hi everyone!! ik that a lot of you guys found me through my "how to start your own small business" video, so i decided to follow it up with a "part 2" on how to actually grow/make sales for your shop :D i tried to include EVERYTHING i learned from my own small business journey, so i hope you can learn something new if you've been struggling to make sales for your shop :") also! hope u didn't miss me too much ;))
Tysm! This is so helpful and inspirational
I *DID* miss you!! You are very honest about the ups and downs of owning a small business. Please keep up the good work. Can't believe I missed this one. I love watching your videos.😆
I really love this idea and wanna be a part of this. I have a question , how do I reach out to you¿ via email or IG? I hope you’d reply to this. ❤❤
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on this. I love your packaging.
And then I found you through your part 2 😂
as a fellow small biz owner who’s really struggling with the algorithm punishing me and slow sales, this has really helped! Your advice is actually so good, really appreciate ur mindset and perspectives
im so glad i could help !! im wishing u and ur small business the BEST this new year >:)
The interesting thing about pricing is it reflects quality. If you underprice your stuff, people may not expect it to be a quality product. Raising prices a bit can increase sale volume.
yes!! it can seem counterintuitive but i have definitely noticed that people mirror back exactly how much you value your own work 🤍
I was at work when an order came in. My husband text me saying my daughter has helped me packed. I was surprised! But yeah like you said, I learn to let go, let my daughter learn to help me in my small online shop. 😊
loved hearing your mindset shifts. everything you've mentioned is so so true! it's funny because this year I finally put IG in the bench and literally wrote on my yearly plans - create/repurpose IG content LAST. thank you for sharing your wise words 🙋🏼♀
Thank you so much! Not just your valuable video, your energy make me feel more motivated and warmed 🥺, you’re so cuteee!! ✨🌸✨✨
wow thank you so much for sharing the mindset that you have. i just starting out my small business with my friend and havent launch anything since our plan went south and we have to start over. but now i get so many insights from you that makes me think that i can turn this into stories and put it on youtube! thank you so much and wish me luck!!
Chapter 2 was especially helpful because I have never been able to figure out if I should have a social media soley about the business, or soley myself. You helped me realize that a gray area is perfectly acceptable so ty!
I've watched this video three times, so much amazing advice! I've been running a small business for 4 years now and this taught me so much
Wow thank you for this video. I have stepped back from business because it was all too much to balance while homeschooling my two girls. These were all amazing tips. I really got in my own way ❤ I still have the dream lingering and plan to find a way to make it happen even if its slow and steady or takes me a few years ❤❤️ congratulations on your growth 💓
You're so sweet, I believe in you! I want to start my online shop but I'm so scared. Social media is my biggest struggle because I'm not super consistent, especially on Instagram. I'm starting with what I have and I'll do what I can. You encourage me with such informative content. Thank you so much ❤
Thank you for making this video! I stumbled onto this video hoping to make my own design buisness someday! Hopefully soon ;)! You made me more confident and i now realized that i shouldnt compare myself to others and that i shouldnt stop nor limit myself!
im planning up my small stationary business right now it'll be in launch possibly mid spring :) i'm really excited for it this was really helpful with no business experience or knowledge so thankyou so much for taking the time for beginners like me
Love your content. I felt as if you were talking to me. I want to start my own business and am still trying to find a way on how and where to start. Thank you so much. I feel much better now after hearing you. God bless you and your business. ❤
This is literally so informative and motivating for me! I can’t wait to have my own stickershop in the next 12 weeks ‘year’ 😊 thank you for this 💗
omg yes !!! I BELIEVE YOU WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN 🙌🏻🙌🏻
been waiting for a new video since your last one, thank you for this 🥰
This is really helpful especially appreciate your take on mindsets ❤
OMG i was literally visiting your channel like 20 minutes ago and you just posted! We all missed you !!! lysm i hope you business grows :)
OMG im so flattered we must be on the same wavelength ;)) and TYSMM
Thank you so much for such an insightful video! I love that you mentioned mindset as one of the ways to grow your business!
I really loved the mindset section, thank you so much!
sooo excited for this video! i actually found you from ur last small business video and i found ur insights super helpful! 🎈🎈🥰
omg YAY !!! i rlly hope this helps PLS KEEP ME POSTED
The 12-week year tip is brilliant. I'm going to give that a try. Thank you for the video and your stickers are super cute.
Your video's are so helpfull and relaxing to learn about starting a small business. Please upload more video's, i'm currently watching them all :)
The soothing vibes and calmness I receive in ur vids are limitless ❤
🙈🤍
Thank you so much for this video ! The last few months I been having this feeling that is time to close by shop and start something new. Thank you for sharing it really has helped me figure things out l. 😊
Hii even though I do beads watching you helps me get work done for my business even tho they’re not connected at all but it’s so inspiring and motivations thank you
I really appreciate you for posting this video Johanna! I loved all the tips especially the 12 week year thing. Thanks!
I just recently found your channel. Thank you so much for going into detail and sharing your personal experiences with your small business. I agree with you about posting on CZcams rather than on Instagram. For me personally it was harder to fight the algorithm there. So, this year I’ve chosen to focus my energies into making my CZcams channel workout. I don’t get too many views on my website but my small business on a whole is a work in progress. Thank you for the tips. I will try to implement them. Take care!😊
Thank you so much for such great and thoughtful advice! Your stickers are soooo so cute 🐣✨🤍
You’re videos are extremely inspiring. You should be so proud of yourself and you’re growth. You’ve honestly made me feel so motivated. Thank you
Have been contemplating about creating CZcams videos for ages now but have always felt “held back” intimidated to make the “perfect video” that my minds satisfied with. Always getting stuck because I create an overwhelming mindset for myself.
So thank you :) so much
Thank you so much for this video! I'm kind of nervous that no one will buy anything from me at all but I still want to try as im taking a creative way, Setting up everything is sooo tedious but fun!
You are so inspiring! I love everything!
ooookay! that motivates me to start a hobby that i want to turn into a business in the long run. thank you!
Thank you soo much for this video. I needed to hear this!
love that this video addresses a spiritual side (limiting beliefs, scarcity mindset etc.) to entrepreneurship - something that isnt talked about enough but is such a huge aspect!! x
yes!! i totally agree - learning about these things have made the biggest difference for me personally 🤍
I love this, this is such good advice
only half way in & I feel that this information is exactly what I need to get out of being stagnant in my small business!!Thank you!❤
yess! i'm so glad it was helpful for you !!
What a wonderful great video! THIS is what helps!! Thank you sooo muchhh
discovered ur channel and am feeling like a proud cmu alum hahaha keep on slaying... this is great advice and a cozy little corner of the internet you've created!
omg !!! i actually found you through your "create or be consumed" video (on my personal account) and when i saw that you graduated from cmu in the intro i was so shocked and sent your video to my friends here !! i love your videos as well :") it's so cool to see we're all so connected :0
I needed to hear this. Wow. Thank you. Been on the fence about starting my yt and this really hit home for me.
yess 🙌🏻 definitely go for it if it has been on your mind for a while !!!
love this motivation video from you! It really encourage me to proceed not just keep worrying
yes!! i am so so glad it was helpful for you! taking that initial leap can be scary, but you will feel SO much more confident as you learn from your own journey 🤍
luv it packing orders 💕🎀
finally you upload! i love all of your videos❤
yay tysm! there's more to come ;))
This was really encouraging, thank you! I opened an Etsy shop in November and it’s been doing well, but I’m not a big social media poster… CZcams is my favorite platform so maybe I should finally take the leap. I get nervous my videos won’t be aesthetic enough tho…
the aesthetic part definitely comes with experimenting and practice ;) i believe in you !!!
so many amazing tips, thanks! Love your products aswell :)
This is some really encouraging advice thank you!
I'm thinking about starting to post on social media and eventually starting a shop. I was originally planning to start on insta & tiktok, but now I've somewhat changed my mind. Either way, there's a lot more work I need to do b4 i start..
Thank you so much for this video!, the tips are very helpful and practical!
Hey Johanna! I love this video, super helpful, I love listening to you while working on my candles.
i am so glad to be part of your day
finally you upload! i love all of your videos
yayy tysm! hopefully more to come soon ;)
Can you show how you made your receipts for your customers? I love it and I want to learn how I can print it that way for every orders as well.
Very inspiring! Can't wait for more!
Love this! I kept putting off working on my CZcams channel. I really want to jump start this.❤
This video is amazing. Now I feel confident to get it started.
i am so glad !!! i believe in you >:)
WAKE UP YALLL THE QUEEN HAS POSTED 🤩🤩🤩
🙈👉🏻👈🏻
@@johannapark 😭😂😂
Thank you for sharing. You have a good outlook.
I'm having to unlearn that my sticker designs should be really detailed.... your stickers are very simple... but so incredibly adorable with their own unique personality, but still really cute and desirable.... so I found myself having to teach myself how to draw more simply.... and I'm learning that i absolutely adore more simple designs.... and it's really fun creating the more minimalistic things, while still trying to keep them looking like what they're supposed to look like.... a good practice activity is one line drawings! ....
also thank you SO MUCH for this video... I've been struggling to figure out how to organize my time, but thinking about myself as those three people helps a lot! like... i think now I'll schedule some times just for the technician, and other times for the other roles, that way i'm not struggling to do all roles at the same time!
Brilliant, thanks. Would be good if you have a vid on how to prepare your workspace and run your workstation setups. You seem very organized
Great advice, thank you so much x
Me too I wish.
Love your art by the way.
I literally like yr vlogs sooo much❤😊 plz upload moree and can you plz tell how do you make keychains?

@@johannapark the minute you posted I was like “let’s watch this 😄”
Loved this video, thanks for the valuable advice :) I especially love your editing. What mic do you use to record your videos?
Hi can you make a video on how you made your own website shop? Also loving your videos.
you are amazing thank you for sharing this video
I’m starting to get inspired to make a business as well, just with notebooks and digital. Could you also share the alexis course as well pleaaaase
Hi! Your videos really inspired me a lot. Can I ask you a few questions?
1. What equipment/supplies did you buy when you started?
2. What platform did you launch your first orders and how to promote?
hi! thank you so much! as for the answers to your questions...
(1) i started with my ipad/apple pencil, a printer (which i had at home), a sticker cutter, and sticker paper! i have the current supplies i'm using in my description as well :)
(2) i launched my shop using squarespace and had built an audience through instagram when first getting starting!
loveee this! could you share what you used to make your receipt paper?
Hi Joanna, I just subscribed because I noticed how much we think alike about business, creativity, and life. I currently have an Etsy shop, but I want to close it, start on Squarespace and CZcams. TYSM for being helpful to other artists, entrepreneurs and creators. BTW, do you mind sharing which keychain manufacturer you work with?
I have a small business I have been struggling because I don’t have any experience and I’m not even that old thank you for this really helpful video
yayy !! i'm so glad i could help :"D
Here I am 4months late but ima use this advice as I want to make a sticker business even though I don’t have the money to make them look as nice as yours glossy , I hope I can still make an effort ❤
could you make a video on the 12 weeks goal??
Thank you so much lovely 💖 Btw can you share how you track all of your business transactions like using gg spreadsheet or a tracking app? 🌷
I guess If Starbucks customers are willing to pay $7 for a cup of coffee, we should take that for example for anything else 😂🤷♀️😅☺️
sooo true 😤😌
Do you write out recipts and print them? I do want to start doing that but i dont know where to start. Im going to begin sales by the end of the year and i feel like this wou,d be a good addition😊
It’s so true perfectionism can kills. My product is very fragile so I always hesitate to let my mom package them or cut the care card. But the truth is she pack them pretty well😂😂😂
Where do you get your products manufactured? I’d like to start my own company too 😁
Not sure if anyone has asked already, but what do you use for the formatting of those receipt sheets? I love how clean they look!
heyy i was wondering what microphone you use? the audio is so crisp 🤩
the model of your shipping slip is magnificent, what is the Shopify application that you are using please
This is a great video! Thank you so much!
Can you leave the link of the course you took?
Your voice is so soothing, it made it easy to digest all of the information you gave! 🤍 Thank you for making the advice easy to follow and understand, you’ve give me more to think about with my little business 🥹🫶🏽
Hi!! Can you share who you use for your shipping? I really want to start a shop but I don’t know where to start with shipping and shipping labels. Also love your tiny receipts! Do you type those out yourself?
蛮有帮助的
could you link us to your favorite youtube you mentioned? I believe the name you mentioned was alexis! Thank you ❤
Do you make this vlogs with an iphone or what do you use? Btw I love listening your videos while I'm painting is very relaxing😊 great content!
tysm! and yess - i do record all of my clips with my iphone as of now ;)
How do you make your receipts ? I like the layout
