There is no business without community...

Now you business may be a small one or a large well-known enterprise but it most certain cannot survive without people. Not just customers, PEOPLE. Yes customers are people, and if you don't have a relationship with people you cannot have a business. NOW, people will buy from strangers, but GENERALLY if the product reflects their needs as a PERSON. 

When you go to an event, most of the time no one wants to go alone. Even if you go alone, chances are no one will speak to you if you are alone unless they are really really BOLD.

I consider myself a bold person for the most part, however there are times when i need to lean on others.

Business is no different..dearheart

In order to build a community a network of customers, you have to have a willingness to build. Even in the bible there were times when the temple was destroyed and somebody had to make it up in their mind to do it.

So whether you sell sheets or art cards you will need people. Find your people those who share the same ideals as you, and values you do, you need to get to know them. There are people in your immediate community, etsy even blogging who are despite the computer screen are people who may be inline with your community.

When community goes bad..LET's face it there will be some who do not want to know you, and will not think what you have is important or maybe they want to be you! Either way, be gracious and  remember to always shake the dust from you feet. If the community is rejecting you there's a good reason. Either you need to change something or do something to feel more a part or that simply isnt the community for you.

NOTE if someone is asking you to change the thing they want you to change should be something GOD doesnt mind you giving up. If its something GOD gave you and it truly is yours well then maybe you need to move on...but if it isnt then perhaps its something you need to shed. If for instance you are trying to break into business and it is requiring things of you that compromise your integrity think again. You like to BLOG, but in order to blog you need to spend time away from family or other important things, perhaps you need to reconsider. You'll business will grow if you follow the truth, otherwise you may find that you have all this product and no family to help you enjoy it.
