Eat your heart out Glenn Reynolds.
Update: The #1 biggest issue my wife is trying to deal with is how to ramp up her business to larger scale production. Nordstroms and Nieman-Marcus are interested in her bags, but its just a whole 'nother level of volume. Turns out one of our Coyote readers addresses the issue of growing fashion businesses and manufacturing with her own blog here.
That picture is much better than the newspaper scan you put in a few months ago.
Thanks for the plug- I always endeavor to be worth the value of my reader's time and attention. My best wishes for your wife's continued success.
