Rosetinted   10 #97 Posted September 23, 2012 hi, iv been making cupcakes, advertising on fb, but things are abit slow, everyone says my work is brill but dont know how else to advertise, what doesnt cost alot of money ! iv put so much money into it, and also recently making various gift items, packed with sweets, for adults and kids, but i feel like im wasting my time..... Any suggestions plz ? if you want to look at my work, its.....Cupcakes For A Treat !  Julie - I would mailshot/visit local pubs and WMCs that offer functions rooms for parties, weddings etc... People are specifically looking for that type of thing and you'd be right there. Maybe take some into local places and speak to the manager. Getting your face in is really important and they remember you.  Good luck hun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
