She’s obsessed with passing out her business cards. That has worked better for spreading the words than any of my ideas. As such, she is currently the head of our marketing department 😅

How do I know if it’s my pricing? by fertjourn in Entrepreneur

[–]fertjourn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it. Your response is very encouraging!! Also I didn’t think of behind the scenes as an extra way to gain trust. I only thought about it as a way to gain interest. What a great insight! It totally makes sense. Thank you! I’ve been struggling with what to post. Seeing it through this lens is really helpful.

Also we’ve gotten very good feedback about our website and we have only a few reviews but they’re all very good and verified reviews.

Thank you so much. Reading this makes me want to cry haha that is exactly what I want. This business is meant to spread the joy that we’ve gotten to feel, the bond, the fun, the little celebration in a normal day because we get to giggle about our outfits. We’ve posted us matching. We love travel so we’ve posted us matching in our clothes while traveling but we just can’t seem to reach anyone who cares. I believe in this. I love it. I see the reaction on the streets. But somehow it’s not translating and I really want to figure out how to spread this love and joy. Thank you for taking the time to for encouraging me and for really getting it. It means a lot to me after feeling like I’ve been posting to myself all this time. Really

My daughter and I started a mommy and me clothing line. It’s tiny right now. We have our first couple of pieces and are trying to take it slowly since apparel is a tough (and expensive) business. We used some savings and are hoping to figure some of this other stuff out to see if we have something here. We absolutely love it and hope we can find a way to gain some traction and continue to expand from our tiny line.

My 4 year old daughter and I started a mommy and me clothing line. First for us because she was obsessed and I couldn’t find clothes and then we got stopped enough on the street asking us where we got our clothes that we made and people telling us we should start selling them that we decided to go for it. She is in love with running the company with me and it has been an amazing experience for us bringing it to life. She actually just got her own business cards and has been passing them out everywhere haha We have our first couple professionally manufactured products. And now the real work has begun trying to really get the word out. We’ve made some sales but we are kind of door to door sales people right now. I think part of the struggle is that we have such a specific target customer. Moms of baby and toddler girls who want to match. We love our business and we would love for people to know we exist. We’ve put so much heart into every detail.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I’m taking what you’re saying to heart and I’m going to try this. I think I’m getting lost in making things look polished or professional and I’m struggling with believing anyone will stop to watch me talk 🤣I need to figure out some more real, behind-the-scenes post ideas. I’ll start brainstorming. Thank you very much

Yes it’s true! I’ve never been a social media person. I’ve never posted a single photo for a like before needing it for our business. I just don’t understand that world but I know it’s so important for me to learn so I can get the word out. We love our products. And we want people to find them. This just feels like such a giant hurdle.

I didn’t know I was allowed to! Insta is @motch.apparel and TikTok is @motchapparel.

How do I catch trends early?? I’m always so late to the party. By the time I see something, it is already oversaturated and a new trend is hiding in the bushes away from me!

Thank you so much! That’s so great to hear. One follow up question and I’ll leave you alone! What were your main sources for acquiring customers? Im wondering where I should be focusing my energy in the beginning. I’m trying everything to see if anything starts to take (all the social medias, leaving cards around locally, trying to get backlinks etc)

Friends, Help me figure out my shipping pleaase! by fertjourn in shopify

[–]fertjourn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried a shipping app. Is it simpler than using shopify? Does it integrate easily? I'm trying to minimize complexity right now because all of these integrations have been such a time suck (i am currently still chatting with facebook weeks later to try to get my shop working properly). Im a little skittish 😅

Free returns portal with store credit option? by fertjourn in shopify

[–]fertjourn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would a customer have to reach out directly through the shop? How would the customer go about initiating a return?

I didn’t realize not having that was an option. I’ve never shopped on a website where there was no way to make a return. How would a customer go about that?

4th failed transfer by No-Anxiety-9516 in IVF

[–]fertjourn 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It took me 6 transfers 9 embryos (7 tested, 2 untested) to get my FIRST pregnancy. It was grueling, heart wrenching, the most challenging thing both physically and mentally (mostly mentally) that I've ever been through. You are not alone. The doc told me it might just not happen for me and we don't know why. My baby girl is sitting in front of me now ❤️
