When you make a new product, it doesn’t become your best piece, it is just new…..to you!

When you make a new product, it doesn’t become your best piece, it is just new…..to you!

I have met many artists and crafts people that dismiss their stock to show off a new piece they have just made/designed/painted etc.

Remind yourself, it is new to you only….customers don’t know what is your latest design and what is old stock.   We have all carried around a piece that we are sick of looking at, hoping it will get lost or sold at a cheap price so we don’t have to lug it around with us anymore….your customers know nothing about the old boring stock or new exciting (to you) stock you have.

Its best not to put down your old stock or belittle it!

People (customers) only care about themselves…….. in the nicest way possible.

They look at some product or service and wonder how it will benefit them, if you put down your work because it is old stock then a customer will have less value for it.

Remind yourself, a good wine, an early edition book  or expensive painting gets better with time!

Use positive words with all your pieces ….early work, original design, last of a limited edition……

Your customers want to feel special, whether spend a few euro or a few thousand……everyone wants to feel good, let them enjoy buying your work and feeling like they are getting something worthwhile…at one stage it was your best/newest piece!
