Hi there,
It's official: in-person sales are out of style these days. And online orders are more popular than ever. :)
Never before has it been more important to
have a strong online presence!That's why I'm hosting a
live online (and free) workshop next week about how to build a website for your cottage food business.
As you may know, I've been a web developer for over a decade, so I'm extra prepared to answer any questions you throw at me in the chatroom!
Already have a website? I hope you'll still get a lot out of it... I will be covering best-practices and techniques that you can use on your existing site.
And you'll also learn
why I didn't use Wordpress for my fudge business, even though I'm a Wordpress developer.
The workshop will be
next Wednesday, May 6th at 11am PT / 2pm ET. If you can't make that time*,
sign up anyway and I'll send you the replay when it's available.

new podcast episode with Sonia Chang, and it's fantastic for anyone interested in wholesaling their products.
Actually,
even if you don't want to wholesale, I think you'll get a lot out of it. I know I did!
Sonia's story is quite fascinating. She's
sold her granola in over two dozen locations, and shares many marketing strategies she used. I particularly liked her "leap frog" and "flavor profile" methods.
And listen in to learn why she bought and operated a successful cupcakery, even though
she never planned to sell cupcakes!Listen to Episode 7: Wholesale Strategies That Work with Sonia ChangDavid
* When I did the last workshop, some people wished it was in the evening, after work. The reason I'm keeping the same time is simple: that's when I can have the house to myself! Tara, baby Ray, and our two dogs would certainly add a more spontaneous (and stressful?) element to the live workshop. :)
