Stock's on the way... Date Night and Dadventure Ideas for you... š„ šŖ š² šØ
Wow, what a week!
We arrived home from holidays last Thursday, launched our TWO new products on Friday, and had over $4,000 in sales within 24 hours! So firstly, I just want to say THANK YOU!
Sometimes it still feels very surreal that this business is actually up and running.
I worked behind the scenes for 6 months before launching the Dadventure Diary.
It was a daunting experience to launch a brand new product that no one had ever heard of before, to a few hundred followers on social mediaā¦ it could have been a major flop!
But do you know what happened!?
We sold out in just 3 weeks! WOW! If that isnāt a confidence boost then I donāt know what is.
It was an incredible feeling to have people line up for the Dadventure Diary, and gave me so much confidence and motivation to create the Date Night Diary and Grand Adventures Diary. And obviously theyāve been a hit with you guys already!
(If you havenāt seen them yet, you can find them here:Ā https://dadcertified.store/)
So, thank you! Thanks for following along my startup journey, thanks for your orders and thanks for reading my emails!
You make the entrepreneurās path a whole lot more enjoyable. š
Stock Update:
As you know, I ordered a portion of the Date Night Diaries and Grand Adventures Diaries EXPRESS so they would be made and arrive in time for Christmas.
There was no guarantee that the rest, the bulk of the order, would arrive in time but I HAD to make sure I had some here for you guys, my most loyal customers!
So, I paid and absorbed the additional fee to get that portion here in time, and given the response we had to the Pre-Order launch last week, I know this was the right move.
So, if youāve Pre-Ordered a Date Night Diary or Grand Adventures Diary, youāre one of the lucky ones!
While we still have some available for guaranteed pre-Christmas delivery, Iāve got a few pieces of good newsā¦
Firstly, weāre enlisted Amazon to begin stocking and shipping our products.
Amazon are known for their efficient systems and speedy delivery and they now stock and ship for third parties like us! They also now have the largest warehouse in Australia, a 4-story warehouse in Sydney!
This means better service and faster, more reliable delivery for our customers. š
Weāll also have our product available to purchase on Amazon.com.au and Amazon.com as stock arrives in the coming weeks. Weāll let you know when itās up. š
That leads to rest of the good news:
- TheĀ Dadventure DiariesĀ are arriving at the Amazon warehouse today (18thĀ Nov) and will be shipping out next week!
- Date Night DiariesĀ are also expected to arrive next week, and the
- Grand Adventure DiariesĀ are expected to arrive in two weeks time!
- All going well, the bulk of the stock will follow in early-mid December. Hooray! š
Iāll keep you posted on our stock as it rolls in. Please be warned: once weāve got stock, weāll be turning up our advertising. While we donāt plan or intend to sell out this time around, I wouldnāt want you to miss out if we do...
So, if youād like to order one to give to a loved one this Christmas (or for yourself), now is the time!
Date Night for the week:
Now that weāre back from holidays and slowwwwly getting our kidsā sleep back on track, itās also time to get back into the rhythm of weekly Date Nights and Dadventures!
I canāt express enough how important it is to make these a regular habit, because my wife and my kids are the most important people in the world to me!
If Iām not investing in those relationships, then how will they know that?
So, hereās what Iām doing for my Date Night with Larissa, and my Dadventure with the boysā¦ feel free to use these this week for your family!
Date Night:Ā Itās a āStaying Inā week for us so I drew a card from theĀ Staying InĀ deck and weāre doing:
TheĀ Conversation StarterĀ from the Date Night Diary this week is: āTell me something in your life (past or present) that brings you immense joy. How often do you do this, and how can you do more of it during this season of parenting?ā
Dadventure:Ā Iām taking the boys to a local Wildlife Park/Farm which has animals, train rides around the farm and mazes! Larissa thought it sounded like so much fun that sheās skipping her weekly solo time to come along š
So to wrap upā¦
- HUGE thank you to everyone who ordered during our recent product launch!
- Stock is arriving in the next couple of weeks, in time for Christmasā¦ phew!
- Keep up with your Dadventures and Date Nights because your family are SO worth it!
Cheering you on, Jeremy š
