You’ve decided you want a sales rep and you’ve decided you’re ready for one too. The next step is defining what sort of sales rep you should hire. I’m using the word “hire” pretty loosely here… If you want to work with an independent sales rep, both of you create a contractual relationship rather than an employer/employee relationship. You don’t typically pay an independent sales rep benefits or withhold taxes from her commission check. If the relationship ends, the sales rep won’t receive unemployment benefits. These are some of the legal reasons why sales reps are independent.

I’m going to tell you flat out that if you’ve designed a tee shirt line and have a collection of 6 or 8 tees that have done pretty well when you’ve sold them at your local Mom2Mom or craft show, you’re not ready for a rep—yet. How can you get your line ready for a rep, and the increased sales that go hand in hand?

A good day is when you laugh. Several times a day, if possible. Or at least a hearty giggle. Since our business is everything to do with children, The Giggle Guide™ wants to start sharing how funny kids are. Children bring joy, laughter and an oftentimes hysterical view of life. Let’s celebrate their sense of humor.

How has a child made you laugh, smile, or giggle today? E-mail your real-life laughs to . I want to start a regular “Giggle of the Day” column!

A giggle from my past, to get started:

Hello….just taking a break from a HUGE custom job I’m working and I need to step away from for a little bit. I’ve been showing little bits of my home every couple of weeks and today I’m bringing you my youngest son Austin’s room. He is a serious trinket collector, football lover, book reader, and the sweetest 9 yr. old ever! The letter A above I made when we first moved in, the wood came from scraps that my house was built with. Oh and the foot on the wall…that’s a football fathead…of course.

Are you looking for a new sales manager? Can you no longer afford your current sales manager? Are you in need of a sales manager? Need help managing your sales reps? Need new reps? Are you at a loss with your line and don’t know which direction to go?

Look no further

I am so excited to be getting my art into Hong Kong! Linea Negra Maternity is the name of the store. They sell high end maternity clothes and for baby as well. They have recently been adding other products to the store and I’m so happy to be one of them. The pictures above are a few of what they purchased. The shipment is ready and going today…well, it’s been ready and finally UPS is picking it up today.

On to the next and off to paint

Like most pregnant woman I have morning sickness. Also known as ALL day sickness. I’ve been lucky enough that I have not thrown up, but I still feel queasy and nauseous most of the day. I’ve read in one of my pregnancy books it is due to hormone changes. I’ve looked on the Internet for various cures/suggestions to help ease the nausea. I found a few suggestions — ginger and peppermint seem to be the most prominent helpers.

I recently found out I am pregnant! Yeah! I’m so excited. I decided to tell my boss and coworkers, since I will be going to many appointments in the next few weeks. One of my coworkers had gotten a daily baby pregnancy calendar at a tradeshow. She said she wasn’t too sure about it. She had read the first few weeks and they were pretty interesting. So she brought me the calendar the next day. It is called- Countdown to My Birth. It’s a nice flippy calendar, so you can put it on a desk and read daily about what your baby is doing.

I’m stepping in today from a week of extreme painting. I have been filling store orders and I’m still going. I thought I’d show a new product that I introduced at my last show in Dallas. I wanted to introduce the hawk line more with the blocks, so I decided to start making name banners. They are doing well, and they are so cute. I recommend my stores to order a boys name and a girls name and they get a complimentary ring of about 25 color block samples. I also recommend mixing light colors with bright colors, it really makes the banner even cuter.
