time for my monthly annoying reflection accountability revenue humankind mrr post lol The good: - Hypersub subscribers are doing extremely well. Originally I thought that I would only have second time buyers but seems like there are a few first time buyers. - Baseline on months I'm not selling is slowly moving up - from $300, to $1000, to $1250 - Really enjoying collabing with my customers. People are telling me that they're going to order a few already for xmas! - Launched onchain testimonials, future of retention tooling The bad: - My office is packed with non-sellable inventory like empty vessels, wicks, etc. I need to clear it out soon. Inventory experimentation is taking up too much physical space - Still haven't reached out to retailers yet. But I feel like I need to revamp my full collection before reaching out because the candles don't feel display ready. But I do have a lead gen list alr. - Have not taken a full weekend off on 2 months lol

Looking towards the future: - My vision and my ambition need to be much bigger. I have this intuition that candles are not the end all be all after doing onchain testimonials. There is something much deeper here and I need to figure out what it is. - Scents need to be revamped to be more cohesive instead of contrasting scents. - I think I need to hone further into my discipline. The first 4-5 weeks of no break was pretty rough. But as long as I'm disciplined I've eased into the habit of working on weekends and honestly makes me treasure time with friends so much more. - Packaging will be the next big change and it has to be very beautiful, function, timeless, and more efficient to pack.
