I even opened a "make your own" section in my store because my dolls sell better when the customer can decide certain details like color, a phrase, etc... each of my items takes so much time that to stock my store is tough so having always the option to make a custom order is the best for me! of course I have to be careful with my time frames, some dolls like my big Fridas take me sometimes up to 10hrs. to make so I cannot make them in stress time like Xmas (right now!) so I`m careful to take them out of my store in those times... :D thank you for the info!!!! :DCara Carminahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386713043726514978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826256042560817893.post-56691118429309831472011-10-27T22:55:10.915-07:002011-10-27T22:55:10.915-07:00This points out a lot of things I did wrong with a...This points out a lot of things I did wrong with a wishy-washy request a while back. It wasn't a "custom-order," more of a "custom-request" initiated by the potential buyer. It ended in me spending a lot of time and expense searching for the materials, making desired items into jewelry, then the customer deciding not to purchase because she could get something cheaper elsewhere. Ouch! The items she purchased were cheaply made too, but that's not the point if that's what she wanted. <br /><br />I didn't insist that we communicate clearly, I was too eager to please, and I got bit on that one. The real downer is that the products are not really my style, so I'm not sure what to do with them. Good lessons are presented here that I learned the hard way. (I'm "taking notes" for next time though! Rather than write-off custom orders all together, I just need to do a better job up front.) Many thanks for the insightful tips!Sharylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11290002867469159820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826256042560817893.post-63287975247500623042011-10-27T13:04:30.100-07:002011-10-27T13:04:30.100-07:00This has arrived just in time!
