Ladies I am so sorry I forgot to do this morning. I thought I was doing so well never mind here it is. Let me know your goals for this week.

@Clare Goodall asked me to cross post this. Hope it helps someone! Alice's tea party is chaos because nobody wrote down how to pour tea, where to sit, or what to do when the Hatter asks a riddle. Everyone improvises. Mess ensues. The moment you document it, everything changes. Your business scales. Your brain gets a day off. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) aren't bureaucracy—they're your business's DNA. When you don't document, every task gets done differently by different people. Errors multiply. Training takes forever. You become the bottleneck. The moment you document the process, three things happen: consistency improves, new people ramp 10x faster, and you can automate (because now the computer knows what you know). HINT 1: Do this task after everything you do this week to create an SOP. Or better yet screen record for an hour, then upload your video into Gemini (if you have the paid version, I think the free version only will look at 15 minutes at a time), and say analyze this video and then give it the build me steps in the prompt below.) PROMPT: Help me turn one recurring task into an SOP. Ask me these questions one at a time: - What is the task. - What do I currently do? (AKA my current process) Then build me: 1. Streamlined Steps (remove what doesn't matter) 2. Decision Points (where choices happen) 3. Automation Opportunities (where tech can take over) 4. One-Page SOP (the doc I give a new person) 5. Quick Win (what should I automate first?) What's ONE task you do every week that, if it were documented and delegated, would free up hours of your time? That's your first SOP target. When it's in your head, it's your problem. When it's on paper, it's your system. ✓

Hey lovely creators 👋 Before I build out the full Foundation section of our training space (it’s coming, I promise!), I want to take a moment to connect properly. The truth is, the best way for me to create resources that really help you is to understand exactly where you’re at right now. We’re all on this Etsy journey together, but we’re not all at the same stop on the line. 🚂 So I’d love for you to share a little about your story below: ✨ Where are you right now in your Etsy journey? (just starting, few listings, growing your shop, etc.) ✨ What’s one thing you feel you need most help with right now? (SEO, confidence, mockups, consistency, etc.) ✨ And what do you hope being part of this community will bring you? Your answers will not only help me shape the upcoming lessons and challenges, they’ll help you connect with others who get it. Here’s your little action step: 💡 Comment below with your 3 answers. 💡 Read one other member’s reply and leave an encouraging word. That’s how we start building real connections here. Because the moral of this space is simple: 👉 You don’t have to do this alone. We’re here to learn, share and grow together, one steady, confident step at a time.

I am definitely having a quiet day. Just chilling and doing Etsy stuff. What have you all been up to?

Made up my new shop listing graphics.. would love some thoughts. These are for digital wall art 8x10 size. **UPDATE: The shop has ungone some fine adjustments.
