Default Question

I have an interesting question for you all There's a new book that I just finished reading called 'Radical' and it really inspired me to do something to make a difference. After mulling over some different ideas, I had the idea of creating a website for my handmade cards and giving 100% of the proceeds to world missions (which specific one I'm not exactly sure yet). Do you think I would actually sell anything? How would I get the word out? I know that some of you sell your cards through different craft boutiques, etc, but we really don't have any of those around. A website would be much easier for me to keep track of, anyway.

What are your thoughts on my 'radical' idea?

PS The cards in my gallery are not at all like the ones I would be selling simply because a) I take terrible pictures of my creations b) I hardly ever upload any new cards. Just FYI ;)

That's a great idea, and a neat way to use your gifts to bless others! I say go for it! You would probably get most traffic in an etsy shop - it's free to open and otherwise the fees are very reasonable.

What about talking to friends/family/neighbors/co-workers and see if they would be willing to buy some for such a great cause. How very sweet of you.
