classifieds (2)

Hello everyone. 

I just wanted to encourage everyone to check out our Classified section here at AFI.  There is no limit to what you can sell here.  There are pro panels, and credit card machines, but there are some other very interesting things, too.  Did you know there is a cottage for sale right now?  That's right, a cottage on Indiana's Brown Lake about half way between Chicago and Detroit.  This cottage could make a great stopping off point for artists traveling back and forth to Art Shows. It could also be a great summer vacation get-a-way for your family.  We all need time to recuperate.

Did you know there is also a house and studio for sale in Minnesota?  Where can you sell a house or a cottage for only $25.  That is quite a bargin, too.  Both the price of the house and the cottage are negotiable.  Check it out, you may want to make an offer.

Once you post your ad, the ads stay on the site until they are sold.  There is no time limit!  How great is that?  All ads cost $25.  Plus, the beauty of listing things at AFI is that everybody here basically is in the same business as you are.  Everyone here needs almost the same things to conduct Art Fair business as you do.  You have the best chance of making a sale with your items than any where else.  Over 5,000 people may need what you have.

You can also post cars, vans, boats, and trucks for sale here, too.  You can include photos to help you sell your items, as well.  Photos can be a very valuable selling tool.  If you included a photo with an ad to sell a car in your locale newspaper it could very well end up costing more than $25.  Plus, with an ad in your local paper, the buying audience interested in your item may only be a handful of people.  Here at AFI, you are selling your items to an audience of over 5,000 people!  How great is that?

Do you need to swap houses for a month?  Do you need to find a nanny?  Do you have a boat or travel trailer to sell or trade?  Do you have tickets to a concert that you need to sell?  Do you have a cottage that you rent out by the week all summer long?  It is time to clean house and unload those unwanted items.

You can sell or find almost anything here.   All the information you will need to list your items is in the following link:

Changes at Art Fair Insiders - Part II

There is so much interesting content pouring in here that there is no way I can keep up with it so I have instituted some changes to make it easier for us all. Thank you everyone for your participation! 1. A good way to keep up with the particular discussions you are interested in is to click on the "Follow-Email me" link at the bottom of all Forum discussions. This will tell the system to automatically email you when people respond to topics you find interesting. It's a great time saver. 2. I have again reorganized the discussions area (forum). I hope it makes sense to you and I'm still looking for feedback on it. Don't forget the "follow me" at the bottom. 3. I kept missing new details on the show reviews section because people were posting them in two different places, the blog and the show reviews. So this afternoon I closed down the "show reviews" and copied the archives into the blog. Well, actually I didn't, but my trusty tech guy did. The advantage of having the show reviews as blog posts is that you can add photos, links to sites and also add "tags" at the bottom so we all 1116310745FSO41q.jpgcan search the site for information more easily. 4. It is time for a little trickle of income on the site so the classifieds are no longer free. As of today it is $25 to post a classified ad. Heck, if you sell your van here, or your laptop, or your Flourish canopy it might be worth $25 to you. I'm sure you will understand. The above is just part of what I was working on in Los Angeles this past week with my Internet guru, Scott Fox. We also did a lot of google analytics stuff and worked on marketing issues, all of which will bring better exposure to the site and useful tools to you. Let me know how this all looks to you. Comment below. We are listening!
