1:28:35

👨‍💻 Website 101 - An audit of twin2's website. We've been working on getting Corrie a new website 🕸 - and we got the barebones bits together - so we thought it'd be fun to audit an unfinished website on today's Baking it Down Podcast - Episode 163. The big takeaway is this: there are many website hosts + templates + themes + plugins. 💻 Find what wo…

162. Baking it Down - Tags vs Tips 1:06:56

22d ago1:06:56

1:06:56

🤑 Tags vs Tips - The bottom line is the bottom line. This week we cover a topic that can get some bakers into trouble - hiding in the bushes of their exes. Kidding - that was our mom, but the concept still applies when it comes to stalkin' our clients. The issue arises when we feel we're owed more than just the money we made for an order. As someon…

1:26:43

🤝 Mmmmmm - A meeting framework (that works). About two years ago, Corrie and I started meeting (well, 😭 she was kicking and screaming) each Monday for what later became known as the 📅 Monday Morning Marketing Meeting with the Miracles. The MMMMM for short. 😕 Meetings can feel pointless unless they, well, have a point. And that's where meeting frame…

1M ago1:06:19

1:06:19

💸 Price vs Value Prop - Value is relative(ly easy to manipulate). I was watching a YouTube video featuring a TedTalk where a salesman asks a member of the audience for their pen. He then asks how much the person bought the pen for. "Five dollars," the guy tells him. The salesman then asks if anyone in the audience wants to buy his newly acquired pe…

1:52:12

🥲 Excuse my Excuses - Don't cry unless you've tried (everything). This week's podcast is a deep dive into a post I made in the group earlier this week - the post regarding "woe is me" threads saying the cookie industry is done, pack it up kids, you don't gotta go home, but you can stay... in this kitchen. You see - that defeatist mentality ain't go…

🤦‍♀ Comfy Mistakes - Getting comfortable with uncomfy mistakes. We had a (very) abbreviated podcast today - thanks to the door guys. 🚪 But in the few minutes we did get to chit-chat, we wanted to touch on "uncomfortable mistakes." 😿 Being bad at something sucks. It's no fun making mistakes. In fact, it feels like bad business acumen to make mistake…

🎨 Hobby vs. Have To - And what Bob Ross has to say about it Okay okay - Corrie and I couldn't agree on the ✨definition✨ of "hobby baker" since most of us are technically a hobby baker - but in reality - I don't consider filing business taxes, updating your LLC yearly registration, and tappin' a lawyer to check for a trademark anything remotely clos…

🍰 Audit of a Cake Class and the lessons we're implementing. Corrie and my mom and sisters all met up on Sunday for a cake class - they had a blast, but they also got to be on the "student" side of a class for once (Corrie specifically).

1️⃣ The One Percenters As admins of a group of niche cottage home bakers, we get to see a lot of questions about getting sales - and even more people thinking they can compete on price to gain traction in the marketplace.

1:29:06

💃 The Pricing Dance When's the perfect time to introduce price into the "cookie conversation"? Is it message one, 👋 "Hello, my name is $68 dollars a dozen?" Or is it after 50 messages when you've spent days (maybe even a week?) mocking up, designing, ordering cutters, and checking gel colors you've got, only for the client to turn "tire kicker" and…

🪙 The Gold Ratio 🪙 I know some of you are screaming at your computer screen right now sayin' "IT'S GOLDEN RATIO!" But hold up, now ya hear!

💲 Asset Assumption 💲 "A$$uming makes a butt outta you and me" - words have been changed to protect the innocent, but the stance stands true. Assuming client expectations rather than communicating them steals your business a$$ets and leaves you with an empty bank account and an angry customer.

🗑 Tomorrow Me 🗑 My dad used to make us stay after church and help clean up the nursery rooms, classrooms - whatever needed cleaning. When he'd change out the wastebins, he'd throw in an extra liner.
