Small Business Saturday - Mark your Calendars!

According to the Small Business Saturday Consumer Spend Survey 2011, 61% of consumers plan to shop at locally-owned clothing & accessories stories the weekend after Thanksgiving. Are you one of them? {source}

This year, Small Business Saturday falls on November 26th - so mark your calendars! It's a great way to bring exposure and generate extra business to your locally-owned retail shops, restaurants and other small businesses. It's also a great way to support your local economy & ensure your gifts are one-of-a-kind items. =)


....and if you own a small business, be sure to check out the Small Business Saturday Facebook page and website for in-store signage, e-marketing tips & materials, and the opportunity to earn $100 in free Facebook ads.

I'm sure most of you are already making plans for Black Friday shopping. However, please be sure to save a little bit of that shopping energy for Small Business Saturday!!

Interprintations - 2010 in review!

What a fun, frantic, fabulous year it's been in the Interprintations studio! I am so proud of all the accomplishments I was able to conquer this year, and am filled with anticipation to see what's to come in 2011!

I tested our luck at our first bridal show in September - with great success! We are already getting positive feedback & booking brides for summer/fall 2011.

Our Etsy shop saw 143 new customers this year! The customer feedback has been phenomenal. Our designs are selling themselves & our customers are spreading the word about Interprintations - we couldn't be more proud. =)

Our Facebook page has accumulated 147 fans - thank you to all who are following us!
{...and for those of you who are not, here's the link!}

I joined a wonderful local organization called AlphaChicks - an organization for strong, professional women entrepreneurs in the Indianapolis area. I have met some fabulous women & made some great business/networking connections. I'm so glad to call myself
an Alpha Chick!
{This is more of a personal feat for me, but I still wanted to share in case there are any other Indy-area women entrepreneurs reading our blog!}

Thank you to all of our friends, family, fans & customers for your continued support. Interprintations would not be where it is today without you!

I hope everyone has had a prosperous & productive 2010! Cheers to a promising 2011!
