Despite every piece of advice out there (about marketing) I'm staying true to myself. I'm going to continue being me, bot online and offline. Some people would want to see me split my blog into a million pieces (one for every category), but that's not me. I'm the sum of those parts. So well written Tara :) I like your style.

For that....thank you! I am just beginning to sell my stuff online....well....anywhere for that matter. Also, I am very new to understanding blogging and discovering what is there. I want to be able to put myself out there, but I struggle with it. I am somewhat of a private person. I have no qualms with sharing myself with like minded individuals such as yourself and your readers, but I hold onto this anxiety about folks outside of that circle getting too much information about myself and my family on the internet. Are there any words of wisdom that you can send my way?? Many thanks! I have just started reading Scoutie Girl, and I am loving the sincerity and generosity the I’ve found. For that….thank you!

Yes, I totally agree. I have a large FB following because I share my personality and make people feel welcome, appreciated and don't sell directly. It is more about sharing than selling. My blog posts are informational. I like to share what works for me as far as marketing and often share the blogs I follow or the information I find in research. I don't have that many subscribers to my blog yet, about 55, but it is a good start. Thanks again for sharing, it is nice to know that there are other people that believe it is better to give of yourself than hold secrets when it comes to success at marketing and selling arts and crafts.
