It used to be that you’d frame the first dollar bill you earned in your store. Now that’s pretty hard to do for a web-based business, so we are commemorating our first dollar earned on our first day of business, October 6, 2009. A blog is better than a frame, no?
Our first sale was quite exciting because even though you send out a press release and email to allllll of your family and friends, that doesn’t mean someone will actually buy something.
But someone did!
She also got a home-brewed cappuccino when she picked up her order. Now, how's that for incentive?
That someone was K. Lynch-Leyton of Los Angeles, California, who bought bottle wraps and Joy Us holiday cards. She picked up her items, so we snapped a little photo cause we’re sort of excited and dorky that way. It’s true. We embrace our inner nerd.
Here’s a photo of our first customer on our first day!
Thanks again K. Lynch-Leyton!!!
