Update: I made new shirt designs. Putting a positive spin on a trying situation. Homeless aka nomadic now. Everything has happened at once. Makes it a little harder to get this business launched but I am ready!! I have a fundraiser going. Goal for today is $300 to launch the store.
My truck getting repossessed, that was a heart breaker. I couldn’t keep up with the payments when I lost my job and even though I was trying to catch up, they still took it. My belongings are still locked inside and I’ve been trying to make an appointment to retrieve them. We still have Chris’ truck thankfully, just need to fix his a/c.
I know as soon as I am able to put some $ behind the marketing, it will grow quickly. I’ve done this for other clients and succeeded, it’s time to do it for myself. I have multiple years of marketing experience and a creative brain. I am making this happen.
$300 would cover the cost of the print store, the POS system, and the 3 ads I want to run.
I’m grateful that I have people who have reached out and offered their spaces, spare rooms, couches, places to land softly for a little bit. 🙏 Trying to get back to Austin and rebuild there while the online store builds traction.
Our fundraiser is still going but I’ve been hesitant to push it because it makes me uncomfortable asking for help. I am trying to offer things in return.
We still haven’t secured a travel trailer and could really use a little community support at least until we are able to get the store launched 🙏
