On Saturday I was at west Bridgford with
I was having a great day and certain items sold out. Which is a first for me at a market!
When asked, I said it was probably down to the weather, it was sunny, it felt spring like and everyone was enjoying the day.
What I didn’t say was that actually my products are good!
The proof was that I had repeat customers come and see me as well as new customers who loved how they looked and bought them.
One lady bought nearly all my shampoo bars in one particular scent, she’s been before and did the same, she also orders from me.
Another lady came and bought soaps that she’d bought previously, she loves them and came back for more.
Another customer overheard a lady say how lovely my hand lotion was and promptly picked one up to buy before even trying it first.
So why do we not blow our own trumpet? As small businesses it’s hard, most of us have imposter syndrome and we are so critical of our own products.
Well this should stop! The fact that we have repeat customers should tell us that we’re doing something right.
I know we all have up and down markets but we should also celebrate ourselves and what we are capable of!
This market on Saturday was one of my best at West Bridgford and I am eternally grateful to everyone who trusts me and my products. I love what I do!
