@salt.stone.bakery: If I had to grow a bakery from $O all over again, these are the first things I'd change: 1. Stop using those Al food flyers. I'm just going to say it... most of them look like absolute trash. I don't care if it hurts feelings. I said what I said. People buy with their eyes, and fake-looking food doesn't build trust. Your phone is enough. You do not need a professional camera. Learn basic lighting, take real photos of your actual products, and spend five minutes editing them. Authentic wins every time. 2. Stop trying to sell everything to everyone. I made this mistake when I first started. I wanted to have everything because I thought more options meant more sales. It doesn't. Less is more. Focus on a smaller menu, make those items exceptional, and become known for them before expanding. 3. Stop posting only when you're selling. People don't just buy bread—they buy you. Show the mixing. The flour everywhere. The early mornings. The mistakes. The behind-the-scenes. Let people connect with the person behind the bakery. 4. Price like a business owner, not someone hoping people will say yes. If your prices barely cover ingredients, you're running a very expensive hobby. Know your costs, pay yourself for your time, and stop apologizing for charging what your work is worth. There will always be someone that thinks your prices are too high, those are obviously not your customers. Agree or disagree... what's your biggest bakery hot take? #sourdough #cottagebakery #supportlocal #sourdoughtips
