Inconvenient Timing

After 6 months, we are starting to see more regular sales in our Etsy shop. It is great - the other week, each morning I checked my notifications and had an order nearly every day. And they have gone around the world, mainly the USA. Who would've thought that!

But I go on holiday next week, leaving 50% of Scissor Sistas behind to run the show. Which she is more than capable of doing but what if we sell out of something and need some more making? She is the leather guru, knitting maniac and in charge of supplies and posting. I only sew and do the Social Media. I tweet like a tweeting fool (apologies to our followers who sometimes think I am tweeting like I've had too much caffeine) and hope that I keep our items for sale visible.

Despite being real-life sisters, we are 80 miles apart and stock has had to be sent across the Pennines, to and fro, to cover holidays. We need to build up more stock, we need to extend our stock lines but cannot continue to have to sent it around to ensure we can meet potential orders. When she goes away in September, do I have to try and run the ribbon printer?

So I need to sew more duplicates. I need to stop drinking tea and do more sewing.

And go on holiday without worrying that it is an inconvenient time!
