It's hard to believe that tomorrow marks the beginning of May. Boy how time flies. In just a few short months we will be celebrating our one year anniversary. I can honestly say that this year has been such an exciting journey. It is amazing to see how the uncertainty we faced at this time last year has turned into such wonderful success and joy this year. Each day, I meet wonderful people who are so supportive and understand the importance of health. It is unbelievably refreshing to come in contact with people who share in my desire to live life differently. I am currently working on trying to reach out to our wonderful customers in order to keep them connected. We are starting a newsletter and a sales program so that you know when things are on sale. We have recognized that a percentage of our customer base has returned up North for the Summer months and we realize that we need to be creative in getting the word out to those who are left behind :) We are going to be starting a campaign asking our customers to be our best form of advertisement. So far, you already are! Each one, tell one. Would you consider doing us a huge favor and telling somebody about our store. Advertising can be extremely expensive and being a new store has a lot of expenses involved. We would much rather spend our dollars on bringing you more products at better prices!

Being a soloprenuer (solo entrepreneur - aka: doing a lot of this on my own) can be difficult and somewhat overwhelming at times. In all honesty, there are some days when I have a to-do list 50 items long and don't get any crossed off of my list (very frustrating)! There are also some days when I wish I had more skills to do things myself or more money to hire somebody else to do it for me (that would be nice :D). In the meantime, I will do the very best I can. Please bear with me as I try to figure everything out! I truly appreciate all of the many smiling faces that I see each week. I actually get excited when I see many of your faces coming through the door. I appreciate the time you spend visiting and the information that you share with me. Many of you are the reason I can leave feeling satisfied each evening; you remind me of the reason that I care so much for people. I wish each of you good health.
