All About April

Hey Y'all 👋🏾 

 

How have you been?

This month was a fairly busy one for us starting with the 1st. We received our first BIG order and several orders after and by the 6th we were at our first popup of the month. This popup helped us meet our order goals before we even had our anniversary sale. We had a great experience.

On 4/12/25, HOPE turned 5yrs old. I wasn't expecting an ounce of love but this in fact is when everything changed. I've been pushing myself to get outside of my comfort zone with my business and I started with this sale.

Everyday, several times per day, on every platform we have, we promoted our anniversary sale and figured out what works for us with conversions. It really felt like people were Black Friday shopping and I couldn't be more grateful. This was the first sale that made me feel like things are finally coming together.

Another way we chose to go big, is by signing up to be a part time vendor in our local community, totaling 11 events. We did our first one 4/26/25 and it was a different yet great experience. Hopefully the next 10 continues to go smoothly. The next one is 5/24/25. Same time, same place. Check our community events tab to stay up to date.

At our first popup in March, we met some individuals who were interested in our candles and wax melts. On 4/13/25, we stocked our retail shelf for the first time and within a week our best selling wax melts (Strawberry Cheesecake) had sold out at the diner. 

Due to us being at another location, we have to keep candles on hand ALWAYS. That lead us to make two of our wax melt scents into an 8oz candle by popular demand and we're also planning to drop a new one soon for vacation vibes.

New products to be on the lookout for? Candles, wax melts, & something SOFT is joining our skincare collection.

I want to thank each of you from the bottom of my heart for being part of this journey the past 5yrs. You all are greatly appreciated and I pray we continue to grow & glow for another 5yrs. Time flew by, & we're definitely having fun.

Oh, I also think Care Bears is coming back but in a different way. We'll have a poll soon to vote on what I should call y'all.

Catch you in the next blog! If you're looking for us in person catch us 5/10/25 at our next popup. Visit the community events tab monthly for updates.

Talk soon!

Love,

H.O.P.E 💜
