Morning Goals #1

OK so I'm back now. I have been neglecting my blog but that is going to change soon. Due to my tendency to just focus of the fun things in my business I have decided to start setting myself goals, and just to make it feel more official I am going to write them in my blog every day.

Thanks to some advice from a web designing friend I have been introduced to Joomla! which is a free Content Management System for building your own website. My wonderful husband Mike was kind enough to install this for me last night - the installation was way beyond anything I am capable of - so one of my weekly goals is already completed. yay!

Goals for this month:
1) Print up and put together a professional portfolio or catalog of my mice to show to shop owners
2) Design a brochure (also for shop presentations)
3) Make 8 new mice
4) Find a new place to advertise
5) redesign my Banner and Avatar for Etsy
6) get quote for studio refurbishment

1) Make 2 new mice.

3) Make contact again with the 2 consignment shops that have expressed and interest in my store.
4) Update receipts and account books
