September State of the Union

Life is moving so fast.

Over a month ago was my last post here…what to say, what to say. August was a record low month for sales, and also the most expensive month to date. In preparation for the Whole Foods order (that still has not come), I’ve had to get my business ducks in a row which costs money, on top of a new web site design and backend upgrade. I know that August is usually a slow month for sales but it was really pitiful. Things should pick up again soon with the holiday season….

Last week I had to fly home for a family emergency. I’d rather keep that part private since it isn’t about me, but about other people. Suffice to say leaving Brooklyn for any amount of time puts me behind in work, but it’s alright. This week I will be vending at Henri Bendel’s for Fashion Night Out and I’m still in complete shock about this opportunity. Knowing how things usually go, I’m probably dreaming a little too far out there but who can say? Better to be optimistic than pessimistic I guess.

As always I have lots of ideas bumping around in my brain…two of my friends have left New York this week permanently and have left me at a bit of a loss in my support system. From this I began brainstorming on how to fill this void…and yes, make new friends but let’s face it, it gets harder to do so as you get older. I’ve been thinking about maybe creating a BK women entrepreneurs networking group but I need to work out the details on what I want it to do, exactly. In any case, if any of you out there would like to get this started with me, let me know.

Book reviews coming soon…
