How Exciting!!! Opening a storefront is a huge accomplishment!

Hi, watching from Beachwood, NJ

A dozen cupcakes ; I sell them for $24 and it’s hard as it is to sell them for that price 😩😩

Girl... we definitely gotta raise that price. With the cost of goods right now, you may not even be making your money back

Does it make sense to have a website even if I don’t ship? Another concern is the cottage food law. I wouldn’t be able to ship baked goods from NY

Yes! A website makes you more LEGIT but also gets more eyes on your business from people searching for baked goods in your area. Think about it as SEO for your business

This is great where is the template?

What do I do if I don't have email addresses for my contacts, but only phone numbers? Should I send a quick text with the info?

You can use sites like Wix or Square Space. Wix has pre-made templates making it super easy for business owners to plug in there info without having to worry about the coding and designing, etc.

What is the best way to send my contacts on my personal email to check out my work. I don’t have a website just IG and FB. Joining local FB groups has helped me get customers.

You'll wanna make sure you collecting emails every time you do an order. If you don't have a domain for your business then, I suggest creating a business email. From there you can send out an email to your contacts by BCC (blind cc'ing) them that way it doesn't look like a huge spam email.
