Shipping

2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.

I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.

Shipping

2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)

Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Shipping
1. Shipping integration

1. Shipping is integrated with Etsy, but not with Wix. I am currently looking into Shippo to process my shipments for my independent site. Shippo will allow me to integrate with Canada Post to get the best shipping cost, print labels, and even includes tracking, for an average cost of 0.10$ per shipment.
2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)

Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Shipping
1. Shipping integration
2. Packaging materials
1. Shipping is integrated with Etsy, but not with Wix. I am currently looking into Shippo to process my shipments for my independent site. Shippo will allow me to integrate with Canada Post to get the best shipping cost, print labels, and even includes tracking, for an average cost of 0.10$ per shipment.
2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)
Spend the energy, and time required to graduate.
Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Shipping

Shippo will allow me to integrate with Canada Post to get the best shipping cost, print labels, and even includes tracking, for an average cost of 0.10$ per shipment.
2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)
Spend the energy, and time required to graduate.
Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Shipping
1. Shipping integration
2. Packaging materials
1. Shipping is integrated with Etsy, but not with Wix. I am currently looking into Shippo to process my shipments for my independent site. Shippo will allow me to integrate with Canada Post to get the best shipping cost, print labels, and even includes tracking, for an average cost of 0.10$ per shipment.
2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!
Production

3. Branding
1. Create engaging posts; post photographs; keep customers up-to-date.
2. Learn how to cultivate an engaging feed; tag photos to reach largest audience; take bright, attractive photos/videos of products & production.
3. Cultivate strong branding so that people can immediately recognise Multiway products “in the wild”! Logo, look & feel, unique designs, etc.

VCC – Sewing Beg. Level 1
(Sept 25th – Nov 27th)
+ Potentially take an added on course for:
Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)
Spend the energy, and time required to graduate.
Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.
Business license
the money and a plumber to change the faucet.

Shippo will allow me to integrate with Canada Post to get the best shipping cost, print labels, and even includes tracking, for an average cost of 0.10$ per shipment.
2. I currently have about 200 shipping envelopes, but also require address labels for small national shipments, and paper for all packing slips and international/parcel shipments.
Cost – varies shipment to shipment!

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)

Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)

Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

Intro to Industrial Sewing Machines
Stay at Mom’s for cheaper rent. and comforts to stay on track. We will meal plan together n’ cut costs and time. This is located close enough to campus I can walk to class without needing to worry about time, or energy all too much. That saves on bus fare, or other transportation costs.
I will also need my phone bill paid up to keep in contact with my partner.
Gather some money. Go.
($393.81 for Beg. Lvl 1
$57.70 for the Intro to Ind. Machines)
Spend the energy, and time required to graduate.
Focus on the very basics to gain a stronger foundation and understanding of my entire product, and possible ways to progress with my trade/skill until the end of time.
Create 5-10 pre-sewn designs to capture the “look/feel” I want to convey with my hoods.
I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
Create social media accounts.
A phone, and internet connection.
Buy a better phone, as mine is older and completely unprofessional.
Changing faucets, ordering more blender containers. Having Business cards. Generator or solar panel is the biggest one.

I believe it will be important to do at least 3 hoods with different kinds of pinnae, mostly husks n’ tusks, that I will heavily advertise to build up my first set of online supporter.
Possible giveaway for 1 or 2 in the beginning to rapidly help in gaining followers.
I will need materials, and time to create these.
Once completed, I will absolutely require using a few models/photographers I know to help with portraits for marketing.
Do the fucking work.
