RESEARCH!

If you want to find out something - you have to do research! It's just that simple, you don't gain anything by sitting and waiting for something to happen. Since I decided to take control over my life and find the answer and solutions to creating my ideal business things have started happening! I subscribe to a women's magazine and just recieved the Oct issue. low and behold it has an article about creating your dream. This was one of the best articles I have ever read from a "how to" type of story. It gave actual steps that the women had taken to achieve their success. Needless to say I was impressed. *** I am working on an outline of my steps thus far and will be posting them soon.

Then, this morning I was checking my emails and read a post from a fb friend that I had just overlooked for the last few days. Kick myself now and hard! The message was about buying the best dog treats ever - it clicked in my head- hey silly you make dog treat jars!!!! Lightbulb moment! So I followed the link to a fb mall and read quickly on how to sell on fb. I'm so excited! I will need to download new pics of my items and get everything set back up - since my desktop hard drive crashed a few weeks ago. But this is exactly what I've been looking for. The days of paying to rent a space or table at an event and praying you get enough sales may soon be gone!!! Other than to do some advertising??? I will still hold my (at least this year) annual Santa's Helper Holiday Boutique the first weekend in December, but not having to haul, set up, take down and sit for a day or days to make a few bucks is an extremely awesome thought!

Well it's time to get some things done around the house. I should be able to finish up the clean up from the yard sale purging today and then move on to the next step of my journey.

So till the next time - remember, it's all in a day!
