It’s finally arrived!: The article about e-commerce written by Jon Torner for the basque weekly Argia. After interviewing me, Jon contacted Itsaso and Bego, from JositaJosi, who also shared their experiences and their view of running a handmade business: The design, production and promotion of items customers can not actually touch.
“The Internet has paved the way for new business opportunities. Less infrastructure is needed and customers have instant access to what they’re looking for. This does not mean, however, it takes less time and effort to run an e-commerce site than a B&M shop. The difference between those two models is not that big…”

Now you can find Olelé fans in Sardaana Henke’s Fabric and Handmade Goodness, a small, beautiful shop in Salzburg.
My friend Mar told Sardaana about Olelé and now she carries some of the japanese and african fans, together with lots of unique accessories, delicious fabrics and her own creations. A beautiful shop, isn’t it?

Today I had a special guest at the studio: Jon Torner, journalist, who is writing an article for the Basque-speaking weekly Argia. Jon and I chatted about selling handmade online, Etsy and other venues, the crafts movement and Olelé.
Jon’s article won’t be published until December, but I am already looking forward to reading it. Being interviewed at home is an important event!
Yay!
23 May 2010 Olelé featured on...What a surprise!
This morning, while checking my Analytics account, I was wondering why one of the fans on sale at the shop was attracting so many visitors.
Craftcult gave me the answer:
Olelé featured in The Storque, Etsy’s blog! Alison picked one of my african print hand fans for her selection of prints for a summer of pattern.
Thanks Alison!
