Before you decide how you want to advertise your work, you will need a logo. You also need to make up some text best describing your work. Photographs of your product are also recommended (make sure these are professional photographs - you want to show your work off to it's best advantage). It is very important to remember that your ads always display your name (logo), address, phone number and website (if you have one). There are many medias for advertising your business: the most common ones are radio, television, the Yellow Pages, brochures, direct mail, magazines, newspapers and specialty advertising.

You've seen other people's work in gift shops and some of yours is definitely better than what you've seen. So you think maybe it's a good idea to start profiting from your quite expensive hobby.
