We're back!




Bring out the bunting!  We are back!  Rested, revived and ready for lots of fun, promotion, networking & cake as we head into the Autumn! 
We hope that you have all had a super Summer!

Behind the scenes we have been busy with the imminent publication of our 2nd Newsletter and working on our Showcase Magazine that we hope to share with you really soon!  It's going to be good!

We have also been working on how we can extend the fabulous promotions on FB that work so well onto Twitter.  We have come up with some great Twitter packages that we hope you will like!

There is the 1 day Twitter Boost package, perfect if you are wanting to showcase a new item or have news to spread.  

There is also now a 7 day package Twitter 1402  that  will get you out there far and wide.  This runs over 7 consecutive days for maximum effect.





Smaller businesses everywhere use Twitter to connect with existing and new customers. It’s a quick, easy way to share, promote and drive word-of-mouth communication about your business.


Whether you’re new to Twitter or a seasoned expert, we’ve got what you need to help you reach your goals. With almost 17K followers we are in a unique position to help you to connect with potential customers whilst increasing your own profile on Twitter.

There are 2 exciting new options open and available to you to book....


The first is Twitter Boost

This is available to book on a daily basis and over a 24 hour period you will receive a total of 20 tweets with up to 4 unique links of your choice.  These can be to your shop, a particular item, your fb page or your blog. 5 of these tweets will have photos attached to them for greater exposure on Twitter. In addition your @twittername will be used so that your account will gain exposure leading to more followers for you. After booking you must email britishcrafters@gmail.com with your choice of date and your 4 links.
The second option is Twitter 1402

This is available to book on a weekly basis.  Over 7 consecutive days (Mon - Sun) you will get 140 Tweets - 20 a day in each 24 hour period. You get to choose 10 unique links of your choice.  These can be to your shop, a particular item, your fb page or your blog. 5 of these tweets a day will have photos attached to them for greater exposure on Twitter. In addition your @twittername will be used in some of the tweets so that your account will gain exposure leading to more followers for you. After booking you must email britishcrafters@gmail.com with your choice of date and your 10 links.

If you don't have Twitter then you can still use our Twitter Promotional Services as essentially it will drive people to your shop.

In the future we do plan to have Twitter Start Up packages that will be available to book where we will guide you from the setting up of your account, help you with your first tweets and explain how to get a Twitter account that really works for you!  More details to follow on this....soon!

Traditional Promotion

This works brilliantly and is what we have been offering for almost a year now. The our customers have been very pleased with increased traffic/sales and most go on to rebook with us :)

What you get for this is


a. A Featured Spot on Facebook with a shop link to your item and an uploaded photo plus a link to your fb page. (Bringing you new likes to your fb page too!)
b. 3 tweets to your featured item using #britcraftplus
c. Pinned to the Featured Shops Pinterest Board for that month. (promoted all month)
d. A Stumbleupon Review for your item.




For people that haven't yet booked with us here is a guide for you!



1.  Have a look at the upcoming themes on the drop down menus to see which of your items fit into which themed category.

2.  Decide on whether you want to book a single day or book for 5 days which saves you 20%.

3.  Purchase your chosen day or block of days from the drop down menu. The price is £2.50 for a day or £10 for 5 days.

4.  Email britishcrafters@gmail.com with your item link/links for promotion. If you have booked for 5 days then you need to send 5 links.

5.  Links must be received by 6pm please on the day before you wish to be shared.

6.  Shop links work better than FB links as you can't Pin to Pinterest from FB.  If however you only sell from a Facebook page then we will work extra hard to promote your facebook page on both Facebook and Twitter.
7.  As soon as your shop link is received you will be pinned to the Featured Shops Pin board and your promotion starts.

8.  Sit back and let us do the hard work for you!

 Below are the links to book slots.
  
If you want to book additional boosting Twitter promotion - select from the promotion options available.  Use this independently as promotion or in conjunction with our Traditional promotion.

Of course we will continue to work our FB page as before with a good number of free shares and in order to keep the wonderful dynamic of the page we will continue to do free shares with fb only links and will also limit the number  of paid slots available each day.  Once that number is achieved it will be marked on the drop down menu as "sold out"

Our Twitter promotions will also be limited in number as we value our followers and don't want them to switch us off if we are tweeting promotions too much!  We want to keep them all so that they will spend money in your shops!

Here's to an exciting September and beyond!
