I don’t get how you actually drum up business to sell anything. Sure, I am aware of Etsy an such, but beyond that I don’t get it.  I guess I am not a salesman either, LBD. 

Here in Aussieland (more specifically Victoria) we have 2 types of markets...
  1. Typically the Docklands market, where people want quality and are prepared to pay (though still appreciate a bargain).
  2. The cheapskate market like Carribean Gardens... where people want cheap,cheap, cheap... you need to keep your car unwashed just to enter... or rent-a-bomb.  I was offered $10 for 5 pens that was retailing for $60 each.  Took me a bit of effort not to blacken his eye (out of insult).

The daughter used to do door to door down Collins Street (or main drag of all the RF professionals in the Melbourne CBD).  Got a lot of rejects, but that 1 or 2 sale justified a days knocking.

Though this was done about 13 years ago... before Etsy and when people were human. 

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
