Milkweed

Good Morning all,

The show this past weekend I did not do well. I was alittle disappointed. I did get more customers for my mailing list. I also made enough to get the necessary licenses and permits for my cookie business. So there was some positive in the weekend. I always try to find the positive in a bad situation. Because there usually is something good. I hope next weekends show is better though. You know maybe next year I will do my photography part time and the cookies full time and then the following year I can reverse it. Just to get the cookie business out there. I am still in thought processes for all of this. Everything is subject to change. But I do know that I will have both businesses and which one will be full time and which will be part time is to be determined. I just have to have a plan and stick with it and see how the year goes (2010) and take it from there. Any input would be great!

The photo is milkweed with its seeds bursting out of its pod.

Have a great day!

Hello Again!!!!

Helloooooo!!!! Sorry I have been gone so long. I have been busy and trying to reevaluate my business. Emotionally it has been a crazy few months. The last 3 shows were flops. Which of course would leave one feeling discouraged. I have been trying to stay optimistic but it has been difficult. I have decided to open a cookie/cupcake business next year providing I can get the necessary permits and licenses. The business will only be part time and I will attend a couple of local farmer's markets where I will sell the cookies and cupcakes and in the Fall I will have an marketing plan to sell them to various office complexes in my area for holiday gifts or for parties. I still believe my photography will do well it is just going to take longer than I had hoped. Where everyone loves a good cookie or cupcake and they should sell much faster and more of them. Which is why I am doing the cookie/cupcake business to supplement until the photography takes off. I actually thought of opening a bakery/photo gallery, but soon realized that my photography would suffer tremendously and that is not what I want. I do know that my photography is my #1 job and the cookies/cupcakes are #2. I love doing both, but photography more.
I have also been working on some new photo projects and I will also have some cookie/cupcake photos coming soon. I will try my hardest to stay in touch and keep you informed with my progress and I hope you all will give me your input.

I have made some changes to my website. Please check it out. www.CindiResslerPhotography.com.

Talk to you all soon

Have a Great Day!!!
