If you would have said...

Update:

Yesterday was a good day!

We received a huge shipment of a key component for SassaB™ and they turned out beautifully!

If you would have told me 6 months ago that I would know what our Federal Guidelines are for SassaB and how to go about becoming compliant, I would have said, "No way could I understand that!" If you would have told me that I would learn how to be my own Sourcing Agent, I probably would have rolled my eyes. Um, yeah right. If you said, "Tracy, you are going to learn about Patent Laws, Trademarking, and Branding, I am sure I would have said, "That sounds way to complicated!"

See, I was naive. Here I had this wonderful idea for a totally unique product that the market has not seen yet and I thought it would just "happen" but noooooo, nothing is THAT easy, right?! However, I am so happy that I was basically forced to learn all of this myself because I have such a greater understanding of my company.

One thing I have been saying a lot, "I wish I had someone to hold my hand and walk me through this process of launching my product, it's so hard...confusing to understand." And yes, I wish some Entrepreneurial God would come down and show me the (easy!) way but until that happens, I am taking baby steps and learning what it takes to be a successful Entrepreneur all by myself. And that feels good.

  2. Hi Tracy, I am doing the same thing. I know it's been a while since we wrote to each other but I have been working everyday on my product and it isn't easy. Keep up the good work it will pay off for both of us. MI
