On October 2 we put out a call for support to help us save our small business. We had 4761 products to sell in 30 days, it was ambitious, a little nutty and your response was overwhelming.
We put out a video to the world, and over 50,000 people watched it, with hundreds reaching out, sharing and shopping our products.
You have made this hard time in our business so much sweeter, by all of your outreach, messages of support, feedback about what you'd like to see more of, and voting with your dollars.
We're happy to report, that we have (almost) sold out! We sold over 4000 products, and got to 89% of our goal!
We hear you and now know that there is a strong community of others who want personal care and cleaning products that reduce toxins and plastics, just like us.
What's next?
We’re going to continue selling our products, and most won’t be coming back. If you love something in our line, now is the time to stock up.
In order for our business to operate, we have to make some big changes. We've closed our warehouse and minimized our operations to give us time to learn more from you about what would make your lives better. We'll be taking the holiday season off to regroup and formulate new products/bring back our top sellers. When we bring back a product, our email and social followers will be the first to know.
If you’ve been waiting for our refills, sign up for the “notify me” section on the product page so we know how many of you are waiting for it, and you’ll be the first to be notified when it’s back!
Thank you, thank you. We truly feel supported and can't wait to share what's next.
If you have any thoughts on what you'd like to see, please don't hesitate to reach out.
