@followers We are preparing to fill out our first partner store. This is a beautiful bath and body store in Coos Bay Oregon.
I am specifically looking for things that would be a great fit in her shop including tea towels, pottery baskets, wash cloths, scrubbies, diffusers etc.
I am also looking for things like greeting cards, handmade gift bags, and other items for gift giving!
When people visit the retail partnerships that we have they're, generally speaking, searching for a gift. We should lean heavily into that. Handmade gift packaging, gift tags and greeting cards are great ways to land additional sales and put the finishing perfect touches on an order for one of our retail partners. ❤️

We're so glad you're here from the beginning! I thought I would take a moment to introduce myself and chat about things.
My name is Mary Plummer and I am the owner of Maine Micro Artisans and Bar Soap Co.
We have three retail locations within Maine and more opportunities present themselves daily. I have strong networking and marketing skills. My passion is organizing micro businesses to increase their sales & reach.
Let's talk about the royal we. 🤣When I say we, I am usually referring to myself and my husband. He's the quiet shy guy who doesn't like to be on camera. He's also a brilliant software engineer and developer. As the website evolves throughout 2024 you'll see his skills go to work for us. Check out the Maine Micro Artisans website. <3 www.mainemicroartisans.com You can also check out my soap website here www.handmesoap.com
Until now my focus has been on Maine makers. Now that we're thriving and I have a strong support team it's time to spread the love from coast to coast. We have supporters across the country and it's time they were included!
Let's talk about e-commerce. There are lots of folks who will consign your items and put them in an online shop. Where they will sit and sit and sit....
Maybe they'll show you website traffic, but can they show you a history of online sales? I sure can! My soap company has sold over $100,000 worth of soap, strictly online since it's launch in 2019.
In 2022-23 we held dozens of events across Maine that attracted thousands of visitors. We learned a lot about craft fairs and artisan markets. We're excited to offer these with a modern and unique twist. Wait until you see what we have up our sleeves. You're going to love this.
Over the course of the next few weeks you'll see the website transform. You'll be able to pay your membership fee, submit your information for promotions, like social media shout outs, submit articles for the magazine (more on this to come!) and much more.
