First Sale - InkDura

First Sale

 

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to make your first sale? It's a wild ride, let me tell you. The mix of excitement, nerves, and pure joy is enough to make your head spin. It's like a whirlwind of emotions all wrapped up in one crazy moment.

Anticipation Builds

As one waits for that first sale to come in, the anticipation builds. I’ve check my email every five minutes, hoping to see that notification pop up. It's like being back in High School waiting for a text from your crush - nerve-wracking and exhilarating all at the same time.

The Moment of Truth

And then, it happened, I got that notification - "You've made a sale!" The rush of emotions that followed were indescribable. It's like winning the lottery, but better because it's the result of our families hard work and dedication. 

Celebration Time

I didn’t know how to celebrate, but definitely wanted to. I did a little happy dance, and enjoyed the movement. We deserved this. This is a milestone worth celebrating, and no matter how big or small a sale may be it’s still a sale. 

Reality Sets In

But then reality set in. I realize that this is just the beginning. There will be more sales to make, more challenges to overcome, and more goals to achieve. It's a never-ending cycle of growth and learning. The ups and the downs finding the right balance to make everything work is a long road ahead. 

Gratitude and Motivation

Despite the ups and downs, one thing remains constant - gratitude. I’m grateful for every sale this week, the customers and the opportunities that have come. I’m grateful for my family, my husband who has helped make this dream a reality. My kids for supporting me knowing that my schedule was already hectic! Annee and David for bringing us the idea and giving the support and advice we needed. 

September 2024 I made the biggest decision to leave a job that I loved but was killing me slowly. However if I didn’t leave none of this would be possible. I have never felt better, I am enjoy this and loving every minute of this journey. 

So, if you've ever wondered what a first sale would be like, just know that it's a whirlwind of emotions. It's insane, it's exciting, and it's a moment you'll never forget. Embrace the journey, celebrate the milestones, and keep chasing your vision and goals. The best is yet to come!
