Springing into Summer!

Well it feels like Summer might be here and Winter might be back on alternate days at the moment!  Hope that the weather settles down soon into a lovely Summer!  Good luck to everyone attending Summer Fairs this year - look forward to hearing how you all do!

Next event on the retail calendar is Father's Day now and we have a day dedicated to a Father's Day Gift Guide so we can see a wonderful array of unique products - so much better than you can find on the High Street!


Here is a resume of the services available to you.

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.

Twitter 140²

This is available to book on a weekly basis.  Over 7 consecutive days  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 start date and 10 links by at the very latest 6pm on the day before your promotion starts.

Traditional Promotion

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 #britcraft

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.
