How does one determine how to set up the shipping charges on a website? Do any of you have…[Read more]

Have you ever sat down to work on bookkeeping and your first though is “Oh no”?
Many of my clients Quickbooks are a MESS and there is no way for us to move forward until it gets cleaned up. Sometimes it never does. It is so daunting to go back and fix the past.
But what IF this didn’t have to be your story about your financial tracking? What…[Read more]

For anyone looking to start homebaking that has a private well for water, you will need to get your water tested for coliform. The state websites will take you in a big circle as far as who to contact, how to proceed, etc.
I finally got someone from the Department of Agriculture to send me a few links to certified labs, I emailed them, then…[Read more]Lana joined the group New York 4 years, 6 months ago

Hi, I am looking into shipping peanut brittle and found that shipping charges to be quite expensive (almost more than the product itself. lol) via USPS priority service. If you ship your product, what method do you use? do you like it? Any receommedations? Thank you.
I’ve shipped my fudge and I do use USPS flat rate boxes. I don’t do this as part of my business, since CA doesn’t allow shipping, so my experience is limited and I haven’t tried to optimize the process much. However, I think it’s probably the ideal solution for me since my fudge is heavy and is also a fairly high-value item. Your brittle is so…[Read more]

I really appreciate your response and the clarification. Thank you so much!!!
