My accounting software thinks I made a profit in December, because the hundreds of dollars I spent on beads and charms counts as assets, not expenses, until I actually make something with the beads in question, and income is revenue minus expenses, no consideration of assets. I actually am making a profit in January, though I'm still nowhere near bringing in as much money as I've spent. Big sale this morning! \o/

Do you think I'm hurting my sales by:
having unabashedly political items for sale (A-for-atheist earrings, leather queer Pride flag earrings, lotsa butterfly earrings with the note that butterflies symbolize transfolk, etc)

saying on the shop front page that part of the money is going to a charity customers may not like (Global Health Council, to treat neglected tropical diseases)

I like the hobbit tradition of giving presents on one's birthday. Mine's on the thirteenth. As I'll remind you whenever I go to bed on the twelfth (so circa 10pm EST), there will be a coupon for five percent off your purchase.
