I so appreciate your help and transparency. Sometimes other bakers can be so illusive and ugly to new bakers unwilling to share any of the things that helped them become who they are without a push to sell you a class… I feel like they are only selling classes because monetarily it benefits them , not because they want to see others excel and grow. Thank you for all you do and share with us ❤️🎂💋

I am always happy to share what I can and I’m glad it’s helpful! And I think it’s a combination of things, yes to earn money from sharing their knowledge but also it’s the easiest way (outside of making free videos and blog posts) to provide (hopefully) more in depth information that is asked frequently. And sometimes that’s their way of making a living. I just did a video on selling classes too 🙈🤣😅

Social media can be very addictive. That's how it was designed. I understand where you're coming from. I've compared myself to others and seeing their success lead me on a downward spiral. Systems are key! No matter what type of business you have.

You should make an ASMR cake decorating video. I hope this doesn’t sound creepy but you have a soothing voice. And the parts in this video where you are opening packages and preparing meals was very ASMR.

Amen! This exactly what happened to me recently on IG. I even had a schedule of when I need to post and what to post. And I was trying to manage 3 accounts. And then I said…. Why? So I toned in down a bit. Then I was like….😂😂😂😂😂😂 I don’t even have that many followers. 😂😂😂😂 I need to focus and work on my tutorial on KZbin first. Amongst other things I have on the back burner, that needs to move up to the front. All for His glory. 🙏🏼🙌🏼 Thank you for always being an inspiration. 🤗❤️🙌🏼

I love seeing these behind the scenes. I love the vlogs! 💜 I also wanted to ask you, do you recommend going legit off the bat? I do everything under the table and I'm not sure when I should pull the plug and pay commissary kitchen fees (theyre gonna eat up all my profits) Other bakers in my area are hating and tryna shut me down bc im not legit cottage food licensed. :( Id love to hear your feedback on this!
@TheStationBakery2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! I’m happy to hear your feedback and I hope to be able to continue this style of content! Yes, definitely go the legit route, especially that now you’ve had some time to feel things out. I would hate for someone to report you and something happen. ☹️ as far as the rental eating up your profits, you avoid that by properly pricing your products which includes covering the cost of your rental space. That’s going to increase your prices, but that’s all apart of running a successful business. Your customers will adjust and you will gain new ones to replace those that choose to not grow with you. ❤️
