Pin This To Your Face

Have you seen the Wal-Mart commeercial with the young girl telling Dad “we can pin, post, tweet, snap, tag, text & share”? Yeah, sometimes I feel about as confused as her dad looks. But these are things we baby boomers need to learn about. In my case, I need to learn how to use these avenues because I have an eBay store, oohshinycollectibles (shameless promotion #1). I’ve been selling on eBay for 2 years now, and boy, has it been a learning experience. Here are my products, how do I get people to see them? We’ve all mastered email, but email seems to be going the way of the dinosaur, get with it people! So I have a Facebook page dedicated to OohShiny Collectibles (shameless promo #2), a Pinterest page appropriately named  oohshinycollectilbes (SP #3), the aforementioned eBay store (SP #4 or SP #1 x 2) and this blog that I’ve been neglecting because, well, who has time to sit down and type up a blog? Oh yeah, stop rescuing so many Farm Heroes and you might be able to squeeze a little blogging in. Priorities. I’ve been mulling over some things I’d like to write about, things I’ve learned in the past 2 years of my OohShiny (shameless promo #5) experiences. Hopefully, you’ll start reading more blogs from me. Feel free to comment. Learning together is fun.

Let’s Do Launch!

I have a business called OohShinyCollectibles. I’ve been selling my products on ebay for 2 months now, and it’s been quite an experience. Fortunately, it’s all been positive so far. And today, I’ve decided to reach out further. It’s time to let my 500 closest facebook friends in on my business, so to speak. On the facebook page, we will discuss our favorite vintage/retro items. I mainly collect/sell glass, pottery, books, and magazines, but I’m open to whatever you’d like to share. Since the first of the year, I’ve been learning a lot, and I’m sure many of you have things I can learn as well.

If you’re seeing this on facebook, thanks for liking my page. Stop by anytime:)

So let’s do this–let’s talk about our OohShinyCollectibles!
