After much pondering, I've decided to set up a shop on
Hyena Cart - an online shopping venue offering a variety of earth-, child-, and family-friendly items. As a cloth diapering mama, I've purchased many things from WAHM shops on Hyena Cart, but when I set up
my shop, felt Etsy's structure worked better for me. Now that I've been on Etsy over a YEAR
(wow!), I am going to give HC a shot as well. No change to my current structure, just an additional channel.
I think it will be good for a few reasons:
- Lots of diapering families are already familiar with HC
- Offers (what I think will be) an easier checkout method for custom items
- Has many child specific items, whereas Etsy has all sorts of crafts
- An additional channel will be an additional source of new visitors!
- You don't need an account to shop
The challenge will be to make sure they are both updated, current, and filled with fluffy goodness. I may start with just custom fleece on HC, and leave all of my wool on Etsy so its in one place for now.
I'll be sure to post when its up and running! Any of my shopper friends/readers out there have any comments, advice, or thoughts on this new adventure? Please share!
