Hi there,
On
this week's podcast episode, Delaney shared that
she sold "at least" $2,000 of products every week at a farmers market last summer.
$1k sales days are a goal that cottage food entrepreneurs often strive for. But even if they achieve one, they are usually not consistent. The first time I came across a consistent $1k day was back in
Episode 35, and
it's still very rare for me to see.
And certainly, some entrepreneurs make more than $1k or $2k at a single event. Just
last episode, Maci shared that she sold probably over $5k of sales in a single day. (But it nearly killed her, LOL :)
And plenty of entrepreneurs who use a commercial kitchen achieve consistent $2k sales days. I'm not counting those. :)
I actually do think
one other sourdough baker, Chelsa from Episode 88, achieved consistent $2k sales days before she slowed down her business, but we didn't really talk about pricing or sales figures in her episode.
Like Chelsa, Delaney
hit these sales numbers within her first year in business. But unlike Chelsa, Delaney built her business while caring for her newborn baby, and prepped her products in only 3 work days per week!
And she says that she started her business by "accident", and that
she never thought it would be a big thing.
So how did she do it? Give the episode a listen to find out.
