My business is changing ✿ The beginning of a pivotal moment & using our printer, Small Business Vlog

[@Koolkiwiz]

You have been such an inspiration Catherine for me. My daughter (11 yr old now )and I love watching your vlogs. She learned digital illustrations after being inspired by your work. And she has got really good. So thank you for sharing your side of the story because you inspire so many people around the world. Wishing you success, health, and happiness in life, always ❤️🙏

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh my goodness 🥲🥲🥲🥹🎀 this is the most beautiful comment thank you so so much! This makes all the editing and dry eyeballs so so worth it 😂❤ hehehe thank you so much for all the love and support 🥹🌷

[@ambercarson9736]

My 9 year old daughter is an aspiring artist and I’ve also been thinking how much she would enjoy watching your vlogs!

[@mzzbevcreates]

This was so fun Catherine and Team Katnipp. So proud of you, I've been following you since the Fall of 2018 as you showed up on my newsfeed and reminded me so much of my close high school friend. I've been stuck ever since and have watched you grow by leaps and bounds. You always have such a good attitude, even through your ups and downs. I look forward to what the future holds for you and the gang. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow 🥹🥹🥹🌷 thank you so so much this really means the world! Thank you for watching and supporting the journey for so long 🥲🥹 you da best!

[@theknittingrev]

Every pivot you make is better than the last! Been here since the "two tiny studio" days and have loved watching you grow!

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh my goodness tysm ❤❤❤❤ I’m so excited to see what happens next 😮❤

[@quierodiaries]

Roland truly chose the BEST ambassador. I sell printed goods and now I'm considering getting one of their print and cut machines myself 🫣. You're such an inspiration, Catherine!

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh my goodness 🥹🥹🥹🎀 thank you so so much! Honestly we really love Ronnie it works so much nicer than our dreaded circuits 😂❤ I love that it prints and cuts all in one 🥲 what a lifesaver!

[@ChiliCatCreates]

(TW de*th) I just wanted to say... You are so inspiring, Catehrine. My father died in 2015, unfortunately, but at the time I also found your vlogs. I'd never watched vlog-style videos before and I still almost never comment - but I've bought from Katnipp multiple times at this point and I am weirdly feeling proud of how far you've come in this amount of time. Your vlogs gave me something to look forward to and made me think about my own creativity, which made me start drawing and practicing my watercolour skills seriously for the first time in my life. I cannot tell you how thankful I am for that. I lost a LOT in 2015, but have since finished my bachelor's degreee, am doing well recovering from burnout and yet I ams till here and get to see you make even more progress! Every single thing you make is a delight! I wish I could buy it ALL :')

[@dawnhueser3741]

I have been following you (silently) since before covid. I admire you for how you have developed your buisness and infact watching you add multiple Cricut's inspired me to grow my own cluster of Cricuts for my small business. I watched you demonstrate your drawings on Procreate with your Ipad and off I went and bought an Ipad pro and have been teaching myself to use it. You have been a great inspiration to me and continue to be so. This time on my journey to downsize my body. So after inspiring me in so many ways I just felt it was high time to give credit where credit is due. Thank and I look forward to many more years of watching you.

[@poocky100]

Great video great experience for you and your company 😊. Copenhagen is also the home of Kaj Pindal. Do you remember Sesame Street and the little old lady who lived in a shoe? He conceptualized it from start to finish among many other NFB animation here in canada. And he was my animation teacher! He told us intimate stories of Disneys 9 old men as he was close friends with them and Ub Iwerks. Anyhoo just thought it was a fun piece of information to share! Thanks again Catherine for the videos! 😊

[@MartaGee]

Wow you are such a NATURAL at talking to people at the table!!! The way you command a room and they are just all eyes on you listening. Its amazing. You are incredible! Such an inspiration! ❤

[@pequadcob2009]

So interesting that they wanted you to speak even though you all haven't had a ton of time using it and seeing how you like it after that time.

[@KatnippStudios]

I think it was mainly to talk about my small business journey and my next chapter rather than the printer itself ❤

[@ltm8166]

You spoke so well!! Roland have found a gem!

[@tammieh647]

Wow, your business have really come really far. I remember the first video I saw of you and you were such an inspiration and you’re still the inspiration. Can’t wait to see all the goodies you bring in 2024.

[@JasmijnVleugel]

You're so powerful and inspirational ❤😊 thank you for sharing your journey with us!

[@WaddleArt]

Being able to go and chat with other business owners must have been a great but adrenaline-rushing experience for sure! And discussing how you went from your bedroom to now a full-fledged and ever-expanding studio and who knows where else from here... it's simply wonderful! The printer absolutely has been and will be a tremendously wonderful investment for the business, and I am so eager for what's to come with the launch! Been eager for it ever since it was announced some numerous videos ago! :D

[@aqualiv7978]

I usually just watch your Disney vlogs and have just found this channel about your business. Love the bit where you say you would have been happy just getting minimum wage from doing what you love but it’s now way more successful! This is exactly how my business has gone 🥰 It’s so much more exciting when you work for yourself and doing something you love and are passionate about x

[@misswomble]

Amazing! Your such a great speaker! You really ruled the room! Very proud for you! Well done Katnipp!

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow 🥲🥲🥲🎀 thank you so so much!!!!❤

[@mrscuteas]

Congratulations Catherine, Dean and the Katnipp team, it is wonderful to see all your hard work is paying off 💞

[@KatnippStudios]

❤🥹🥹🥹🌷🌷🌷

[@CronkiteSwanhart]

It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on the craftsmen and quality inspection. My family and I have purchased 2 *luxdups* bags over the past three years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

[@serenac22]

I love that you guys are growing!! Also love that you are enjoying the color blue in your outfit!! ❤

[@BjorkL]

Say goodbye to seconds! 😆 20:13

[@49lucky]

Oh my goodness I'm just so proud of you and I've been along for the whole ride😅😅😅 just so exciting. One day I will get to meet you all and learn even more.

[@nancye7520]

Me too!

[@ambercarson9736]

Gosh you speak so well! I’m in awe 🥰 It’s so inspiring to watch your journey

[@snowblossomstudio]

A little bit jealous of Rollie. LOL I have been thinking of getting a large-format printer. But I have no room for it at the moment. But maybe next year.

[@lisabatchelor5659]

You should feel so proud of how Katnipp has grown and I'm excited to see how your business grows in the future with Ronnie . You spoke so well & I'm sure Roland will be sending you off to other places in the future . 😀🌺

[@KatnippStudios]

Hehehe oh thank you so so much 🥹🌷🌷🌷 I love the Roland team! ❤ so I feel very proud to have Ronnie the Roland! Hehe ❤

[@ClayDisarray]

You're such a great public speaker, Catherine - something that so many creatives *really* struggle with (myself included!) I can defo see you doing a TED talk one day on female empowerment in business! 😁🧡

[@HelenMcLean]

A huge congratulations to you Catherine & Dean. Well done, what an adventure! 👏

[@beachblythe]

It would be awesome if you made some Christmas pouches people could use to wrap gifts!

[@antzieisme]

Thank you so much for taking us with you! You are a great speaker, Catherine! ❤

[@heartsandcrafts9742]

You are such an amazing speaker Catherine! So confident and natural, in your element. And you have such an inspiring story to share. Go you! 🎉

[@nancye7520]

I would like that drawstring bag for throwing art supplies in when you’re going out to sketch & paint!

[@emmaway7]

I think those bags would make a great +$ giftbag option for purchases. Like maybe an option of a favorite character or print and then it is used to gift some collection of products in. I can see for Fall/Halloween something themed on the outside and then a bundle of the new releases or something like that in it.

[@JSAbbott]

CONGRATS! I've been following you since you were in that tiny one room in the other building. It is great to see how far you have come with all of your hard work and creativity.

[@nancye7520]

So great🎉 Catherine this was like getting a video inside a video 🎁 watching you at Roland. I’m inspired to look for a way to afford a large-format printer to print on-demand, and not pay a company to print quantities. Thank you!❤

[@viviennart]

We always cleaned the head of the printers at the end of every day.

[@Justin_W]

Just placed my first order! As a fellow small-business owner, I'm glad to help support in my own small way! Thanks for these great videos, they always inspire! I love your humility and joy! What a great team you have there!

[@druskie4h]

I came across your video to learn how to kiss cut on a cricket machine and I've following your journey ever since. I'm SOOOO proud of what you have achieved and will continue to do. You have always been an inspiration to me and sticker making. I hope that I can make it too. It's a breath of fresh air to see one of us make it

[@kerenvalentin7082]

You are definitely an inspiration to so many! We are so proud of you. You have done a fantastic job in building your business. I see you in the future as head and CEO of a big company with your own building, filled with so many employees. You have a wonderful future ahead of. Enjoy the journey. 🤗🤗

[@emiliemccauley5038]

I'm so proud of you and your team!! I've been following along since 2018 and you were the first artist that inspired me to have my own creative business one day! Your positivity and resiliency are so inspiring, and I can't wait to see where Katnipp continues to go 💖

[@ChantelleArts]

it's so satisfying seeing that printer cut out the stickers too!! 😍😍

[@Christina24life]

Look at you taking over the world. Congratulations, I’m so proud of you Katnipp

[@leajohnson6817]

its really nice being able to hear you speak at one of ur events , thanks for sharing those clips :) love to hear ur stories and perspectives , and super cool to see this speaker side of katnipp

[@imchristinac]

Random unrelated comment but you look so good in grey! That blazer was so nice ❤

[@RecruitingMaven]

One of my neighbors was a professional nature photographer and he always printed his pictures using Roland printers. They have wonderful printers! Congratulations (again) to you and Dean for all your accomplishments! Wishing you and the team much continued success!

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow! That is so cool! We seen the huge printers printing art prints and your right the colours are so good! You can opt for more colours like orange ect to suit your needs which I think is soo cool! 🥹🫶🥔

[@KatnippStudios]

lol no idea where the potato emoji came from 😂❤

[@Tegnekroken_Irén]

So happy for you, and impressed with your performance. Thank you for being such an inspiration.

[@chellec3551]

Love these vlogs. Can't wait to see what's next for you all 🩷

[@KOK-sc8ez]

Congratulations! Excited for the changes and new adventures ahead!! Do you have a link to the multi-mug press?

[@liyan00]

That's amazing! Congratulations! It's been really inspiring watching your business grow and I hope it continues to do well in the future!

OMG! Its been soo long! You look so FABULOUS!!!!!! So happy the business is still doing well

[@angelagardener1234]

Loved it and well worth waiting for Catherine. You have come so far you have and believed in your vision just like me and never ever stop dreaming. I used to get into to trouble for being a dreamer but it has paid off. Anything is possible if you believe you can. I still say they need to teach manifesting at school. 😄But also I'm thankful that I had a stepdad and aunty that filled my life with dreams and possibilities plus encouragement. 😊 I'm looking forward to the next chapter too. Keep shining bright 😊

[@ycquanx]

I love your vlogs!! I get so excited to see a new one on ny subscriptions 🥰 I wanted to mention something, i know you make your dtf in house which is fab for your business however there is a lot of concerns of the powders used to cure the films as the powder can become easily airborne and breathed in. If not already i recommend getting respiratory masks, gloves etc for handling the powder elements and ensure you have some sort of air filtration system in place. ❤ I dont want to scare anyone but just to make people aware 💖 Love you! ❤❤❤

[@Phianett]

I have been following Katnipp for years, and even though I know your story I was utterly enthralled hearing you speak about the growth of your business. You were so professional and engaging, all eyes were on you and they were genuinely absorbing your words. I was so proud, smiling and leaning into my screen as if I were sitting at the table with you. I often mention what an inspiration you are and you continue to prove it true. You and Dean and the rest of the Katnipp fam are truly amazing.

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow thank you hehehe 🥲🥲🥲🎀🎀🌷 I felt quite relaxed after all the introductions thankfully hehee I also realised if I’m talking about katnipp I get a lot more relaxed and passionate since I love katnipp so much 😂❤

[@hilaryleslie]

You sounded SO confident speaking in front of all the Roland guests and staff! I know you said imposter syndrome kicked in hard but you are honestly killing it! Watching your journey is still so inspirational and fun for me each week and you deserve all of this success!

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow thank you so much 🥲🥲🥲🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@autumnsartstudio]

Yep. Dean's gonna marry Ronnie with how dedicated he is to the maintenance lol

[@Justin_W]

Copenhagen is a beautiful city! I especially love the old part, and the best-in-world pastry and pølse (hot dogs)!

[@AwkwardPasta004]

Seeing you in Copenhagen is so nice, my fiancé lives there (he’s Danish and Im American) and that city just feels like home

[@budgetmerch]

Great talk... well, what we saw of it. 🙂 Onwards and upwards... 👍

[@ainurjangutinova8101]

I'm so very proud of you. It is so cool to witness something like that. Watched your previous video about you growing throughout the years made me so proud like I paticipated in it😂😂 Though I've been following you only for about a year, I feel like I understand the difficulties you go sometimes go through😅. I don't know why. Anyway, I like your work, your videos make me inspired❤❤❤

[@MISSLEONAJB]

Hey Catherine 🤗 you have done amazing - I’m so glad you had that opportunity, so well deserved 😊 xx

[@emmadenson6582]

So happy for you & so proud of you. You’re amazing, I love your vlogs I’ve been watching along since 2018 😊xx

[@KatnippStudios]

Wow thank you so much 🥹🌷

[@breannapitacreatureartist]

Your printer is so cool! I feel inspired to save up for one when I get more flow ☺️ I wonder if in the gaps between some of the the big stickers if you could sprinkle in some default tiny sticker designs like little flowers or mini logo stickers or tiny ducks. I like the idea of you selling the scraps too ☺️ I have a sawgrass and the ink prices here in Aus are quite expensive as our exchange rate isn’t the greatest, but the sublimation paper isn’t too bad, it can be pricey to print and send mugs here too so when I stuff up a few mugs I feel it! 😅

[@BjorkL]

You're such a great speaker! 😊 16:18

[@cs-hw8hv]

Hello Catherine, I subscribed to your channel not to long ago and I absolutely love it! It's so cheerful, yet productive. It's wonderful to see your business continuing to grow, many wishes to you 😊; we're cheering you on.

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh wow thank you so so much 🥹🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@bemilie2841]

You mentioned Imposter Syndrome while you were giving that speech. Well, you shouldn't feel this way. You were not even trying to sale anything or teach any method. You were just sharing your own experience. You can't be an imposter when it comes to that unless you're lying or exaggerating things. Your experience is an inspiration for others. Even though their experience will never be 100% the same, hearing about multiple other people experience, help you think through your own, avoid some mistakes, try new things, etc. So, thank you for that. Thank you for the time that you give us in order to share all of this with us ❤🙌

[@Craft00980]

Love your videos. Thank you for beeing you. You are my inspiration ❤. You make my day. ❤😊

[@luna-bloom-designs]

After seeing the giant prints off the Roland printer, I would definitely love (and buy) the magical tulip girl in a larger size. Hope you’ll consider it.

[@NemoCat20Creations]

Congratulations!! So very cool to see how far you have come. 💖 Ronnie is amazing! Been here since 2020 and so looking forward to the new stuff and beyond! 😊😊

what model heatpress do you use these days? like the blue on in the background

[@serenac22]

Hi!! Love you guys!! Always eager for your videos to come out! Wanted to ask what brand is the blue quilted-like bag? You also have a pink one in other videos, is it the same brand?

[@ArtisticKatz]

Another great vlog, you and your team are doing great. Just one question, do you print your backing cards in house or out source them?

[@riannabateman299]

Catherine does your roland print on fabric? If so would you maybe considering offering a fabric printing service?

[@sean8563]

Wow. Ronnie is loud! You guys might want ear protection. Gorgeous prints and cuts though.

[@Whimsy_Pose]

So with you on the artwork. Stuff I think are good doesnt seem to be liked but things i think are very average and I'd rather remove from sight sell 🤷...not everything but I know I can't rely on my preferences to get sales

[@obiwann785]

That big printer looks so much less hassle than my fricking Cricut 🤣

[@viintji]

I swear my cricut will be the death of me 😂

[@obiwann785]

@@viintji Oh lord, me too. Maybe we can sue Cricut for funeral costs? 🤣

[@MySwatchOrama]

If the machine does a print and also cut how can you laminate stickers? It’s been difficult and overwhelming trying to find information on all the machines and options. My shop is not big so I will not be buying anything but it’s always fun to dream and investigate.

[@KatnippStudios]

You would probably have to laminate after I’m actually not sure we haven’t got to that stage yet hehehe 🤣🌸 we don’t quite need to laminate ours because it’s UV and cured making it naturally water resistant 🥹

[@SteadyResolve]

Great video, which model do you have? I was looking at purchasing Roland.

[@Mymysticmama]

You should find some local teenagers in the area and ask them if they want all the sticker sheet waste. I'm sure they'd be THIRLLED with it. And you know it would be going to good use.

[@DownToEarthwithKaty]

[@tiffr5016]

how many employees do you have? how many orders do you make in a day?

stickers look lovely but just a note the background noise from the machine, music and the talking over all that l actually muted most of the video, not sure if you could maybe try filming when the printer isn't running, sy to have a moan but l have loved watching your videos but find them a little annoying now with the noise.
