First Sale

Picture of the Day for 2/13/2013. My sister Robynne and I are so excited. We launched our speech therapy company, You Can Teach Speech Now, last year and we've gotten off to a very good start. We've sold her speech therapy workbooks at a big national speech therapy convention in Atlanta and her products have been selling on a site called teacherspayteachers.com. We had yet to sell anything through our website, www.teachspeechnow.com, until today when we made our first sale. Someone purchased the entire Vowel+/R/ series of six workbooks. Yay!!! It feels like we're "official" now.

This sale came on the very day we met with the coordinator over all the speech therapists for Davis County schools where Robynne was employed for 35 years. We took Cheryl out to lunch to pick her brain about what type of marketing materials she receives from speech therapy companies peddling their wares and what catches her attention. She gave us a ton of good advice about how to market Robynne's products to school districts. We're fittin to do a big marketing push to school districts nationwide. We're starting by targeting the 10 wealthiest school districts in the country based on the assumption that they actually have money in their budgets for speech therapy materials. It will also be a good test run for our marketing campaign.
