Instead of writing about the features, write about the benefits. A feature is: color, size. A advantage is: fashionable color, compact size.

It's been some time since I've posted anything on this web site, but now I find myself at a loss and would welcome suggestions, recommendations from other leather workers on this site. I was recently asked to remove my leather gun holsters from a well known web platform that I was on for a little over 6 years with a five star rating. It seems as though this web site feels posting leather gun holsters for sale violates their policy and contributes to the sale of firearms. Gun holsters, by their standards and considered an accessory, to guns promotes violence. I've checked a few of the local newspaper outlets in my area and some other means of getting my services advertised and have run into the same issues. I'm a retired law enforcement and insurance investigator and have never promoted violence. I spent my lifetime work career to combat the same. At any rate, I am at a loss as to where I can find an avenue for advertising my skills on a shoe string budget. I do not have my own web page. I've considered it, but have not been able to find a platform that does not nickel and dime expenses for listings, seller fees, etc. If any of you have and suggestions or recommendations, I will listen to any and all. Thanks! -
I have been going to gun shows for just about a year now to sell custom holsters and gun leather. I recently bought 2'x3' corrugated (horizontal ribs) signs to advertise my spot. Aside from building a 25 piece PVC frame and spending 2-3 hrs setting up, is there a simple sign system that can be made to post signs, overhead, for attendees to see. I know this isn't leather-specific, but I know some of you have gone to a lot of shows and have seen better stuff than I have. I currently have 2 or 3 great regular customers, but would like to get more. I'm thinking being able to be found (again) may have something to do with it.

Beginner looking for marketing advice.
Misterbeesleather posted a topic in Marketing and Advertising
I'm not so much a beginner in leatherwork itself. But i am a newb on selling handmade leather goods. I'm looking for advice as to how to start a buisness. I tried selling on etsy and it went ok but it wasn't really a buisness. Does anyone have any ideas on where i could start? There is this farmers market every saturday in my city and i was thinking I could try selling there. Im open to any ideas whether it be online or out in the real world. What worked for you? -
Hey Folks, Been a very long time since I have posted anything. Years ago I was very interested in making saddles and learning the trade. I ended up getting very busy in the career field I left years ago, and found myself back in. Commercial Photography. I had my business in Maine and just shut my studio down and have since moved to Denton Texas, just nort of Dallas and Fort Worth. My goal is to expand my business to include equine photography for ads and promos. (not a show photographer) But, I still do studio work. SO, if any of you saddle, tack or makers of other fine cowboy trappings need professional images of your products for web or catalog, give me a shout and lets see if we can put something together for you. Feel free to look at some of my various projects at my website wwwDManske.com I am sure there are craftsmen and women in the area that could use some good images for their business. My contact info is on my website. Glad to See Leatherworker is still going strong! Best regards, Dennis Manske

I found this great series of articles on how to get that first sale -- or improve your current sales. Here is the link: https://ecommerce.shopify.com/guides/make-your-first-ecommerce-sale I don't think anyone can do everything they suggest and still have time to make anything. But a few of these ideas should help. Let me know what you think.
