I like the friendly atmosphere of Folksy - feel welcome as part of the Folksy family. No real issues but could Foksy or advertise the makers items more?

Folksy is a great place

Folksy is a great place to find genuine handmade items, at good prices and most of all by UK makers. Prices are always competitive and are delivered in a very timely manner. I would and do recommend shopping on Folksy to all of my friends and family. Thank you

Folksy Brand Presence

I set my shop up in August and have been promoting it like mad since on other social platforms BUT when I tell folk I'm selling on Folksy they have ALL replied " Oh! What's that ? -I've never heard of it!
Folksy - you really need to get out there and promote and advertise yourself. The sellers are out there promoting their individual shops but unless you at Folksy - advertise more as a selling platform we won't attract new customers whatever we do. You really do need to get the Folksy brand and message out there.

Have signed up to sell on Folksy about…

Have signed up to sell on Folksy about 3 weeks ago. The shop was simple to set up and I love how it looks.
Everything worked well and there has been lots of support and advice available through email.
I was expecting it to take awhile to sell anything but have already had my first order come through.

Genuine Handmade

Not (yet) as well known as the big corporate American sites but genuine and honest, a great platform to market your UK handmade items and craft supplies. Has a fantastic, supportive, community spirit both from the company’s representatives and other sellers in the forums.

Perfect site for UK handmade items

Folksy is a wonderful site full of amazing artists.
The site is easy to use and great for gifts.
I haven't had any issues with any of my orders and all the artists I have brought from have been very helpful.
Added bonus that ALL items are made in the UK by hand !

As a new vendor on Folksy

As a new vendor on Folksy, i have been very impressed with the service and platform in general. It is very easy to use and navigate with simple tools and sections. I like that it feels very community based and that they really care for the sellers and customers they have. I hope my Folksy shop with do well - I have sold 5 items already and only had it for a week!
