How would you start marketing handmade jewelry?

If you own and run a business on the internet, how would you list that in your resume?

I'm going to be starting my own business in a few weeks, selling various handmade items such as: jewelry, sculpture, pottery, journals, sketchbooks, screen printed items [T-shirts, napkins, tablecloths], scarfs, posters, prints, etc. that I've made. In addition to making all of the items, I've also been working on a marketing campaign for my online store as well, including newspaper ads, [both for print and online] and video ads.

What is the correct way to list something like that on a resume? [Last semester, the profs taught us how to write our resumes since it was an important part of our portfolios, but they never covered what you should do if you run a business on the internet. I'm just asking since I would like to keep my resume up to date.]

simply explain what you did.

    Rather than trying to find a representative (that could be difficult to find or costly), I would start locally. Take samples to locally owned businesses that might sell that type of jewelery product and see if they would be interested in selling it. It could be on a consignment basis. Another option would be to rent a booth at a craft fair or event… there are a lot of Christmas opportunities coming up. Also a website might be a good idea. You could sell online, but it’s also a good marketing tool. That way when you have opportunities to sell or make a sale, you can give out your contact and website to encourage further sales. If you are successful on a smaller scale, it will probably naturally progress and new opportunities will come along to expand. Good luck!
