As a Momprenette it is hard for me to find “down time”. I feel like I am always working be it at my mom stuff or my work stuff. I look forward to the weekends these days as I have decided that I really deserve time off and have promised myself that I can do whatever I want for at least 3 hours a day while the girls are napping. And of course, because I am an overachiever, I try to do as much as possible in my 3 hours. I live in Los Angeles and the weather is usually gorgeous – as it is today. My roses are all blooming and I plan to soak up some sunshine and admire them in their full glory, perhaps prune a few and definitely cut some for the house. I have a girlfriend stopping over for a quick visit after lunch, then I am going to catch up on a few magazines like Real Simple and Martha Stewart, and hopefully doze off for a quick cat cap before the girls wake up. We have plans to meet some friends and their daughter at the park towards the end of the day for a playdate and early picnic. I know to a lot of people this sounds like a crazy way to spend my “free time”, and that if you were me you’d probably just take to your bed and relax, maybe catch up on some TV. Don’t get me wrong – I do that on some weekends too. I try to do my girlie upkeep during the week when the salons are empty and prefer to spend my weekends at home or at the park with friends and their kids. We all work so hard at life and business that we need to rest and rejuvenate in the ways that resonate with us personally. If you sit for a minute and feel what your body needs today it will come to you. Maybe you need to take a walk, take a yoga class, cook, read a good book, craft, sew, talk to a friend, cry, create, invent or just sit quietly. Whatever it is, do it. Take the time for yourself today – you deserve it.

Do you know how to set the right price for your product line? Lordy knows I sure didn’t when I first started my handbag line. But once I learned the correct way to do it, I never mispriced anything again! Now I want to share this method with you so you can be profitable and not wonder why you can’t pay yourself.
It took me years to figure out how to set the right price for my product line when I first started out, so I can imagine you might be in the same situation. If you are not sure if you are making any money, then there is a good chance you’re not pricing your products correctly.
Proper costing is the lifeline to your business and profitability. Taking into consideration and finding all the hidden costs, is the key. So many people forget little things that they add up and then BOOM, you are not making any money. Once you have the actual cost (cost of goods sold) then it is easy to figure out the wholesale and retail prices so you are always making money.
I’d love to share this formula with you. It totally saved my rear when I was in year 3….. Just thinking of all that lost money in the first 2 years…. I want to cry!
