august goals check-up + september goals
Hello, September! I've been waiting for you, counting down the days and flipping through my weather app to see when you'll bring gifts of crunchy leaves and cool breezes to us.
Let's see how I did for August's goals:
Product Development:
- Change shipping on website. check! {there was a major snafu with it - finally figured it out!}
Education:
- {finally} purchase Marketing for Creatives and start working through it check! {and LOVING it. highly recommend!}
- Research a fun educational opportunity with a business owner that I truly admire check! {probably won't happen this year, though. saving up for shows this holiday season!}
Marketing:
- 119 IG posts check!
- 6 blog posts {almost} check! just one post shy of 6.
- Brainstorm ways to make email newsletter better check! {lots of fun ideas floating around in my notebook that I hope to use soon - I'll "re-launch" the newsletter later in the fall.}
Wholesale:
- Pitch to 50 boutiques. check! And using a new Instagram strategy.
- Get into one new store. nope. Tried but that's ok! Keep moving forward.
