Create a store category on your eCommerce site for your great graduation gifts.
Create a Graduation themed Pinterest board
Promote your grad gifts on Twitter mixing them in with tips and facts on graduations.
You can also feature grad theme posts on your Facebook business page.
While posting make sure you mix in lots of great social content. Post tips on what to wear at graduation, graduation party tips, graduation travel tips etc..

Want more customers?
Listen.Yup listen.
What’s your area of sales? Let’s say pet products.
Go on twitter and Pinterest and in search pets, names of breeds etc..
Then engage.
On Pinterest leave friendly comments. Like Pins.
On Twitter search by hashtags & engage in a similar way being brief using a few words. Retweet. Be nice. Be friendly.
What you’ll find is people will follow you. They will respond to your comments by favoriting them etc..
It’s about creating relationship and community.
They’ll see you sell products and if they’re interested they’ll come take a look at your products. Nothing wrong with your mentioning them while you’re also busy liking their posts & retweeting their comments.
Be friendly. Have fun. You will gain far better results than sell sell sell. You’ll also have more fun. Fun is contagious. Hard sell is not.
Friendly engagement is attractive to people.

My background is sales.
I waitressed my way through college to pay bills. I continued as a waitress after graduation when I landed in New York City to pursue my dream of acting professionally.
As a successful actress in NYC I learned through job hunting ( auditioning) to present my skills & ability well.. and yup that’s sales.
As part of my acting career I was chosen to be an on air guest product presenter on the QVC Shopping Channel in the 1990s. I successfully sold numerous household & health items.
Now I love selling from my home on the internet.
Why?
It’s my business. I am my own boss. I love the variety & flexibility that a home ecommerce business brings to my daily life.
I’ll be blogging here to offer free tips to small to medium ecommerce entrepeneurs.

I’m here to cheer you on!
Having a home based ecommerce business is a great source of added money for your household budget. It could become your sole income.. let’s see what happens!
