AUGUST PCETEAM NEWSLETTER

The PCETeam

AUGUST NEWSLETTER

Summer has almost come and gone.  Many of us have children who will go back to school in just a few weeks.


1) TEAM REQUIREMENTS: Keep in mind that we have a team requirement.  Each member is required to have at least 3 polymer clay items in your store at all times.  We have been emailing those of you who no longer meet these requirements.  Please be sure you are up to date on your store listings.  Please do NOT forget our team rules, we want everyone to be able to participate, but you must meet the Team requirement. While we would like our team to be a vibrant and happy place to be, we are also asking that each team member go by the rules we have established as part of the do. Your store will NOT be automatically kicked off the team. If we find that your store no longer meets the criteria, a convo will be sent to you allowing 1 week for your response before you will be removed from the Team. Once you have corrected your store to fit in with our requirements, you can reapply and rejoin the team and we will welcome you back with open arms!
2) CHALLENGE YOURSELF: NO CHALLENGE THIS MONTH - Enjoy the last few weeks of summer
3) LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR! You will see this on our team discussion page. It is your opportunity to interact with other team members. We ask that you would pick your favorite item from the store listed ABOVE you. You can participate as often as you want in this discussion.
4) TREASURY: Create a treasury with any theme you choose using at least 12 PCETeam members.You MUST include the team tag "pceteam" on the treasury. You can use non-team members, but we ask that the entire treasury be polymer clay since we are promoting our art
5) HAPPY CLAYING: If you're not having a good time while playing/designing with clay, then why do it?


DO NOT FORGET TO CHECK THE AUGUST MERCHANDISING DESK FROM ETSY. Many of us do not pay attention to this little newsletter that Etsy puts out. Please take time to read this most valuable information.  If you follow this guide your store gets high ratings, sales, and even a chance to make it to Etsy's coveted Front Page. Don't miss out, go and read up on this month's trends.


POSITION STILL AVAILABLE:
***WE ARE LOOKING FOR A BLOGGER! If you LOVE to work on blogs and are familiar with blogger (blogspot.com), we need some help. With my busy schedule as well as Trina & Amy's busy schedules, finding time to blog is hard to do when we're each running our own blogs also. If you are interested in this, please convo the Team Captain (toystorynutty).

Other ways to interact during your month off:

1) Put together a treasury

2) Feature another team member on your blog

3) Update your store & listings and share it with us

To all team members, GOOD LUCK!
Please remember, these additional challenges are NOT required for membership in the team.
