"In my first 81 days advertising with IndieMe, I picked up an incredible 8 new retail outlets! Investing in ad placement in their Buyer’s Guide, and keeping my name and product in front of buyers by using ongoing featured ads, along with taking good advice such as offering a start-up package is helping me reap the reward of maximizing just a few of the many marketing strategies that IndieMe offers artists in their goal to match with buyers and ramp up business."

"Kudos for all of your hard work. The artists that you have assembled are an exceptional group with high quality products. I love being part of the IndieMe family. I love the virtual expos. I actually think I buy more items than if I went to the show. I have more time to think about my purchases and not get distracted. You guys are awesome. Thank you for all your hard work during the year."

”We have been part of IndieMe for over 20 years, dating back to its early days as Wholesalecrafts.com. This platform has been instrumental in helping us build our business and master the art of selling handmade products crafted in America to discerning, educated, and quality-focused buyers. What stands out to me about IndieMe is the autonomy it provides—we maintain full control of our business while benefiting from the platform's many features designed to attract buyers nationwide. Additionally, the reliable, human support IndieMe offers for any service needs has been invaluable. Although we may never meet many of our long-time buyers in person, the platform allows us to establish meaningful rapport and build lasting relationships. IndieMe also provides affordable marketing tools and additional support to help us grow. Responding to requests from both exhibitors and buyers, IndieMe introduced twice-yearly online trade shows, which have become an essential part of our continued success. These online trade shows are a favorite among our buyers for their convenience and added perks. For us, they’re a fantastic opportunity to connect with new buyers while strengthening ties with our loyal, long-term customers."

"Since I first opened my gallery 13 years ago I have been looking at the artful things on the platform. Certainly some artists are coming and going, but some remain as devoted as I am. It is a reliable source for my gallery, as I always look for new and interesting artwork. That is the place to find it! Thanks to all the artists participating and thank you for all the work you do."

”In advertising, it is said that buyers need to be exposed to a product repeatedly before there are results. This can often be a costly investment for artists, which is why we love IndieMe's Featured Item option. It is such an economical way to get our images in front of qualified buyers.”

"I’ve been a member of IndieMe for over 10 years. It has been a pleasure! I get my orders in a clear format that’s easy to manage. I am thrilled to have such a wonderful tool to sell my work. 24/7 viewing coast to coast, easy communication between myself & my customer. Since becoming a member, IndieMe is all I need to fill my work schedule. No more trade shows. IndieMe has no hidden costs & is always ready to promote my product. I couldn’t be more satisfied with IndieMe. I would urge artists & craftsmen to give it a try... oh, my customers, the stores & galleries have expressed to me how easy it is to order... not to mention off hour viewing ... IndieMe is always open 24 hours a day... THANK YOU! Beth"

"IndieMe is a professional and pleasant organization to work with. I feel they are a part of my marketing team and would not hesitate to highly recommend them to an artist or craftsman looking to grow their business into a wholesale market."

"It's great shopping online--day or night--for art and fine craft that has been vetted by other gallery owners."

Buyer, Tammie

"I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks for all the work you have put into the Virtual Market. I helped organize a small venue of local potters and that was similar to herding cats so I can’t imagine trying to get all of us organized and meeting deadlines and submitting info on the scale you operate on. I was so pleased with all my orders and the new reaches for my work. It really brought a lot of enthusiasm and hope for my business. The fact that you have been so innovative in moving to a virtual show platform has thoroughly impressed me during these trying times when bright ideas are the only thing that keeps progress moving forward."

Artist Vicki Gill

"I discovered IndieMe many years ago when I was a naïve newbie to both the craft industry and online retailing. Back then, the shows were called the American Craft Retailers Expo (ACRE), and the site was WholesaleCrafts.com. I was overwhelmed and clueless, and because of my fear of failure, I didn’t place a single order at the first ACRE Las Vegas I attended. I persevered through my inexperience, and IndieMe became a vital resource in my journey from a hobby side business to a bonafide home and gift site with a seven-figure annual revenue. Handmade is not a trend for Jackie and her team. It’s their identity. IndieMe.com and the Virtual Expo are indispensable for makers and retailers with a passion for handmade."
