Buttons, Bumperstickers, Mugs, OH MY!
Wow, I'm pretty amazed at how well the buttons and bumper stickers are selling on my CafePress "ESC! Fun Stuff" page.
The phrase came from a phone conversation I had with my Dad shortly after the election in which he said "Cheer up, tomorrow is another day." And I replied, "Yeah, closer to the next election."
BAM! I had my slogan.
With a little guidance from my long time friend (and ESC! Contributor) Paul Tucker, I was able to come up with a design I was happy with and wanted to make a button out of. This was back in November.
Shortly after going online, I made my first sale November 17th. I was thrilled, of course, that someone actually wanted one of these, but what I found most fulfilling was that there were others who felt my sentiment resonated with them.
Since then I've sold a few buttons but mostly bumper stickers -- which is the biggest surprise to me. I guess folks want the largest audience possible to share their disgust with the way things turned out last November.
