Our focus around here this week is CONSISTENCY… Being consistent is one of the fundamental foundations used to grow a textile upcycling business.
Reusing textiles for production introduces a set of variables, adding one-of-a-kind value, nostalgia, and richness of history AND inconsistencies in color, fabric quality, wear, size, and material availability.
It is especially important to be consistent with things you can control so that your customers know what to expect, counting on you to deliver the thing they love about you and your product. Once it becomes a habit, being consistent simplifies sourcing, production, and communication.
Here is a laundry list textile upcycling-centric things that are simply more efficient and effective when done consistently. The list might seem long but let me tell ya that putting ‘consistency guardrails’ in place keeps focus, while removing wonder and time consuming decision making. On top of that, being consistent helps your audience know, like, and trust you which, in time, will convert your friends fans and followers into paying customers.
Are you ready?
