Whew. I'm finally having a moment to sit down and type this out. My mind has been swirling with everything that happened on Saturday.
I sat down to outline a post to write about. I thought I would talk about how amazed I was that there were over 30 people in line at 7:15 when I pulled into the parking lot. Or how over 150 people were in line before the doors even opened!
I wrote down some stats about the nearly 800 free gifts we gave away. Or how the coffee bar sold out of a few dozen cookies in under an hour. Or about all the smiles and good spirits everyone was in, despite having to wait in a long line to check out at one of the three registers we had open.
But as I wrote out these ideas, I thought, "These are what everyone saw." This is what we posted to our stores. People tagged us, and everyone was talking about all of those things.
I wanted to share things no one else saw.
Like the conversation I had with a woman who told me our face cleanser has been the ONLY THING that has helped her acne. It's given her confidence she hasn't had in years.
And another couple who told me her husband rubs the Miracle Muscles on his neck at bedtime, and it's nearly stopped his snoring. It's improved his sleep tenfold, but even more so, it's helped their marriage.
And yet another conversation I had with a young man who wanted to personally thank me for our tinctures. He's been making his own herbal tincture blend to help manage his anxiety and depression. It was hard to not get emotional as he told me about the struggles he has and how the tinctures have really helped him get through.
It's these conversations that no one saw. This is what keeps coming to my mind when I think about Saturday. It was flooded with people. I can hear the laughter, and see the smiles, and all the hugs and thank-yous and congratulations. I can remember them all. But what sticks out the most is the 1 on 1 time with a handful of people who are struggling, and our products... my products, the ones I make... are helping them.
That's what I wanted to share. Because after eight years, these stories never get old. They only encourage me to keep going. Keep learning. Keep improving. And keep finding ways to let more people know not just about us, but about herbal remedies.
We knew it would be a pretty exceptional day, and still I was unprepared for just how exceptional it would be. So from the bottom of my heart and from all of our team, thank you.
You mean the world to us.
