    I finally made a small profit last year so I'm going to keep the jewelry business going.  Anyone interested in letting me sell my jewelry in your store/shop?  Consignment is great.  I just need to get some exposure.

    We ramped up our email marketing considerably beginning in October of 2021 and continued with an average of three per week through the end of December, 2021.  We also printed a seasonal catalog and mailed 6000 of them to Imagine's private direct mail list compiled over 30 years of being in business.  Our customers responded.

    Until people feel safe gathering together in places, our venue rentals have been few. However, we are open for House tours and paranormal investigations. We thank those people, because it's been the house tours and paranormal investigations that have helped us stay open. Happy New Year! Let's hope 2022 sees the end of Covid-19.

    Hey Karen, 

    I’ve seen your facebook posts and from that, it appears that you’re doing pretty well, but understand that in the day of covid, everything is harder.  Tell me what your schedule is.  I have people who come to my online classes and they may be interested when I’m away and can’t teach. I’ll put it out there to them.  

    OM Shanti

    We raised our prices yet supplies  cost a lot more and we didn’t make up for it but where able to secure enough capital to get to our next harvest season. Just want be able to hire anyone for seasonal maintenance that’s needed. Without infrastructure we will continue to struggle until we get that setup.  
    So after that we will be able to put people to work year round. Just going to take some years to do everything. That’s the life of being a farmer. And I’m not getting any younger!!

    I’m still optimistic even with all of these challenges. 
    Thanks to all who’s already buying local and encouraging others to support our small businesses. 

    Extremely difficult to survive since I was a new business in 2020!  Getting known as a new yoga studio & not in the normal flow of foot traffic, it's been expensive to advertise & then with little result.  BNI groups are just too expensive for me with unknown returns as well.  I greatly appreciate the customers who have discovered my yoga studio, but need a regular customer base in yoga & sound healing classes.  

    I've offered Kidz Yoga Camps for 2 summers, but No takers! That really surprised me! 

    I have frequent Events in addition to yoga & sound healing classes.  In addition to this, I have been able to teach kids at 1 Burlington school & at a few senior centers. I certainly am here to teach yoga to every age group.  

    Help get the word out for my business.  Tell them I hold in studio & Livestream classes too!  If everyone reading this were to sign up for a class, workshop or series, it would be an Awesome boost to my cash flow!  Namaste! 

    I need help with promotion and sales! Covid-19’s affects have slowed my in person exposure for my books so online promotion is paramount. Anyone who can help me with it would be appreciated.

    Thanks
