🤍 Let’s talk about small business pricing for a minute!
Something I don’t think people always realize is just how much goes into running a small business, especially when it comes to pricing products!
When you purchase a shirt, sweatshirt, or custom item from Pineda Designs, you’re paying for so much more than just the finished product.
✨ Materials: Every shirt, sweatshirt, and supply has to be purchased before I can even start your order. And unfortunately, those costs add up quickly!
✨ Designs & Equipment: Between creating designs, purchasing prints, and having the right equipment to make everything, there’s a lot that goes into bringing an idea to life.
✨ Time & Effort: Every order takes time! Whether it’s designing something custom, pressing shirts, communicating with customers, or making sure everything looks perfect, there’s a lot of work behind the scenes.
✨ Business Expenses: Packaging, shipping supplies, website fees, taxes, and all the other little things that come with owning a business are expenses people don’t always see.
As a small business, I can’t purchase materials at the same prices as big companies that order thousands of items at once. I do my best to keep my prices reasonable while also making sure I’m covering my expenses and valuing the time I put into each order.
And I completely understand that everyone has a budget! I would never expect someone to spend money they don’t have just to support my business. But I also hope people understand that my prices aren’t just numbers I randomly come up with. There’s a reason behind them. 🤍
I started this business because I love being creative and making things for people. Seeing someone excited about something I made is genuinely one of my favorite parts of doing this!
I’m still learning, growing, and figuring things out as I go, but I put so much love and effort into what I do.
To everyone who has ever ordered from me, shared my posts, recommended me to someone, or simply supported me along the way, THANK YOU! 🥹🩷
You have no idea how much those little things mean to someone trying to grow a business and turn something they love into something bigger.
Shopping small means supporting someone’s hard work, creativity, and dreams. And I’m so thankful for everyone who continues to support mine! 🤍🫶🏼
