Hi again.... Worst blogger ever award of 2013 goes to me! We had something really exciting happen in December and I didn't even blog about it. Maybe because it is so much easier to do a quick share on Facebook. Maybe because things got pretty crazy around here.. From the day before Thanksgiving (Nov 27th) until December 28th we had at Least one sale a day - Most days had 3-5 sales. There was one Sunday that we had 12 sales! 98% of those sales were for items that we make to order. So on top of our full time jobs things got crazy busy fun and there was no time for anything extra.
When we started 2013 I made one business goal. And it was to sell a certain dollar amount by the end of the year. I am VERY happy to say that we made the goal.... TIMES THREE!
One of my goals for our shop for 2014 is to blog at least 2 times a month. Since it's already the 17th of January.... I best be gettin' a move on with my 2 for January :)
So I'm going to go back and share our December excitment that helped get our name out there.
