		<description><![CDATA[<p>Selling your own jewelery items is very rewarding as an artist, but it could also be so exhausting at the end of the day.  Now if you wish to have a sales representative, no problem so long as you can afford to pay for the service.  But finding a good sales representative is a major challenge.  If you are only starting and your budget is low, let your jewelry be your sales rep until you are able to afford to hire one.  Never forget the importance of <a  target="_blank" href="http://www.beading-software.com/blog/articles/jewelry-business-tips-articles-blog/hang-tags-for-your-jewelry/">Hang Tags For Your Jewelry</a>, these are always traveling around and if someone bought your jewelery at a craft show, they can still contact you or pass your details on to another customer. </p>
<p> There are a few options you may use in finding perfect sales reps for your business.  You may use publications, organizations, trade shows, and other sources you are really acquainted with.  How to advertise in public and how is it done?  Place your ad at the back of a trade mag.  Some mags have a certain section for advertising or commonly known as classified adverts.  It is advisable to run your ad many times for optimal results. </p>
<p> There are also agencies and organizations who will help you find a good sales rep.  One of the best affiliations is The United Association Manufacturer&#8217;s Representative ( UAMR ).  They have several services ; one of those is helping you find a sales rep.  Even though there is payment for the services, it&#8217;s worth it because they can really assure you the most complete process of <a  target="_blank" href="http://www.beading-software.com/blog/articles/jewelry-business-tips-articles-blog/jewelry-business-finding-a-good-sales-rep/">Finding a Good Jewelry Sales Rep</a> that will help you with your line of business. </p>
<p> Gift shows is another excellent method of finding good leads for sales reps.  These shows are typically held in most major cities at least twice yearly.  These shows are strictly for trading and you will have to show some of your references to gain entry to the show.  You can visit different booths that sell jewelery and find the sales rep you&#8217;re looking for.  Then grab the opportunity of picking up business cards and other information of how and when to contact your lead.  Always remember, you can&#8217;t conduct interviews for sales reps in the show!  They&#8217;re at the show to work, not to be interviewed. </p>
<p> There are still tons of sources you can use.  You may visit some marts that have a reps showrooms, jewelery and bead societies, and you may get referrals and suggestions from other businesses.  Some resources can be found online.  Remember that finding good sales reps isn&#8217;t as quick and easy as you think it is.  But once you found the perfect one for your business, it will definitely be a further success for your business! </p>
