015 – Zoharous




Etsy Conversations Podcast | Online Selling/Entrepreneur Interviews/Ecommerce/Arts & Crafts/Internet Marketing show

Summary: This week I reach a milestone of sorts, I interview my first international Etsy shop owner! Belinda is my guest this week and her Etsy shop is Zoharous; she lives in Accra, Ghana and I was thrilled to find out that she is a loyal listener to the podcast. In our conversation you'll learn how Belinda taught herself to sew out of boredom and has now turned her passion for fashion and sewing into a side business. We also talk about something I have wondered about for a long time regarding international sellers and PayPal. Hear how Belinda got creative in her business and figured out how to make lemonade from lemons ;) Aside from selling on Etsy, Belinda also runs an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) with a friend. I was completely intrigued by the good work they are doing and how they are helping children in Ghanaian secondary schools (i.e. high schools) get a hands-on education in science. When she's not working on her Etsy shop, you can also find Belinda writing on her blog; she's also on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin (login required), Pinterest, and Google Plus. To learn more about Belinda's NGO, you can check out this blog post and read more about the project (and see a video too) on Indiegogo too. PS: please take a minute to leave a review of the podcast in iTunes and/or Stitcher. That really helps to get the word out about the show :) Zoharous Treasury Strapless Asymmetric African...
