This is the way to go. tell the shop owners u will put ur cards in their shelves. they dont have to pay u upfront just yet. u colect after a week.. bec u r a new business owner, u want to check on how ur cards are doing in each of the shops u placed them. so u will know where exactly they sell best. so its good to make a weekly store visit to the shops selling ur cards.
A site I've used in the past ...

Hope that helps.
Reply:Many stores don't even control their own inventory. They have a buyer to do that for them. So, to get started, you will probably have to contact a very small business or make a website for yourself. If you make the artwork or take photographs, a calendar might be easier to sell.
Reply:Get into every craft show in your area that you can. Try to offer the cards to gift and flower shops in your area, especially privately owned ones, not chain stores. Sell them at church bazaars and other community gatherings. Good luck and keep hopeful!!!
