The travelling wardrobe...

A story about a young girl who aspires to be really successful, travel the world and experience the best in fashion- just like any other young woman.
The catch, of course, is that she isn't born rich.
What's she going to do?
How will she live her dreams?
How far will she go?


The travelling wardrobe final from Veena Srinath

We just changed our Blog Title but not our url - and a near disaster has been averted!!



Err, this is a bit embarrassing because we sort of got ahead of ourselves and now we're stuck.
Not really, though, there's always a work-around...though not necessarily an elegant one :-/

Okay- when we first started off trying to set up a business it was supposed to be called BeluxedFashion.com and it was a totally different idea, but now we have changed our business idea and the name of our website is swapzaar.com

But since we already have this blog (we were trying to be proactive in building some web presence for beluxedfashion- bad idea I guess? )and we don't want to lose y'all, we tried to change the url of this very blog to swapzaar.blogpost.com but guess what? No deal.

Coz google doesn't redirect people from the old link to the new one, in fact when we did a google search after chaging the url for a few minutes the search result said- This blog has been removed :-O  whoops!
Even our followers wouldn't have been able to find us, apparently!!
Scary, huh?!

Thankfully better sense prevailed and we quickly switched back the url while just changing the Blog Title.
So please bear with us for all the prevalent clumsiness. We're learning :-)

Now, we also grabbed the swapzaar.blogpost.com url before some malicious person took it and decided to misuse it, but we can't duplicate content there so we're just sitting there asking people who land up there to come here instead.

We'll see if we can do something there later.
This is how it looks now- Not the Swapzaar Blog. Not a blog at all...






But we don't see any immediate solution, we don't have the content bandwidth to post different and amazing content on both these blogs, maybe we will- sometime in the future.

We'd love to hear from you, any ideas? How would you tackle this situation?

We'd also like to hear about:
How do you keep up with multiple blogs and keep the content fresh and unique?
What content curation methods work best for you?
How much original content do you manage to create?

Bye!

A little ad, a little glad...

Hello! This is a sort of record for ourselves, when we can afford real paid ads we might look back and say "look how quaint our first DIY ad was!" , or Not...
We might be a little embarrassed, actually.

But whatever,we are so proud, because here is our first ad going out in a print magazine...and we made it
all by ourselves, too! We just wanted to include you guys in our journey.

The magazine where it is appearing is a well read newsletter for marketing professionals and is run by a well known marketing consultant- Jessie Paul, of Paul Writer she's a Marketer par excellence, a friend/mentor of sorts, who has been encouraging us in many small ways!

So here is the ad!!




It's not much, but it's our FIRST ever ad- how cool is that?

Write to us and tell us if you like it, and if you have had experience working on your own startup's marketing and branding efforts!
