How To Sell Lots... Without Selling Out.

Last night I shared my experience of running an online business at a ‘Shopify meet up’ event and absolutely loved it. The nice people at Statement Agency got in touch and said they wanted to know how we cope in times of peak trading ( hint- we often don’t) and if we would share our insight with similar small businesses. I wasn't really sure if  I was an 'expert' in this but..well, we’ve had our fair share of absolute meltdowns and I definitely feel I’ve learnt, over the years, what’s right for us and what’s not. And that seemed to resonate. So here I’ve put together a quick guide on how I think you can sell lots without selling out. 

How To Eat Marshmallows

Sometimes our marshmallows confuse people. They’re marshmallows but they’re not pink and white. They’re the same price as a box of posh chocs but, well, they’re marshmallows. Can you even toast them? But what happens if you do and they fall off the stick…eeks! So what the heck is so special about them and why do we bother making them?

Let's support teachers as well as treat them...

Teaching is, quite honestly, one of the hardest yet undervalued and underfunded jobs in this country. I often stare bewilderedly at anyone who goes into teaching wondering what saintly star they fell from. Because if any of us occasionally think our jobs are hard- pffft- we know absolutely nothing. The only reason any of us have the opportunities we have- that I have the confidence and the skills to run my own business- is because we had really great teachers.
