Interview with Bebop Part 1
What's Your Name?
Bebop:
Rico:
List your shop(s) -
Bebop :
BebopWeddings
I created Bebop's Weddings because I wanted a store that specialized in wedding collections. My other store, Bebop's Place, was too general in nature for a wedding focus.
Rico:
How did you find Zazzle?
Bebop :
I belong to a photo website, Daily Pics at http://dailypics.ning.com/. Several of the photographers on Daily Pics are also on Zazzle and encouraged me to join the Zazzle community.
Rico:
How long have you been at Zazzle?
Bebop :
Since the end of February, 2010
Rico:
Are you a ProSeller?
If yes, how long from the time you open a shop until you made it to ProSeller?
Bebop :
Yes. About 1 1/2 years.
Rico:
What made you decide to open your own store?
Bebop :
I wanted to offer wedding invitations, cards and gifts that were different from the standard lace and damask variety.
Rico:
What makes your shop stand out from the rest?
Bebop :
I hope I have conveyed my sense of wonder and love of nature in the wedding designs I have chosen.
Rico:
How would you describe your design style?
Bebop :
On the most part, my designs are based on my original nature photography although I also do some graphic design.
Rico:
What type of product do you prefer to design?
Bebop :
I find setting up formats for the various wedding invitations very challenging. I want them to be readable, easily understood, and pleasing to the eye and soul.
Rico:
What's the best advise you got when you were starting out?
Bebop :
Do only careful, quality work and take lots of time with the descriptions and tags.
Rico:
What was your first sale (include link)?
Bebop :
My first sale in Bebop's Weddings was 50 wedding brunch invitations.
