We Wish You an Amazing Year,

Full of Laughter, Love, and Beautiful Wreaths!

The beginning of a new year brings such excitement and renewed energy as we start fresh! The Christmas decorations have been packed away and the special memories of our grandchildren unwrapping their presents have been tucked away in my heart to savor all year long!

I feel refreshed and ready to embrace all that 2015 has in store for my life and my business! You’ve probably noticed on Facebook, I’ve been posting a lot lately about the resolutions I’ve been thinking about for my business!

What’s on your list of goals for the new year? Do you want to grow your business and take it farther than it’s ever gone before? Are you just starting out and need someone to teach you the ropes of making high-quality wreaths you can sell online? Whatever is in your heart, my team and I are honored and excited to help you reach for the stars and achieve your goals this year!

 
This time of year, I always like to take time to look back over the past year to celebrate the highs and learn from the lows. I have some questions for you to really think through regarding your business! You can’t reach your full potential unless you know where you need to grow!

Look back over your sales during the Christmas season.

• What were your best sellers?
• What colors were most popular?
• Did your customers prefer wreaths in traditional colors like reds and greens, or did you sell many wreaths in more unique and modern styles?
• What were the best price ranges for your products?
•  Did you price too high or too low?

Here’s a big one to ponder – did you over order this past year or did you under order any products? Both have negative consequences so you don’t want to repeat that mistake again! If you under ordered on supplies, were you able to get more as needed from your supplier or were they already sold out?

As I am asking myself the same questions, I’m simultaneously creating my ordering list for Christmas 2015! Yes, this is the time of year to start thinking about ordering supplies for this brand new year!

In next week’s newsletter, look for tips from me on effectively organizing leftover Christmas supplies, so you don’t accidentally forget about them and the order too many. Yes, that happened to me this year!
