Early New Year's Resolutions for Bear Chick

It's not even Thanksgiving and I'm already thinking about next year. Here are some goals and things I want to put in place for my business.



Redesign my craft fair set up, complete with Bear Chick banner



New car magnets--the old ones don't mention Etsy



Apply to juried, handmade only shows. No more competing with Cookie Lee and crap made in China



Maintain a marketing calendar, for social networking and other promotional activities



Join a real, live networking group, preferably a chamber of commerce or a women's group, with ties to the community



Learn more about chain making



Get into metal stamping so I can make my own custom charms



Take command of my toaster oven so I can make polymer clay creations that aren't undercooked (floppy) or overcooked (blackened)





Just 'cause I like a blog with at least one picture, here's a sweet little vintage gold tone and garnet pin, currently for sale on Etsy.
