Oh My Goodness! I don’t think this much time has ever passed between posts and for that I apologize! It’s been a busy time but that’s no excuse because it’s always a busy time. I CANNOT believe we are coming up on ONE year since we launched! That amazes me! Me, Nikki from West Oak Lane in Philly, has been a business owner for a year?! What?! Crazy. On 12/16/2013, I plan to enumerate all of the AMAZING things that have happened in the last 365 days— exactly one year since we opened the website to take orders.
Since we last chatted on 10/16, things have been progressing well. Wands continue to sell on QVC.com, Amazon and nikkismagicwand.com. We love having distribution channels where people can drop Wands in their “cart” and try out the BEST cosmetic tool ever! 🙂
Oh, remember, the last time I told ya’ll I’d been invited to be a guest on “Our Region’s Business” with Bill Flannigan? Well, I did the show and it was a WONDERFUL experience. Really great! I even got to hang out in the “green” room like the celebs waiting to go on tv! 🙂

Right around the time of my last post, a public relations person that we hired started working for us and she’s been making contacts with big, glossy publications like Allure, Shape Magazine, etc. AND, we were featured on Allure.com!!!

At this time, we are gearing up for the holiday season. Can you think of a better stocking stuffer? Of course, I can’t. 🙂
The best friend/biz partner and I are in reflection mode:
1. Did we do our best to spread the Nikki’s Magic Wand name in 2013?
2. What could we have done differently?
3. What will 2014 hold?
4. Where do we put our precious dollars?
5. How do we make NMW a household name?
6. Do we try to get on Shark Tank like every single person has asked us? 🙂
I can’t WAIT to list all of the phenomenal things that have happened since we launched almost a year ago. Stay tuned.
As always, I can’t thank you enough for going on this journey with me. I’ve been writing this blog for over a year now and it continues to bring me joy.
Happy December!
Nikki
