TIAS.com Merchant News for April 7, 2014 |
We're still promoting Easter sales in our twice-weekly sales newsletters!
Please continue to post press releases relating to Easter and Spring. In addition to the obvious actual Easter items, you could promote a deviled egg plate, Spring/floral patterns on china, advertising relating to Spring or Easter - use your imagination! All press releases will be considered, but please make sure the image is good, and relates to Easter or Spring if possible.

Our FaceBook "likes" are increasing!
Please be sure to use it to promote your site! You can post about new inventory, sales, special offers, or even a "history" lesson for customers about a particular item. It's easy to get started, just go to: https://www.facebook.com/TIASAntiques and post something. Please keep your posts to no more than one per day and include an image.

We're looking for stories relating to collecting!
We publish stores from our Newsletter readers and FB followers, but we'd sure welcome some of our dealer stories as well! Tell us how you got started collecting, and how that turned into becoming a dealer. How are you passing along your love of antiques and collectibles to your children and grandchildren?

Be sure not to use parens ( ) in the Store Category Group field of the Maintain Categories section. It will cause the display of the subcats within the categories to not display correctly.
