November Theme: Holiday Survival Guide

Thursday, November 1, 2012 by Jessika Hepburn

Oh My! Holiday Survival Guide, oh my handmade november theme

Happy November & hooray for a new OMHG theme! This time of year can be crazy for small business owners, especially those who sell tangible products! There are a bazillion things to prep, orders to ship (and long lines to stand in), not to mention cranky or demanding holiday customers. Many of us have our own holiday celebrations or vacations to plan + gifts to buy or make. Some of us end up feeling let down when all our prep work leads to few holiday sales or end up totally overwhelmed by a sudden rush. Lots of us are parents and feel an added pressure to make magical memories for our wee folks (mini-mouse advent calendars anyone?) while juggling all our other hats. For service or digital based businesses & blogs we are getting ready for a January rush since the holidays are our slow season-comments drop to nothing and the interwebs are all abustle with Christmasness. No matter what stage of the spectrum you are at this month we’re here to help us all survive (and thrive!) during this season of busy. From practical biz tips to festive shortcuts and tutorials, we are sharing our cumulative wintery wisdom, all wrapped up with a bow for extra beauty.

oh my holiday survival guide

Come join us! Do you have any holiday survival tips to share or question you want answered? Share your ideas and need-to-knows in the comments and I’ll do my best to include & answer them over the next few weeks. Also be sure to visit us today for our first #OMHG chat of the month from 1-2EST, we’re kicking off our theme with a giant brainstorm of holiday survival tips!
