My guest this week is Rebecca from BexMarie.com. She’s a maker and a web designer and in our conversation this week we’re talking all about making the right decision when (and if) it’s time to set up a space for your creative business in your own corner of the internet.
Rebecca and I met virtually through Facebook and I’m happy that we could have this convo. 🙂
Rebecca started off in web design before she started making soap so she’s been involved with tech side of things for a while and has some unique perspectives on how to go about branching out from your Etsy shop.
In our conversation, we discuss:
- The anatomy of a website – both front end and back end (you need to understand what goes into all this)
- Comparisons between various platforms for website building and hosting (if that sounds like Greek to you, you’ll understand more when you hear this conversation)
- Services Rebecca offers and how they’re different from those offered by others
- Tips and advice for sellers for 2018
- And much more…
