How can I find contacts to purchase my handcrafted Native American beaded jewelry?
My husband and I have a Native American crafts business that deals mostly in hand beaded jewelry. We normally travel the powwow trail but with gas prices the way they are it is making it very hard to cover expences. I have decided to try wholesaling my jewelry. I would still earn an honest living and cut out all the aggrivation of traveling. But have no idea how to reach contacts and let the word out. I do this full-time, so production is no problem. I have a paypal account already set up. Most of my bases are covered except getting product out on the market. Does anyone have realistic ideas or would even be interested?
I would look into this site for crafters and other artisans to sell their work through. It is really really cheap to post listings.

If you decide to do something like that, afterward I’d advertise yourself as much as you can online and however else, and submit your shop/page URL of it to freebie search engine submit things. Good luck! : )
