Struggling to promote my small online shop — anyone tried group-based marketing?

Hey everyone,
I run a small online shop selling handmade accessories. I've been trying to grow it for the past year, but marketing has been my biggest headache. I’ve tried Instagram ads, a bit of SEO, and even hired a freelancer once, but the results were close to nothing. I feel like I’m missing something bigger — maybe some kind of community effort or task-based group promotion? I can’t afford a full marketing agency, but I’m open to new ideas or platforms that offer more collaborative approaches. Have any small business owners here found success working with online communities or coordinated teams?

Thanks for reading!

Looking for ways to promote my music without relying on streaming platforms

I’ve been making electronic music for a while now, but I’m tired of uploading songs to Spotify and just hoping someone finds them. It feels like my tracks get buried instantly. I don’t have a huge budget for ads, and I’m not great at social media either. Is there any way to promote music organically in 2025? Maybe via music blogs or niche platforms? Just wondering what’s out there beyond the usual streaming route — I’d love to hear what’s worked for others, especially if you started from scratch like I did.
