Journal Your Way to Success

Journaling is a method for keeping your thoughts and ideas organized.  I have a large collection of journals.  Most of them are empty.  I carry one with me for when an idea hits me or if I want to jot down an interesting website.  

Nearly all of my business plan was journaled before it was transformed into reality.  

Not only do I write in my journal, I read what I have written as a way to stay focused on the task.  Currently, my task is creating a viable sales site.

As of 2/1/2017, I am still not selling anything.

According to my journal, I need to create Steampunk Barbie Kits to sell with instructions on how to crochet the clothes.  I intend to include stockings, boots, gloves, materials to make a top hat, goggles, gears, ribbons, lace, charms and feathers.  

That is the top of my to-do list for the weekend:  Get a kit together and advertise it for sale

Creating a Featured Product on Shopify

Shopify will allow a featured product at the bottom of the home page.  (Go to your dashboard and click on your online store link.  Then click on Customize your Theme to add a Featured Product to your home page)

My Steampunk Barbie is a good choice because the entire outfit is for sale... the bustier, skirt, coat, top hat complete with gears, stockings, boots, and gloves.  The home page features the main image and the other images can be seen by clicking on the buy it now button.

My future is to create an entire kit that can be bought or individual items.  Keep watching for updates on the progress of this project, which will ultimately be a huge undertaking.
