This was encouraging! I'm at that state myself, just opened a shop, no sales, and it can be disheartening at times, seeing the growth is so painfully slow. It's good to know that slow is normal and consistency will bring about the desired effect over time... no quitting!

This is so true. I had total 2 of my Instagram followers buy from me but it took around 1-2 months of posting lifestyle photos to really influence them. That’s how I learned that we need to be consistent and keep on it!

I feel like product creation is my biggest struggle because I overthink everything and lose interest then next day energized and ready to go an so on.
It's draining

I felt so excited when you said systems!
I hate consistancy and I am the worst at it.

But...having a system and following through it...that sounds like a water in the Sahara! Life saving actions to be taken!
Also, i am excited at creating my own systems and tingering them to perfection. I thrive for efficiency in everything that I do. And it is hard to find those challenges in normal life, but in the work that you repeat...so many possibilities to improve and create genious systems! So exciting!

So SYSTEMS! Here I come! 😅

good info Deborah I started many businesses in the past. I think a big part of it is word of mouth once you get out of your friends and family circle

[angelamelville]

You are so motivating! I have been building my crafts and learning to use my cricut machine so that I learn the mistakes before hand and to see what I really enjoy doing. I recently had to leave my job as a social worker and thought it's now or never. It amazing what you can do when your back is against the wall. Thank you so much and I will be following you for sure.

Thank you so much for the hard-truths kick in the trousers! I'm totally that person who will post once every three months on Instagram and has very few systems, but groans at my sales numbers from month to month. I need to watch this video over and over ...
