It is hard to make your very first step. I do not remember my first word, my first step, but I do remember how hard it was to write my first letter, to solve my first math problem, to decide what college to go to... what to cook for dinner... You got to make that first step to move forward. And... here it is...my first blog. 01/11/11

Dilema... Dilema... ?? ??? ????
My dear teammates,
For about 6 mo. I have a small quantity of my jewels at a newly opened nail & electrolysis place.The place is open on demand, maybe 2 days a week and the owner is still working for someone else. Last week I went there to talk to the owner about the feedback she gets from her clients on my jewels. Here is what she said, quote: "People want bling. I went to New York and to Chinatown. I brought back bling bangle bracelets. Three days later they were all gone. I sold them for $25. Too bad I did not bring more."
I explained to her that I do not make that style of jewelry, which she knew what I made as I showed my work to her when we first met.
Now, I need your opinion.
1. Should I just get out of there since this is not my target market?
OR
2. Should I start making bling?
I like bling sometimes! I just do not make bling.
I believe I know what I want to do but it would be great to hear your thoughts.
Thanks a lot for your input.

Feedback
It is hard to buy an item when you can not try it on or touch it. That is why I am always worried if my buyer will like the item purchased. Today, I want to thank you all my buyers for trusting to purchase from me and want to share some of their feed-backs:
THANK YOU!!!
