Personal Stores? What's that?

Contributor: PinkPedal PinkPedal
I would love to open a store for internet models/cam girls. I don't know how much money Ive wasted on items for work only for them to be total fail (but some were good for my personal life) I know lots of girls that would love a one stop shop for all there needs for work (toys, storage, lubes, cleaners, ect.)I would have loved for someone to tell me what would have been good to buy rather then guessing like most new girls do.

Hello all,
I am the new contact for the Personal Stores / Community Stores program. If you would like to have a store set up similar to "The Best of the Best" or "Kinky Kravings" (i.e. on EdenFantasys, tied in with your EF profile), email partners@edenfantasys.com.

Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Vanillafree!
There are two fully-functioning Personal Store programs here on EF, and you can be a part of either program or both programs if you want.

The first one was called Personal Stores, and is for onsite stores, like this one that Carrie Ann made for her profile: The Best of the Best

The second one is a newer program, called the Eden Personal Stores program, where you can make a store on another website or associate it with your blog, like this store: Kinktasia

I am the primary contact person for both of these programs, so if you would like to get a store or if you have any questions about these programs, let me know! Email partners@edenfantasys.com

-Own a unique domain for your store

-Own hosting space online for your store

These two factors confuse me. I have a blog on blogger, can I just buy that or transfer somehow. I don't want to start my page all over again on godaddy. The dotCOM I want is open that's pretty much all I understand. LOL I looked through all there FAQ's but that didn't break it down for me.

Hi TaylorVon,
Yes, you can transfer your blog's content from Blogger to Wordpress or another host. You wouldn't need to start from scratch.

The reason that Eden Personal Store operators need to have their own domain and hosting is because the store is located on the operator's web space. The Eden Personal Store has files that need to be uploaded to the host/server of a website.

If you have a Blogger blog, the only way you can add content to Blogger is through the Blogger interface. You open blogger.com, sign in, and add text, pictures, and widgets to your blog. But with Blogger, you can't access the host, so you can't upload the store files to your website's host.

If you own a unique domain, and you own the hosting space for the domain, you have access to the host. In this situation, you can upload files to your website's host and create a store.

If you have any other questions or would like further clarification, please email partners@edenfantasys.com.

I would love to start up a personal store that would include more travel friendly toys and toys/games that could be used with other couples. I am a swinger so all the products would be able to be sterilized so others can use them too, so toy cleaners and personal wipes would have to be there. It would include some kink(swings, bondage kits, blindfolds, and handcuffs)....cuz we are a bit on the dark side and some erotic literature talking about fantasies. It would be a fantasy/swinger store, for the very adventurous. Let me know what you think...

I'm thinking of a a couple ideas. What about something for just everyday couples who are looking for something that is not to crazy, but simple and has everything they would use. My wife and I are just really getting into all this stuff, and its time consuming looking for things that we liked. A store that was geared toward those couples would be cool.

I just submitted my idea for a store. Hope I get the approval!! I was thinking it would be beneficial to have a store for those of us that are a bit more mature, 30+ and is designed around a MILF theme? I would have how-to's, tips and tricks, products and advice for women like me who do not have their old 'perfect' body anymore (), single and married MILF areas, etc. Everything would descend from a conservative level to sexually open and liberated. Please give me some feedback and let me know what your opinion.

I've been wondering about "personal stores". This thread has answered a lot of those questions. I know I'm not ready to start a store yet, but I will definitely think about it for the future.

Hi carrie!
I loved reading your post. I've found I'm pretty good about changing peoples minds about products they've had bad first-time-experiences with. I think I could create a store for new coming toy users and unfortunate first time users. For example, a lot of guys have bad experiences with cock rings and I can usually point them to one that's more comfy to use or is more useful to their needs. Thanks for reading!

Thanks for the post Carrie Ann! I am definitely considering getting into the personal store "biz" but I still have to weigh the pros and cons. I wish they were more accessible too. I think that Eden should have some sort of tab or button on the front page that directs them to the Personal Store directory. It would help out sales A LOT for some of the stores. If they did that and promoted them more, I think that I would possibly be motivated more so to get into it. Then again, I totally understand that we have to promote our OWN business too. So I get why they don't offer that kind of exposure. I dunno, Im still up in the air about it, but I think it would definitely be a fun thing to try! Thanks again for the post

I'm trying to figure out how to make a personal store but I am so confused. I guess I'm just having a hard time understanding how to get it started. I have some great ideas for a store. :/

I think that's a great idea especially if you focus on quality toys for a lower cost. I am a college student myself and I know that luxury toys are out of the question for me for a long time.

How about a store based on non-human fetishes. (furry, human-animal roleplay, tentacle beasts, xenomorphs and the like.) There are many stores outside of eden for those tastes and we have some scattered products here and there but they are not too easy to find.

edit: emailing in idea.

I love this idea for personal stores!! I'm married with kids. I have been married for over 8 years So we have started using toys in the last 2 years spicing things up. So I could do like a couples toys continuing to explore new and different toys such as Vibrators, g-spotters, male masturbatory toys, cock rings and Even later adding furniture to the mix. Anything that will enhance a couples sex life.

They seem more like personal forums to me now.
