The October magazine is live and we have some perfectly timed stories lined up for you! The holiday shopping season is now officially here which means that we’re all rushing to create more products and fill more orders. If you want to try and control the chaos, you’ll love Jenny’s story about selling her products in limited batches rather than accepting orders as they come in. Selling product collections not only put her back in control, but it increased her sales! And if you’re struggling to find buyers for your products, then check out Hara’s story! When she launched her business she received very little interest. But then she was able to find her target market and she’s sharing how she did it! And of course, we have lots of other great topics as well such as Tia’s story about throwing a launch party for her candle business!
