Spotify?

I thought that was music, I googled it, and sure enough all I can find music, do you have a link for what you are asking about?

Should put this in the business forum here. May get more answers.

Maybe a few tunes from a tuning a scroll saw blade could be recorded and sold. Or some kind of mechanical music from a running scroll saw. RJF

Nothing like the sound of a FD-UR#5 ripping through 3/4" red oak!

I'm guessing he meant Shopify.. and good luck if you do.. It's doable.. as with any website.. however there is no traffic.. You bring your own traffic... If someone can't get sales on a place like Etsy, Ebay, Amazon etc etc etc... You most certainly won't be able to with a stand alone site like Shopify or Indiemade, Wix or any other stand alone site that isn't a venue.. Venues have a ton of traffic... yes... competitors too.. But a stand alone site is like being on a deserted island sending out SOS smoke signals.. LOL After a long time... and a lot of work though.. people do start seeing your smoke.. that could be 1-2 years or 10.. depending on how good your marketing skills are..

I believe Scott ( Iggy) site is through Shopify.. He has a good tactic going because he sells to a market of scroll sawers as well as finished products.. If you can get a good thing going and build backlines.. get people to view your site.. the more clicks that go to a site the more google sees it as a popular site and will start ranking it higher in searches...
