Hoping to Grow

Well, Every Last Scrap will be 6 months old in just a couple of weeks.  We have met a ton of great new people, and it's definitely been educational.  We are thankful for all of you who allow us to make the mistakes and learn the lessons of a new business owner!   As most of you know, it's a family affair - me, Mom, and Brooke are the only "employees" - but as we've journeyed through, a few lovely ladies have joined our little scrapping family (you know who you are!) 

The economy makes it challenging, and we are certainly working hard to stay in business.  Please give us your feedback and ideas on ways we can encourage our scrapping community to shop with us, instead of the big box stores.  Those darn 40% off coupons are hard to compete with!  :-)

A few things we plan to do after the first of the year:

Introduce monthly contests - we know we have talented customers and we want you to have the chance to show off!
Friends & Family discounts - we'll be providing our customers with little coupon cards to give to those scrappy friends and family who have yet to visit us.  When they come in for the first time and give us your name, you'll both get a discount!
Monthly Raffles - Details forthcoming, so watch our Facebook/Emails, but the plan is to assemble great gift baskets (worth at least $100) and you'll be able to buy tickets for just $2...no limit to the number of tickets you can buy!

So, keep us in your prayers, shop with us, and watch for updates!
