The end of an era for my brand It is day one of Poom’s Mother’s Day sale, and I’m packing orders right now. This will probably be one of the last times I pack your orders. Handwriting thank you notes to my first customers Sometimes it's really hard to pack the orders because I am a one person business, and I had so many other things in the business to take care of, other logistics. So sometimes packing orders felt really overwhelming, especially on the days where I would get hundreds of orders and I had to ship it out the next day. I have not taken, like, a real vacation in a very long time because I wanted to get out orders within, like, two business days at least. And look at my room. Like, this is how I lived my life for the last year. boxes everywhere in my room. My couch is unlivable because it’s all inventory. Like, I’m excited to move to, uh, the 3PL warehouse, but I’m also kind of sad.
