Starting a business, Week One

Let me tell you, it's sort of scary. What if no one likes my products? The things I made with my own hands, the things I put so much time and effort into. What if I don't sell anything?

Scary.

But also? Also it's exciting. Taking that leap, making mistakes. Learning, growing. I am really trying to do things the best way. Making sure my business cards are presentable, my graphics are eye-catching and professional. Trying to keep my ideas fresh and exciting and, well cute of course. I also have delved into the world of advertisement. Two popular mommy bloggers are now the newest ad space for Sweet Adeline Shop. Thanks Blair and Mandy! I have read that it takes up to three months to see revenue increases from advertising, so I know to be patient. It's all so fresh and new and I am so excited to be on this journey!

Coming later this week, pictures of my new products! Oh I am so pumped about these little pretties, hopefully you will like them too!

  1. I have discovered a lot of Etsy shops by giveaways they have sponsored on blogs I frequent. I think that would be a great way for you to reach new followers/customers.

    GL!

  2. Maybe I lack vision... but I would LOVE to see the clips ON some little girls. It would help me visualize. I know I always ordered off ETSY the stuff that had cute kid models :)

    You do nice work!
