Getting through a long quarantine
Hi! Today marks the first day our state is opening up! Yay! Signs of progress… I hope it can continue. I hope this finds you healthy as well. My family luckily stayed safe and healthy, and that was good new for the bakery. With the mark of the quarantine, I saw an entire month of orders gone, scary! I know so many other small business owners can relate. Since we were all staying at home, what could I do to to provide a little quarantine fun? how about quarantine fun with DIY cookie kits?
Cookie kits shine
I posted on the local Mom’s network in an effort to breathe some life back into my business. Cookie kits had their day to shine. And the mini packs became a huge hit with all the local Girl Scout troops during virtual meetings as well as virtual birthday parties. The larger cookie kits come with 9 cookies, 3 icing colors and sprinkles. The mini kits come with 4 cookies and 3 cute mini icings and sprinkles. I really had fun with some of the themes! Of course, I did many Easter and spring kits at the beginning of April. But, then my customers got creative with their requests! I did thank you boxes for heath care workers, environmental workers, lots of fun socially distant birthday party boxes, graduation and “moving on” boxes. It really was a lot of fun to create all the fun varieties.
Thank you
I am so grateful for orders, so grateful for the joy it brought to so many, and mostly grateful for giving me a sense of purpose during this difficult time. I want to say thank you for all who supported me and my small business. Thank you to my fans for sharing my links and helping me allow. I wanted to share some of the fun photos I received from my many happy customers! These brought me joy in an otherwise difficult time!
