Their answer is "We want to help artisans get into, or enhance their existing E-businesses."a-weddingday.com accomplished just that. It has created shops and income for artisans in a new market that is looking to buy the beautiful works that they create.Nily and Elainem, both artisans from California, realized that there are many other talented artisans who need exposure to a lucrative niche market if they are to sell their work on a professional level and make a living at it. They decided to address this deficiency by creating
a-weddingday.com. A-weddingday.com helps artisans find new markets for their artwork. While offering unique gifts to be cherished forever. When visiting a-weddingday.com, the buyers are re-directed to the artisan's own web site which is not on a-weddingday.com so they can 'work' together one-on-one to create the most meaningful gifts and accessories. "By joining a-weddingday.com I have been able to tap into another whole customer base that I never had thought of before." Said Diane Morgan of Morgan Mailboxes & More. She added "With all the advertising and the digest groups that a-weddingday.com is involved in, it has helped promote my business' name and product to new people." and Norma Adolphson of Elegant Bride said: "I gained the courage to contact some shops here in my town, and now have some of my veils & cake tops in a shop here. I probably would not have done that without the encouragement I received froma-weddingday.com." Nily and Elaine believe that it is of utmost importance to ensure that every
artisan's work is given a fair showing. This is why each participating artisan 'owns' a shop at a-weddingday.com and is promoted on the home page, on the mall page, throughout the Community and otherwise on and off the Internet. Currently, a-weddingday.com has approximately 40 shops, a caring Bridal Community, free informative E-zine, free contests and also offers free web sites and free E-mail addresses.Expert communities are another avenue for artisans' to promote their businesses. As Sheryl of Mrs. Gottrocks Fine Jewelry and Gifts said: "One of my goals is not only to promote jewelry sales on my website, but to give web shoppers a source of honest information and advice to take some of the mystery out of buying jewelry. Being able to be an ''Ask the Expert" Community Leader and jeweler/advisor ona-weddingday.com helps me move further towards that goal."The most wonderful aspect of a-weddingday.com is the camaraderie that developed among the artisans who work together to promote the site, promote each otherand develop marketing opportunities. Viki Teague of Victorian Vintage said: "Networking among the other a-weddingday.com vendors has encouraged me to increase my involvement as a contributor to the site." Nily and Elaine agree that it is rewarding to know that one is not alone but supported by colleagues in trying to get a business up and running. It is often a needed boost in having the courage to proceed.Nily and Elaine have a lot in common. Other than their concern with the welfare of others and their vision for the advancement of the artisan community, they both have a background in education.
