Honestly, your shorts videos get me through. I’m small and struggling. Had to take on a food service job to get the bills paid, because with small business there are lots of extra bills. Have been told to let my expensive hobby go but it’s more than a hobby to me. When I see these little snippets you upload they give me comfort, support, & hope. Thank you. ❤️

I totally relate to you. This "hobby" is expensive. I keep making things and I don't have a particular order to make them for...but I keep making them because that is also practice. I keep thinking of "If you build it, they will come" from the movie "Field of Dreams". or better yet, from "under the tuscan sun" they built train tracks between Vienna & Venice, they built the tracks before there was even a train that could make the trip. They built it because they knew the train would come. If you make, they will come! I really believe that! Like Jerika said, keep going and don't give up.

Yes! We just got our first $500 order 🎉🎉🎉 we made some tattoo balms and barbershop soaps and the barbershop loved them so much he placed a great big order now we are getting the order ready! It’s scary, exciting, fun all at the same time!

You are such a big inspiration. I’m going to try and a new adventure because you gave me the confidence and courage too. I started my soap collection. I did a melt and pour, it was ok I’m ready for the big girl walk lol. I also make primitive crafts. My name I gave me is ( Primitive 1822) I sold a few item before on FB but stopped. Now after seeing you I want to go full on. I’m older now 57 not a young girl anymore. My children are grown. I really want to open an online store. Thank you for inspiring me. You and your husband do an amazing job and such wonderful information. 🙏❤️

Congratulations! Your age doesn’t matter, you’re choosing to make the most of your years and that’s what counts the most. I might be doing something completely different when I’m 57. As long as what you choose to do with your time makes you happy ❤

I am currently at a cross roads right now with my soap business. After going thru the numbers for last year things do not look good. I love making soap and my. Ath products but I am not sure if it is worth me continuing down this path. Advice please.

You can dial down or dial up your business as you see fit. Maybe it’ll be good to dial down and come back at a later time. Give yourself time to breathe and re-assess. Just because you put something on pause doesn’t mean it’s over.

When Looking for your space did you just look for a commercial space and turn it into only where you make and package?
@JerikaZimmerman2 ай бұрын
This is a studio in my home that I live in. When looking for houses to purchase, I specifically looked for a space I can work in to make, package and ship my products.
