Hi!!! Thank you so much!! My condolences for your loss. He seemed to be a phenomenal husband, and I’m glad you were able to have that experience. I’m so thankful for my husband, he is such a blessing. I would love to see your work! Thank you so much for your support and being on this journey with me 💗
Thank you so much! Wow, your video has definitely encouraged me! Congratulations on your business! Your story is so amazing. I'm starting my business, am also Christian and just waiting on and trying to build up my funding. It's been hard waiting but God is in it, He gave me this plan so I'm just trusting Him to see it through and get it off the ground. To God be the glory 🙌🏿☀️🧡🌿
You’re welcome! Ahhh thank you so much, that truly means a lot. Completely understand exactly where you’re coming from. I would love to follow your journey and grow with you. Amen, you’re doing it right!!! When that funding comes through please document it, that alone is a testimony to Gods glory. Praying that God continues to lead, guide and inspire you throughout this process. You got this!!!💗💗💗
Love seeing the growth of your business! ✨💖congratulations and when you talked about that feeling in your heart after creating your bookmark it’s such a wholesome experience🥹thinking of doing something that brings you that feeling as a line of work & bringing income it’s amazing
Thank you so much!!! It really was such a wholesome experience, one that I’m forever grateful for. It’s all such a blessing! Thank you for watching and for your support!💗
I needed to see this. I've been a SAHM for 2.5 years (I've had 2 children back to back!) and I am working on my wax melt business. I have been so fearful of selling that I've been procrastinating the WHOLE 2.5 years! Because of the economy, my partner is feeling the financial strain so I've decided to apply to go back to work. Of course my heart keeps telling me no yet I've only given my products out to family and friends and I need to SELL! Long story short, this video (and all others) are encouraging. It's really as easy as they say; just start it (and start it scared!) I'm always worried about "being right" when I can be wrong AND learn on the way. Wishing your business continued growth and love. Praying I'll meet you on a similar path in the future! ❤
Thank you so much for watching!!! I’ve been there with the fear aspect of things , but I always combat it with 2 Timothy 1:7 ”For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.“ I definitely think that if you feel the call to start your business, that you should go for it! Thank you so much for tuning in and for your support. Praying that you take that next step 💗
Blessed beyond measure girl!!! You are inspiring me to start my own TH-cam channel!!! I would love to see a video about your TH-cam journey so far ❤ also the polymer clay bookmarks!? I never knew those were the OG bookmarks! So cool to see the journey of it all girl and I’m excited to see you continue growing 🥹
Please start one!!! For sure, I’ll plan to film one here soon🥰!! Girl YESSS! Hahaha the OG OG’s 😂 I still have a lot of them. Thank you so much Allie for your continued support, I really appreciate it. It encourages me to keep going 💗
Hi Ari! Love love love your videos ❤. I am a follow business owner, retired veteran, and a full time working mom. I sell gold plated jewelry, silky satin scarves, and vegan cashmere shawls. Would love to connect and be part of your community. Wish you all the best and more success this year ❤❤❤
I love all your videos. But this one right here really spoke to me. You had my kind going the whole time I was listening. You lit the fire that I really needed to get moving. I had a baby in May of 2022 and I haven't fully balance how to do my business, pick up the camera, and be a mom at the same time. That has been my biggest struggle for 2023. Some video suggestions if I may: can you go over the process of getting your items in stores? (Ex: writing a contract/consignment, inventory management, did they buy the products from you or do they get a commission when they sell the item,etc); your check out process; packing orders; when first starting out did you have a website or were you selling through instagram; how do you market your items on social media Love your energy. I'm sorry this is long but through the videos I feel you are a momprenuer bestie of mine LOL ❤
I know exactly what you mean and I’ve been there too! You got this! One thing that’s helped me is setting attainable goals. Once I accomplish even the smallest task, over time it’s really built up my overall confidence and made the drive I have so much stronger! 2024 is right around the corner, you can do it 💗🙏🏽 Thank you so much for tuning in to this video, your support, and the video suggestions!!!💗💗💗
It’s was the Giving GOD, JESUS and the HOLY GHOST all their props for me! I can tell you’re an anointed women of God! When we do Gods business he will do ours! Please post more about your journey. I’m new and I’m going to subscribe. Can you talk about and make a list of the books you read. Please and thank you I’m very proud of you.
Got to!!! Praise Him. Thank you so much, this truly means a lot. I definitely plan on sharing more! I’ve been debating on dabbling on the “booktube” part of things, so we’ll see! Thank you for your support 💗
So excited for you and I can’t wait to follow more of your journey. I have an author business Christian romance books and God has been teaching me a lot about business this year. I love your pop up vlogs and praying for a good 2024 for you and your family ❤
Getting a boutique to sell your items - how does that work? Does it eat into your profit margins more than selling on your own through a pop-up shop or Etsy? Genuinely curious, because I can imagine the boutique also wants to make a profit off of whatever is sold.
So when selling at a boutique on consignment, it is a collaborative arrangement where you provide your products to a boutique, and they sell them on your behalf. Unlike wholesale, where you sell goods upfront at a fixed price, consignment allows you to retain ownership until items are sold. Prices are often determined by mutual agreement between you and the boutique, typically based on a percentage split of the final sale. For example, my split is 70%, and the boutiques is 30% of the retail price of my items sold in their store. Opting for consignment with a boutique can be advantageous, as it enables exposure without the initial cost of wholesale. While the boutique takes a percentage, the potential increase in sales volume may outweigh the reduced margins. However, it's crucial to figure, and negotiate fair terms to ensure a mutually beneficial partnership! Selling on your own through pop-up shops or platforms like Etsy provides more control over pricing and margins. However, it demands a significant time investment in marketing, managing sales independently, and even the fees included in booth rentals at Pop-Ups and on Etsy. Ultimately, the choice depends on your priorities - whether you prioritize convenience and exposure with consignment or prefer control and autonomy in selling on your own. I do both, and it’s been great for my business 💗
