Goals

While I'm currently spending my free time with new ideas for fun stationery, I had to take a moment to really think about what my goals are for this up and coming business.  In order to be successful, you have to have well thought out goals and a plan.  I really have never written a full business plan, but thought I would at least write down my mission and my current and five year goals.

Here is goes:

Mission:  To create elegant, tangible keepsakes for life's important moments such as birthdays, wedding, and births.

Current Year & 2013 Goals:

1. Create a full portfolio of 30 designs
2. Open up an Etsy Shop
3. Attend the Stationery Academy in 2013
4. Make $500/month in revenue by August 2012.

5 Year Goals:

1. Create and Launch a wedding invitation line
2. Have an e-commerce website and blog 
3. Sell my creations on other websites and look into retail outlets
4. Have winning designs for sale on Minted
5. Quit my day job

Some of these may be off, but at least I have strong intentions of making them happen.  When was the last time you sat down and wrote out your goals and dreams?  It's often hard to be honest with yourself, but I truly believe anything can happen if you believe in yourself and make a plan to achieve!

Happy Monday!
