I agree that taking great photos is better than rushing your press release. (Or that’s what I’m telling myself as I’m working on photos and holding up all sorts of things)

Wow- that blogging class sounds so interesting. I can’t wait to hear some more about it.

Great list for February- good luck!

Angie:

I came by your post through our thread on Etsy Greetings. I have to say, this goal post is very inspiring. I’ve been trying to get organized myself and there are so many things I want to get done! Perhaps a goal post of my own would be good, just so I see them up there every day. I have tons of list but those get lost here and there. Lots of luck with meeting up with a boutique owner. I’ve been trying to muster up the courage to go to some boutiques too but I’m trying to structure my lines a bit more too. Hope to see a successful February for you!

I love reading your goals and future plans each month, my interwebs sister! Our similar journeys and struggles do so much for my morale. You do put me to shame with NINE stationery lines… can’t wait to see them.

Glad the blogging class has been worth it and I hope Baking your Business is equally as satisfying. As I’ve mentioned, your 365 photography is fabulous. That pencil cup… LOVE!

Good luck with all your goals, Angie. I’ll be keeping tabs on your wholesale/boutique shop goal. Sounds like Candy and I will kick some tail next month if we don’t hear anything

I was wondering if I should take a blogging class. I’ll look into the blogging class you’re taking & see if there are any future classes available. Your goals sound great & with dedication & determination, you’ll be able to pull off each & every thing off your list. I love that you’re preparing yourself for each step you’re taking so I’m sure you’ll do great when meeting with the owner. Good luck this month! `=O)

How cool to take a class on blogging – looks like you’re already finding your voice here!

My advice when meeting a boutique owner: go when they aren’t busy, make sure your product will help their sales, and go on consignment if needed.

So excited by your February list! And I am going to need propping up on the Biz Plan thing too, so I’m right with you. AND I am so with Candy on the meeting with the boutique owner! Do it Do it Do it!

So glad to hear the class is working for you! I don’t have any advice for meeting with a boutique owner, but how about this – we’ll all kick your a$$ (figuratively speaking of course!) in the comments next month if you DON’T do it – so DO IT!

[of course, this is meant to be helpful, so if I've offended you, please ignore me!] [I do know that I powered through a couple of things last night just so I could mark them done on the post this morning, so the meetup accountability is helpful to me!]

Hi Angie, great goals there. I’m afraid I don’t have any advice about meeting with a boutique owner except ‘be yourself’ and just try to relax. I hope things go well for you.
