I started out with my personal FB page…I friended every single person I could in my small town. And then I took pictures of every cake,cookie and anything else and posted regularly. Also, my first few orders were for some businesses having open houses and it was good word-of-mouth (make friends with every hairdresser in town for the best word-of-mouth advertizing,lol) As far as pricing goes- visit some local bakeries and see what they charge, do NOT try to compete with grocery store prices- people who are looking for a ‘deal’ should go to the grocery store-they are not your customers-forget them….your customers will be people who are looking for custom designs, fresh baked items, quality ingredients and they will know that this costs money. And again, I cannot emphasize how important it is to be-friend the hair salons in your area….this is where your customers will be (females with expendle incomes) Best of luck to you! :)
