People often ask me if there was ONE piece of advice that changed my business and helped me grow. And YES – there was. A friend in the fashion business turned me onto a special die cutter who could cut my handbags and that allowed me to expand from my dining room table to major manufacturing. Once I had that information, I reached out to larger stores and got my first order from Anthropologie!

I started my company on the first of January, 2010. Me web site was active on the first of April and so was my etsy account (EliJudy Enterprise.com. My husband, Eli is my greatest cheerleader and therefore the name. I have so much to learn about promoting
my business. The painting is a joy, but I want people to
be able to enjoy them as prints at reasonable prices.
That way if they get tired of one they can store the print and hang another.
Working on the photography one at the moment… hmmm…
Excellent suggestions from people who know from experience. The topics cover so many of the issues we all face as budding entrepreneurs or even as established ones. I particularly liked the activity or productivity by Lisa Meloche (#63). All very exciting, intimidating, stimulating, exhausting, and wonderful. Thank you one and all.

Another tip is managing your cash flow. I’ve had money come in and out of my account, which I thought I would remember it all but it definitely helps using a tool to manage the cash flow. I’ve been using Billing Boss (http://www.billingboss.com), which is a free web-based and mobile-based invoicing tool. I can easily track any payments coming in, and who owes me for what. Plus my accountant automatically access to all my invoices and account payable records. I don’t need to ever send her updates on a regular basis.
