I have a “thing” for Essential Oils, so after making sure to ask my customers if they are allergic to any certain scent, I will make one of my favorite customer love DIY holiday gifts 🙂

Oh and my family…they love these also!

Easy Peasy Skin Toner:

Drop 10 drops of soothing pure Roman Chamomile Essential Oil in 2 cups water and put into one of these cool glass spray bottles!! Put a sticker on the bottom. Wrap awesomely. Box up. Ship. Done!

Essential Oil Dry Shampoo ( this seems to be a favorite!) …

With the softening and moisturizing properties of Lavender, Rosemary, and Peppermint, this blend really does keep hair looking and smelling awesomely clean!

2 drops Rosemary essential oil
2 drops Peppermint essential oil

I know we are all busy people! We say this to others and we hear it all the time. How many times do we say or hear “I will see you later”, or “I will call you later”?

Okay so I am going to be really honest here…..I used to pride myself in staying close to my long distance friends and extended family, you know? The people who mean the most to me. But the last few years I have really been remiss. Holiday time comes around so quickly and reminds me all to much about how I need to step it up.

Yes, I use my Send Out Cards account and send cards once in while to just to let those people know I am thinking of them. But this last year, again I have been remiss on that part also. Life gets in the way right? Well…I am vowing to not let it anymore!

Yes the cards are awesome……BUT the best way just sometimes is to reach out and call, or take the drive to go see them right! Hey even Skype is so much fun! I did this with my oldest daughter, husband, and their 6 kids who live 14 hours away. It was crazy and noisy most of the time, full of laughs, jokes, serious conversation, and yes some tears. It was WONDERFUL! ***BTW ….my photo used here is my youngest grandson looking up and making sure he can see the cool waterfalls***

All too often we get caught up on FB messaging, or texting, that we forget to pick up the phone and call, or get in the car to drive. Let’s just not let this happen anymore, are you with me here?

So let’s stop putting off those coffee dates with friends. Stop putting off those phone calls with family members and only waiting for special occasions to connect. Let’s reach out today okay?

Let me know your thoughts – I’d love to hear from you!

Show the Best Holiday Customer Love Ever!

The Holiday Spirit is upon us! Be ready to Show the Best Holiday Customer Love Ever! Here are some ideas…

Give your loyal and VIP customers your best deals on your best products! Create awesome things you will do just for them. Something like…include free shipping, gift wrap of her choice (if you are filling order from your inventory), or offer a really good BOGO. I get the best love from my customers when I do these things!

Be clear on your sale begin and end dates and times to make sure your customers get them in time for Christmas. Offer a gift certificate if a certain $ is spent. They will come running back to you quickly in January to redeem for sure! Encourage your customers to buy for more than one person on their list to save them lots of time and money.

For getting new customers try these:

Run a really cool contest on your Facebook page or host a Black Friday sale on any Friday. And if you are ambitious…hold one of those 12 Days of Christmas events! Give away a different little gift or offer a different amount of $ off every day.

What will you be doing? I bet you have some really cool ideas! I’d love to hear from you!
