In this episode of Angel Foods Show, I interview Stephanie Loomis from Stefie Cakes and Treats about how she had a booming cake business and moved town/state and had to start from scratch and what exactly she is doing about it! Her inspiring story of pain, disability and overcoming hurdles and obstacles … well, it is a story you will remember!

We also cover:

  • websites + blogging
  • her marketing plan to rebuild her business + get her name out there
  • networking and collaboration ideas
  • putting on her ‘big girl panties’
  • inspiration out the wazoo!

Stephanie shares how she moved all the way across American and it was like starting her cake business from scratch. In her hometown, all she had to do was a post on Facebook and she was fully booked out! Except this second time was a lot harder, as she doesn’t have friends and family and WOM.

To overcome this she has started a website and is blogging, starting a business Pinterest account, created + handing out vouchers, Facebook business page + group, going to do markets and giving out samples.

With a disability from a car accident, she had no idea how to decorate before 2015. Now she finds baking and decorating therapeutic and actually feels no pain (when normally she has pain all day, every day!)

Stephanie is following the free Marketing Plan which I created this month, on how to get more inquiries, more sales, and more website traffic. If you don’t have enough orders or customers, then this freebie is for you! Grab here (including 100 marketing tips) – http://angelfoods.net/marketingplan
