Facebook Winners



Life has been hectic, know y'all can relate. Not only does life not slow down but my computer did...to a complete stop! I think it was a little hint that I need to set limits and that working at home does not mean that you work the entire time you are at Home. Well computer is back up and running and so are I and even better Dylan Blue NEVER stopped. Have no fear , while I was away from y'all here, we have been working diligently and with a PURPOSE...the purpose of making people happy and Spreading our Jewelry Piece by Piece as far as we allow ourselves to imagine. That is a nice thought huh?
First updatee... we have made another sale...which we are incredibly proud of because, one, it has been a slow across the board pretty much and two, well it was our first INTERNATIONAL sale. The celtic blue piece is on it's way to the United Kingdom! Thanks to our VALUED Customer!
Also John has been working his tail off, we came up with a line of Local Football Pendants for my local area, Valdosta GA, TITLETOWN USA...ok a little bragging there. But it is Known fact we take football very serious here in South GA and they play to WIN and WIN they do. I will have a post showing you the finished set coming soon.... got more to share. John has also been doing some fine art work...amazing stuff that I am super proud of and will also share coming soon, I promise IT IS gonna BLOW YOU AWAY! And while I am talking about John and production, I have items sitting that are ready to be listed so he is crackin' them out, while along filling wholesale orders for places such as book stores and for retail shops and boutiques....while working his "real job" aka the one we want to get rid of!
And last but not least....WE have a winner to our contest we ran on our Facebook Fan Page. We are so thrilled at the turn out and gained 46 fans in the allotted contest period. I ran the contest through a site called RANDOM.ORG . Where I typed in the numbered ordered list of entries (each entry was the person and the fan they got to join) and ran it through. Below is shot of WINNERS.... who are DUM DUM DUM (that is a drum-roll).... Elizabeth M. Duquette and Mike Watson! Congrats guys, I will be in touch and I can wait to see what you pick... plus I have stuff to list like I mentioned...so we will definitely chat!. Wow that was fun (even if I was running behind). We plan to run other contest in the future..probably with a totally different idea. Have a good idea...leave us a comment.Go ahead and become a fan of our FACEBOOK page we refer to as Dylan Blue Community because we could not do this without y'all NOR would we want to. We are also constantly thinking of ways to use ourselves and things we learn to be of service to others.

Our BIG Week




Bob Marley nailed that one, don't you think?
Wow what a week we have had. WE are excited to share what all we have accomplished in this first week. Well you know the obvious, we debuted Dylan Blue on etsy with our first 12 designs and set up this blog. Now for what else we have done or ARE doing...
We are still in the process of getting everything set up and constantly working on new designs and products. That will pretty much be a constant- us continually working to make this business bigger & better and make more & more wonderful friends along the way.
About the middle of the week we set up a PAGE for Dylan Blue on Facebook and we are totally blown away and humbled by our turnout of FANS- which I like to refer to as "friends". Within the first 24 hours we had around 220 Fans and at last check, after JUST 2 days... we have just shy of 300 Fans!!! Tonight we claimed our URL for this page ... I will share the post I just made on our page ~ "I am proud to announce that WE have claimed our URL for this page & are proud to tell you that we want YOU to be a part of this page so our NEW URL is...drum-roll please... http://facebook.com/DylanBlueCommunity~see our little picture comes up because that is US! WE choose Dylan Blue COMMUNITY because without YOU -we are not who we are. WE ♥ Your input & even more WE love turning our customers INTO friends." As a fan/friend you will not only be able to see what we are up to but in the future we are planning on offering special deals for just those members and sneak previews on designs- so if you love it the sneak previewed design, send us a message and you can grab it before it is even listed! On this page we also have a discussion going on here to let people suggest ideas that they have for designs and we are listening. We have already gotten some that we love and WE are planning on having a way to honor those who's ideas some to BE...we are thinking we will let them pick out the creative name for the piece... head on over there and give your suggestions or just read others. We will also be having more discussions and tons of interaction on this page- a reason we decided on Community as part of your URL, that is what we want, a place to people to meet up, share and participate. You can go here to join as a FAN (friend) of our page here. WE will add our Facebook badge later this evening to our sidebar for we are want to show of the support we are receiving.
Another thing that is coming up soon and are looking forward to is that weekly we are going to feature something that John has written. I know he would never come on here and post this but he IS one Heck of a writer and y'all are in for a real treat. I am excited personally because I thoroughly enjoy reading his work and know you will too.
Oh I almost forgot some GREAT news we have to share ~ WE MADE our first sale. WE actually had a big response to the one that sold -the Tree of Life~ Infinite Possibilities piece and MORE are on the way! We want to give a big "Thank You" to the person who purchased it and we know that it will bring nothing but GOOD things your way!
Alright everyone~ that has been our BIG WEEK and it would not have been without each and every one of you! Thank you!
