . . It’s well worth it.” “Pleasant to read, easy
to understand, chock-full of really useful information. Covers the whole
subject of producing and marketing what you make.” “Comprehensive is the
word for this book which covers everything.” “An invaluable, practical
business and art blend.” “Just what you need;
he’s clearly been there.” “A useful and enlightening
resource.” “Specialized resources
make this a very useful book for weavers and other craft artists who need
solid business information. Recommended for public libraries.” |
