Easiest way to actually label a product without remaking the label is to invest in a pricing gun. You can add up to 2 lines of print on pricing labels (sometimes using letters instead of numbers). Put that sticker on the bottom of the product. Problem solved. The numbers on the stickers can match the batch numbers on your sheets. Put the sheets in a binder and keep for safety purposes.

Numbers is the Mac version of Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets - and the reason it is autocorrecting you to just 0 when you do 00 is the formatting of the cell. For at the cell to text only and it shouldn’t continue to do that. It thinks you’re just writing a number and it simplifies it down for you. Hope this helps! Love your videos, so inspiring and so much great info!

[kajolgolchha]

It was a mind blowing content I'm really wondering how she's coming upon with brainstorming ideas everytime. Each and every time Im looking for read or for studying purpose the first YouTube content was yours sister I'm really grateful for your videos the time and effort you put on it. Literally I'm loving your channel ♥️

[natalierobinson]

It totally made sense my lovely you are a treasure!Thank you for sharing this super easy method 😊

[marquitalanise]

I love this! I keep track of mine but I also include it on the labels, which does make it time consuming and the constant editing. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get around that and YOUR VIDEO HELPED!!! Thank you & I love your channel!

[JadaRenee]

This is why I’m subscribed to you! You’re so intelligent and creative I learn so much from your channel ☺️❤️ thank you

I always put the batch number on all my labels at the bottom. It takes me 60 seconds to go in there and do that. However, I don't make a bunch of labels ahead of time because I use Online labels. I only print what I need for a batch. Mine look like this #0051622. The two zeros are mine then the date I made it. It's simple and works well. It also is easy for my customers if they have a question about a product. I can look quickly and know what they bought and answer any concerns.
I think keeping these batch sheets is important. Not just for your customers, but yourself. I saw an ingredient recall for something I'd purchased and was able to clarify I hadn't used the ingredient that was recalled, because mine was a different batch number than what the company recalled! I was happy!😊

T. I absolutely love watching your videos! I use this set up for my products. But, I never thought about batch numbers. Because of you, I make large batches of products. Making large batches has made my life so much easier and faster with packaging products. Thanks again for another Excellent video!

LibreCalc & LibreOffice are non-Microsoft operating programs. e.g., my computer does not have a Microsoft operating system therefore I'm not able to use a MS program like excel. I do use LibreCalc. Open system just means that these documents can also be read in other programs like excel, etc. BTW, just add a separate small batch label to the bottom or back of your container.

[blissfulsea]

So informative. Thank you for sharing so much about your process. I totally will be using your system to keep track of my products. 😊

[ceraphyte]

This is such a informative video... I never understood about batch number so clear before... You explained everything in sections. Thanks for clearing my all doubts...

[HHRescues]

I love your content I like your style. always have such great information on new things I never would’ve thought about. Very happy I found you on YouTube and very much enjoy following you.

[fayanisxm]

I love this video honestly. I have recently thought of starting to do this especially that I’m a new formulator and I constantly try to improve my formula and need to keep track. I make sure add it to my websites just like you do on ur Etsy ! Great job Tara!

On your coffee under eye cream video, you used montanov 68 MB as one of the ingredients, I was wondering if there is any other ingredient I could use instead of that because it’s sold out everywhere
