Usually a company adds a blog but since today is our first real day of business, I thought that our starting blog on day one is the only way to go. It is 2013 afterall.
I have started Parker's Barkery for several reasons and hope to share the experience daily with all of my readers. Here are my reasons for starting a home-based dog treat business:
1. My dog loves home baked dog bones and will do tricks like crazy for them. They are the best "trainers" I have ever tried. They work on old dogs too. My thinking is they simply taste better that store-bought. I try a bite of each batch and although I think they could use salt and sugar, they are very edible, kinda like a rice-cake. And since I know what is in them, I don't have to worry about product recalls and such. So I started making Parker's treats and then friends tried them and suggested I start to sell them online and at the farmers markets. And I agree.
2. I am looking for additional income and love to work in the kitchen.
3. As owner of HandmadeCatalog.com I decided to jump into the front lines, so to speak, and experience what our members go through trying to sell handmade goods online. I am hoping to find new techniques using new technology to bring online shoppers to our catalog and building sales for all of our members.
4. It's fun - remember as says Confucius, "choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life"
Okay, let's see if we can do this..... First let me introduce you to my inspiration - Parker
