Small business talk. Handmade soap. Packing Etsy orders

[@terriejv26]

I feel like the hand written note is more personal and actually a sincere thank you verses the pretty cards. Not saying they aren’t nice, because they certainly are. I’ve done them too. Keep on posting videos, I just love them.

I love the idea of the paper bag! I at the shop have business cards that I print from a lightweight cardstock because I don't want to spend money for something people will throw out! The only thing I would do with the paper bag would get a sticker that says something like thanks for shopping small, a heart. Some stock stickers without the expense of personalized.

I am *so* happy that you were able to get into your favorite event! You were so lucky on it :) I print my own little thank you note cards for online orders. I don't get very many of them right now so I only use about 2-3 sheets of cardstock at a time and people seem to really love them. I change up the design on them from time to time so that it doesn't come across as boring to those that repeat orders with me and it doesn't cost a whole lot to me other than just a little bit of time. It's the small details that matter! I hope you continue to thrive!

I do love a hand written note, simple and to the point! Give yourself some grace, you have a brick and mortar, and an Etsy shop! New years resolution’s are just that, a resolution to try!😊

Awww thank you! I needed to hear that 💕

I add a note on my packing slip.

Oh, praise the Lord! So happy you got in the event. So many times life happens and it’s always a good feeling when things go well. ❤

I write a hand written note on the packing slip. I soap used to do the card, but it was insincere for me.

I get my box of Lard from Restaurant Depot. Try if they have any.

I admire you so much! But I cannot hear you or make out the audio sometimes in your videos. Can you get a good mic 🎤 please? We would love it and hear so much better

[@agirlagoat1193]

I’ll see what I can do about audio & video quality. Thank you 🙏 I’m not tech savvy and only use my phone to film 🫣

What does Etsy charge you to sell

[@agirlagoat1193]

There’s a .20 fee per listing every few months then it’s about 6.5% fee per transaction
