The Power of YouTube = Sales

The OH is into Natural hair in a BIG way, and spends hours on forums, blogs and YouTube. Due to this obsession she has designed a t-shirt on the subject. Natural hair is a massive market, particularly in the USA. She has a blog, Pinterest, FaceBook page and has started posting YouTube videos. In order to help these along, and flog a few of the tees, which are being sold through my eBid shop we gave a couple of them to SistaWithRealHair who is one of the top YouTuber's on this subject with over 41,000 subscibers. Today she posted a video with the tees as a giveaway at about 5pm UK time. Within minutes I had visits for them and quickly sold 2. The wife also had extra hits on her blog, YouTube and FaceBook, all gaining additional subscribers and likes, and as we get more designs that means more potential customers. For the relatively small outlay, this could provide a strong long term stream of customers.

Both the sales today were to the USA.

If anybody wants the chance to win one of the tees there are two on her channel:
