Well it's no secret that I've been swamped... lol
It's a good thing, but oh so overwhelming too!
I know I keep saying I am working on a new system, and it's almost done. I'm sure I will still have a few kinks to work out once I start it... but for now I thought I'd atleast share it with you. I figure I can't start it until I have everything caught up and current.
Here's my plan:
Sundays.... no work. Maybe some time on facebook and email to answer questions... but that's it.
Mondays.... print/write out (don't want to soley rely on technology-lol) all current PAID orders. Begin, in order, one at a time. Work until 3pm. Facebook/email time in the evening after dinner.
Tuesday... work on custom orders and ready to ship items. Work until 3.
Wednesday... package and ship. Update order list (note in fb so customers can see where their order stands) Update paypal with tracking info. Post new items in ready to ship. This will also be house cleaning day.
Thursday... print new orders. Work on them until 3.
Friday... finish orders. Work on ready to ship. Friday night FUN! A sale, game, etc.
Saturday.... package and ship. Update List, Paypal. House work, family time. <3
So there it is. I will be happy to answer any questions you have about this. I hope that by only printing out orders to work on, I can focus better on each order and start getting things out in a timely manner again. I'm so thankful to everyone who's stuck with me through these growing pains. It really is a learning experience for me, and I hope to iron out all the details and provide the best customer service possible!
Never hesitate to shoot me an email or message asking about orders. I am human, and learning, and I do miss thigns, forget things, ya know? But I'm always honest, and never mind chatting with you :) Infact, that is why I prefer fb over etsy.
