I think I've given out your website to at least two dozen people over the last three years. Most of them are strangers who stop me in the store to ask about my sling.

Find someone you can pay to sew the slings for you and continue to sell them, which would give you some profit on each sling but without the same time investment.<br /><br />5. Raise your prices. Would it be worth it to you to continue to sell a smaller number of slings if you made more money on each one?HeatherHHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076514651411417707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-22362742680621646912012-08-20T16:12:47.403-04:002012-08-20T16:12:47.403-04:00I didn't mean we all need a break from your sl...I didn't mean we all need a break from your slings! lol, I meant we all need a break every once in awhile and you deserve one, too. =pmelissa v.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14872177586401321895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-73846650366750721352012-08-20T16:10:51.912-04:002012-08-20T16:10:51.912-04:00You could also sell your fabric?
