If I email coupons can you print them on your end? Between Canada Post and the British Post I don't know how long it would take to get to you by mail. Canada Post is really slow at times.

How many of something do you need?

The store address is http://www.wollhaus.com – just a coming soon sign right now. Lots going on underneath.

I'll send you a set of coupons cards via email, Lisa.

Cute hat! I think it feels odd to ask, but it isn't.

I'll put it in my newsletter on Thursday; to help you feel less odd, make it easy for me by giving me the web address for your store too.

This week, I published a cabled hat pattern – Trails and Streams on Ravelry – http://www.ravelry.com/projects/KathiS/trails-and-streams-hat. This is the first one with our store logo – I will now publish as Wollhaus now that the brick and motar store is active (website is coming)

It would be great if you could fave the pattern on Ravelry or…[Read more]

Numbers are perfect because they are measurable. Otherwise, my goal would be to write ALL THE PATTERNS and that is bound to fail. On the average, I want to publish 4 patterns a month. That is doable; there are months I get more done. Still, it is a bit of a stretch. Including today's pattern, I have 90 single patterns for sale on Ravelry now.…[Read more]

Yay for getting past the desolation!

Just curious, but why do you have a number goal? You seem quite prolific but have been asking a lot of yourself with book designs and new patterns.

So far, I had published only one pattern all month – and in the last two days, I upped the count to three! Still behind on my quarterly goal but it does not feel desolate anymore…

@lynn-hershberger It depends on whether you do priority mail or not. Sometimes things come within around a week & sometimes it takes 3-5 weeks.

That would be fabulous @ann-tudor! Thanks so much!!!!

@sarah-walworth, sounds like your business is on a good way! And don't forget to add in some nice things on the way – the end of the tunnel is there and you will reach it. But you don't have to hold your breath until you are there. Self-care is especially important when – well, all the time!

@jill-maldonado Sounds good!

Hey @nessa-jay thanks so much for your input! I just signed up to give it a try and you are right it is very easy to navigate and I found it all to be very intuitive and even easier than mailchimp.

I tried replicating a campaign I did recently in Mailchimp and it was very simple to do. I also edited the unsubscribe page to invite people to…[Read more]

Oh and to answer your question @alex-collins, I use mailchimp right now. So far mailerlite seems like mailchimp but with more functions and cleaner navigation. I might just make the jump very soon! Thanks for bringing it to my attention 😀

Bah, I couldn't do much testing. You have to complete your account information, verify a domain and submit it for verification before you are approved to use most of the features. BUT I did explore as much as possible. I'm definitely considering switching. I liked what I saw.

Generally, navigating the site is very easy and clean. The function of…[Read more]
