Gotta be honest here, I'm pretty excited!!
Google "elegant corporate event favors" and "elegant corporate event party favors". Who do you see? ME!! CherishedGiftsFavors.com is ranked #1 on Google! My other keywords are doing really well on Google too. My hard work and $$$ are paying off. I just tightened up my keywords on my home page and then I paid a company to validate my website. If the company will ever get their act together and give me a quote I'm going have them do a Mod Rewrite on the inner pages of my website to help me get ranked better on Yahoo & MSN. Google likes me, Yahoo & MSN, not so much. Go figure since Google is the hardest search engine to get into.
As far as marketing goes, in addition to my normal weekly ads, I also advertised on a new website. I haven't heard anything else from them so I'll have to check out their website to see how they are doing. I was one of the first to advertise in their shopping section, but the price was really good so I decided to take a chance on them. Hopefully they will be able to drive a lot of traffic to their site very soon.
The magazine that I advertised in plus had a 2 page spread featuring my products has been out for about a month, but I haven't seen one single sale from it. Very disappointing.
I'm still working on my idea to promote my party favors and personalized gifts for corporate events. I will see how it all comes together over the next few weeks.
Don't forget to tell others about me. Cherished Gifts & Favors is really growing, but I still need all the help I can get in the marketing department.

I have been reading your blog with interest, and I must say you inspire me! I also love your products- and since it looks like I may be heading for wedding #2, you know you will have a loyal customer!
Congrats and may all your dreams come true!
Wow! What a nice compliment. I didn't really think anybody was reading my blog.
I must say your words really touched me. My dream is to build my business so I can inspire others to follow their dreams. It would bring me a great amount of joy (in the future) to be able to share my knowledge with others so they could use it to build their business whatever it may be. The lack of available mentors is a real challenge for me. I hope to change that as my company grows so that others won't feel all alone as I have often felt.
Have you thought about making a fall catalog for businesses?
I'm currently adding new fall themed favors to my website and will soon add winter theme favors. The cost of printing and distrubting a catalog is too much for me to take on right now. However, I am going to advertise in the fall issue of a bridal magazine.
