Holy crap I am bored ALL THE TIME.
I need more customers.
How do I get people to buy their cakes from ME?
I still only do like 3 or 4 cake orders a week - if I'm LUCKY. I make cakes for the case all the time but I'm so tired of throwing stuff away.
Sad rora.

What about a website, panplets, magnets...
I think the best thing to do would be to have a community cork board in your shop, it doesn't have to be big.... but then print out some panplets and go around to local businesses and ask if you can put them on their counter.
Think, party supplies, takeaway stores, kindergardens, preschool places, primary schools, arts and crafts.... etc.
And in return you'll promote their business by taking one of their business cards and putting it on your cork board.
If you need a hand designing a website or panplets (i've got a feeling I'm spelling that incorrectly) lol, just ask...
but when it comes to your business most people are happy to support you if you ask, esp. if they are getting to promote their business in return.
Also... some primary schools produce a weekly newsletter, and you can promote your business in there for about $10... and they are your direct potentical clients.
remember ask and you'll receive

Hey thanks for the add! I am LOVING that cake! x
Tomorrow I shall embark on a very special work-related journey.
It's a big step, and it could make or break my career as a small-shop cake decorator.
As I have been commissioned...
... to make my very first penis cake.
Oh yeah.
Penis cake.
Special pictures shall come tomorrow.
(*giggle* I said "come").

I've spent most of last week dragging my fiance with me to my bakery and teaching him how to ice cakes, the differences between buttercream and non-dairy whipped topping, and how to pipe lovely borders, roses, and balloons.
He had his first day as a cake decorator at another one of our bakeries, hired by my desperate boss. (His pay is well below mine, but...

I am sincerely glad you two make each other happy.
Today I am 20.
I'll never be a teenager again.
I am slightly saddened.

Sounds like fun to me! Thanks for the add by the way.
brightredscream:
Do it! What do you have to lose?
I need some girlfriends who don't live 3 hours away.
I have no one to go shopping with, or to help me plan my wedding, or to just hang out with.
le sigh

Boo, that sucks
I wish I was closer..I'd do that stuff with you!
No one could even give you feedback if the woman liked the giraffe cake? That's crap!

I have not been very alive lately, just working and sleeping and trying to keep everything sane.
I'll probably be more active when Charles finds a job and things are a little less stressful.
In the meantime - I have not had very many cake orders at my store and that has me very depressed. I want to be doing something while I'm at work,...

Damn that sucks I'm sorry hon.... *hugs*
I'm sorry hon.... *hugs*I had two big projects in the last couple of days
Project # 1 -
One of my co-workers had a sister who was having a birthday party, from what I can gather this sister is severely mentally handicapped and is having a hard time lately. She's also apparently really obsessed with kittens. So I had to make a kitty cake.
How the crap was...
