Business plans

Hi,

I just finished an online application to receive funding for a student employee under the Canada Summer Job. It is nerve wrecking to try to make sure that I do everything correctly. It is exciting at the same time. I hope that the application is successful.

I just received a further update about a Precious Metal Clay (PMC) workshop that is taking place from March 6 - 9. I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT IT!!!! I can't wait. It should be a great learning experience. I am hoping to be able to incorporate techniques that I learn from this workshop to my other jewelry projects, especially my beach glass jewelry.

Things seem to be moving ahead.

Take care,
Andrea

Marketing Your Business on the Internet

Hi,

Welcome to Karlande Designs. I am currently in the process of setting up my business in Handcrafted Jewelry. I design and create jewelry using different media such as: beach/sea glass; gemstones; pounded metal. I am also developing a line of Cancer-Awareness jewelry - part of the proceeds from the sale of the jewelry is donated for Cancer Research.

I am so excited about moving ahead.

As a matter of fact, I am currently in the middle of a "Marketing Your Business on the Internet" to learn how to market my business.
