Focusing on international buyers

So we all know how bad our economy is. Now it's time to start marketing towards international buyers. I always planned on selling internationally but I never made it easy for them to buy, they would have to contact me into order to get a shipping quoate and that pretty much squashed any impulse buyers I may have had. Now I've done a few things, thanks to some of the international sellers on etsy advice, I added metric sizes to my listings (duh that is just something that should've been done long ago), I am currently adding specific shipping rates for different countries so they no longer have to ask me they can just buy if they'd like to. My problem is that there are so many countries and there is an option to adding a price for "everyone else" but they all range in price, so for now I am focusing on a few certain countries, I have Canada, Mexico, Australia and the United Kingdom. Now obviously I don't have even close to what I should but its just a start, I wish there was a way for us to just manually list our own "everyone else" and if you are not in that bunch then contact me or I will add more from there, because while there are many different costs to different places there are also many of the same. UGH!!! So I'm in need of help and advice from other etsy sellers as to what they do and how its worked for them.


So for now Happy October, this may just be my little boy to be birthday month we shall see. I can't wait!!

Free shipping in September

So this is turning out to be a sports month for Little Mamas Diapers.

I am offering FREE SHIPPING on all of my sports related items. Not including Diaper Cakes and also only in the U.S. anyone wishing to order from outside the US please contact me for a shipping rate at littlemamasdiapers@gmail.com or convo me on my website. Everything that is free shipping is already marked that way so its just order and pay and I will mail, that easy. So since football is starting baseball is still going, I seem to be very sports minded lately and I will be adding more tag blankets (red sox real soon, like in the next day or 2) , little pillow decorations (they just flew out), maybe even some cloth wipes (football).

So for all you sports fans its time to stock up on your gifts and any if theres any birthdays coming up.

Remember that 10% of all my sales this month will be donated to the Fruit Tree Planting Foundation in memory of my grandfather who passed away last month, he was a big outdoorsman that loved to garden and be outside, check out my earlier post.
