A friend recently suggested that I include a Blog page on my website. Hmmm, write a Blog? A new endeavor, possibly similar to jotting down a note to a friend? Where to start? How about with a progress update? That works.
It has been four months since I officially opened the doors to Briarhill Woodcraft for business. First and foremost, thank you to all the folks that have visited my site and either purchased items or given me valuable feedback. Secondly, my efforts to organize the shop, develop a business plan, research the various web hosting/design companies as well as the e-commerce rules of engagement, and build the first, and second, websites spanned all of 2016. It was a year chocked full of activity to build inventory for the 1Q17 Grand Opening. This year has been no different as I continue to build projects and take time to learn about SEO (note:I'm fine, its not a disease). I have also begun to partner with local shops to offer my items which has been fun as I get to know and enjoy conversations with some great folks. So what's new for the 2Q17 period? How about new items, some of them rustic in nature and others that will permit me to develop a few new skills. And, of course, more than a few rounds of golf (note:the PGA pro's need not worry about me). I would like to hear from the people that are proud owners of my items. Are you enjoying the items you have from my shop? Please leave me a post with any comments or potential new product ideas. Until then, be well and safe travels. Cheers Bill
