Janet Bernasconi says: Excellent tips on how to transform your old product into a new one. I normally do all the things listed here. I create handmade accent pillows and if they don’t sell I update them with a little bling or add a bit of lace and next thing you know it sells. I think an update to your website is great too. And I also think it’s a good idea to show your some of your products on your homepage. This way customers get a first glance at what you offer. I have seen awesome slideshows on different sites listed on their homepage and it catches my attention. I am working on that for my site now and will see where it takes me.
Have a great day and thanks Sarah for such having such an informative site. ;-D
Hugs,

Great ideas in here! I enjoyed reading what other people have actually done, versus just a bunch of “you should’s”.
Thank you so much for all of your ideas. I have so much to think about, deciding on what direction would be best for my business.

How is your January going so far? How is the check list coming along? Just a reminder that it is totally cool and quite required (by me) to take full advantage of all holidays, Hallmark or Federal…..People are conditioned by the big box stores to expect a special sale and are just sitting there waiting for your email to show up and make them an offer they can't refuse. Really!!!
