All the very best in your endeavors!!!
got to have some kind of web presence. Even a simple Webly page with photo, hours address, phone and email.
I travel a lot and it's sad how so many shop owners shoot themselves in the wallet by not haviing a specific webpage.
facebook, not so important

I'm a mod on a pacific northwest quilters fb group, if something similar is in your region, post often.
If they have a sales page, post ever couple of weeks to stay in the potential customers eye.
