So my previous post. I asked what a few words meant.
These are words you would normally find on
an invitation.
I see a few people responded on our facebook
and twitter page.
I would love for people to READ! Before they send inquiries
about things that are clearly stated on any document.
I've received inquiries about the invitation for the Spring Fashion Mixer.
One question asked. Is the event FREE?! The invitation states this event is
complimentary. (Which
means free). Another question received, what will be at the event?
The invitation also states, there will be shopping, live music, food,
kid friendly environment, networking...also listed were names
of companies that will be in attendance.
I mentioned this to say. DON'T BE A SLOPPY READER.
So by now you all know I'm obsessed with the newest addition to our family. Taylor-Nicole!
What better way to honor her arrival as we upgrade our Kids Collection?!
Taylor-Nicole Earrings & Bows will launch March 24th, 2012!
We will periodically post previews leading up to the launch!
I understand some are hesitant to share certain information about their business on twitter. My experience has been up and down as it relates to this issue. I don't mind sharing information with others. I do however, mind when I share my creations, names and previews that others steal and try to pass it off as their own. For instance many have sneak peeks of their products so I decided to have previews. Now I'm seeing more of my followers having them as well. Let's not talk about the 2 recent young ladies naming their company EAR-REPLACEABLE!!!! I've received multiple inbox messages about my designs only to find later they were collecting information to COPY. Is this also the reason most don't interact via business pages? Because most are too busy twatching? For these reasons I see now why many lock their accounts and aren't as willing to share information.
What has been your experience?
Imitation is not a sincere form of flattery. IT'S ANNOYING, LAZY AND TACKY.
We've been working on our new website and new accessories. Here's a preview of what's next!!!! You can still view and purchase our 7952 designs from our current site! www.dbtcollection.com
Many think our Shape it up Earrings come as is. No!!!! There's a process.
The images below will give you an idea of what takes place during the creative process.
I've come across a few earrings non-re-designs *I made that word up* that I would like to talk about.
The dollar store earrings that you take home and had 2 chains and call it Designs by Foo Foo...PLEASE STOP IT.
Then we have the gold hoop Beauty Supply Store earrings. I actually saw someone selling a few pair that they painted and others they dipped in glitter. Below are what I called the Beauty Supply Earrings before the non-re-design takes place.
Are we calling these people designers or what?! Please let me know. There's a line I have to draw between designing, being creative, and just plain Tacky.
If you follow us on twitter ( www.twitter.com/7952earrings) or facebook (www.facebook.com/1designsbytraci) you know we get questions about Feather earrings and the so called "basketball wives earrings". I've never addressed it here so I decided to do so today since I received another request.
Straight to the point: Feather earrings...We off that. Basketball wives earrings...Never been on that.
For all of your other accessory needs visit our website!!!
