Starting A Subscription Business
Hey there!
The Ultimate Sensory Box launch is getting closer!!!!
So much has gone on in the last couple of weeks, where to even start!
Well, I decided that I need to just GO FOR IT, starting a subscription business, I mean! I don’t feel that I have done a well enough job in my “prelaunch” and I could have done more, but I think I just need to get it out there and into people’s hands! I will continue to grow as I go.
The three things I have been focusing on the last two weeks are:
- Social Media and prelaunch runway
- Product Sourcing – BIG breakthroughs here!!!!!
- Box Design
Let’s get started!
Starting a Subscription Business
Grow Social Media Accounts
So I created an Instagram account for Ultimate Sensory Box, and I am deciding not to use it. Although I want the Ultimate Sensory Box to have a strong presence on social media platforms, it is going to be too difficult for me to grow two Instagram accounts simultaneously. With that said, I am just keeping @sparkling.in.primary as my sole Instagram account and will include the Ultimate Sensory Box as a large part of it. I continue to grow in Instagram account and gain ideal followers! I need to determine where my efforts are needed the most and put my time there!
I started a giveaway on Instagram @sparkling.in.primary and on my Facebook pages, Sparkling in Primary and Ultimate Sensory Box! You can enter as well! Like any of my pages, sign up using the link, and tag others! Instructions are on the posts!
Product Sourcing
BIGGEST WIN these last couple of weeks! Places that sell in bulk that work for my industry:
- Oriental Trading/Fun Express
- Joann Fabrics
- Michaels
- Scholastic
For the last couple of weeks, I have been pricing out items and searching for items for my winter box.
NEXT BIG OBSTACLE…how much do I order?
I have NO idea! This is an action item!
Box Design
My logo designer will create a box design for me as well! I tried, I know she will do much better than what I made! 🤣
Below is what I came up with!
Things to focus on for the next two weeks:
- Continue to grow social media accounts and find my ideal customer avatar. Keep at the pre-launch runway moving into my official launch! Work on my Ultimate Sensory Box facebook group!
- Create the mock box
- Photos of the mock box for my listings
- Finalize what is in my winter box
- Work on determining the number of boxes I may sell so I know how much to order
- Add a page to my website!
- Get to know the CrateJoy platform better and start my listing!
Lots to do in the next couple of weeks and I am getting closer to CRUNCH TIME! Stay tuned for another update. Signup using the button below to get on my VIP Ultimate Sensory Box launch list! You will be the FIRST to know about any launch updates!!
