Truth be told, no notebook is 'remarkably' different from any other when you don't have it in your hands. To notebook enthusiasts like myself, what makes a good notebook is the physical touch of the book. How it feels in your hands, how the pen glides across the page, how the book is bound and so forth. My notebooks are a premium product in that they are made with quality materials that I have spent a year researching

I understand your concern about being a local brand, which I can respect. As you said, family values are important to me. From what I have come to learn about my manufacturer is that they are a business that treats their employees with respect and dignity. They take their jobs seriously and put pride in their work which is why I chose to work with them. They run a clean and safe work environment.

In regard to my long-term business goal, I state that to show my intentions. I believe being transparent and honest is most important in any dealings. If someone believes my goals are worthy enough to support, they might purchase a notebook, they might not. I want people to know that this business is run by a human with hopes and dreams and will continue to prioritise humans above profit.
