Get RAR Premium before January 5th to lock in our current low rates!Today, I've got another Best Of RAR episode for you.I wanted to revisit this episode because it feels extra relevant this time of year as we're thinking about setting goals and resolutions for the year ahead.Personally, I tend to feel a little overwhelmed by it and I bet some of you can relate.And when it comes to books and goals for our reading lives, one of the things we hear at Read Aloud Revival all the time is, “There are so many books and so little time!”There are SO MANY good books we want to read aloud with our families and we're always trying to figure out how to fit more in.

  Welcome to the last episode in my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I've answered a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week Beth Eaton of The Ruffled Daisy is here to talk about something we're all facing right now. How to retain subscribers in a world where costs are rising.  Beth started her business 10 years ago selling completed home decor pieces. Soon, people wanted to learn how to make these pieces themselves and they wanted Beth to teach them. Beth started selling kits and building a community of crafters. She tried launching a subscription box a few years ago and it just didn't stick with her community. When COVID struck and we all found ourselves at home, Beth tried again. This time her community was ready! She started with 23 subscribers and two years later has 330 monthly subscribers.  Beth came to me with a question that a lot of my members have right now. With the challenges the world is facing right now and the increasing cost of absolutely everything, Beth wanted to know what she can do to retain her subscribers when her box isn't seen as a need.  The first question I asked Beth was about her retention rate. While she didn't know the exact number (she was going to figure it out as soon as our interview ended), she did have valuable information. Beth knew the point in the life of their subscription at which many of her subscribers canceled.  Knowing when you start to lose subscribers allows you to put some things in place to keep them on track. Beth and I talked about what she can do to recapture the sense of togetherness inside her community and help subscribers consume the contents of her box.  We also talked about six important facets of the subscriber experience and identified some things Beth can do to make improvements.  Reducing the length of time between payment and box in hand.  Consistently communicating with subscribers.  Having a cancellation survey in place and paying attention to the results.  Getting personal - don't just rely on automations.  Focusing on customer service response time.  Making customer reviews visible.  Join me for this episode as Beth and I talk about the challenges subscription box owners face right now and the practical, actionable things she can do to improve her subscriber experience, retain more subscribers and continue to grow.    Important Links:  Find and follow Beth:  The Ruffled Daisy on Facebook The Ruffled Daisy on Instagram The Ruffled Daisy Website   Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website  Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Welcome to episode seven of my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I answer a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week Alivia Key of Light of the Lamb is here to talk about how to handle increasing the price of her subscription and whether it's time to move from an open to a closed cart model. Alivia has been a member of Launch Your Box for two years. During that time she has launched and grown two subscriptions - a monthly t-shirt subscription and a quarterly subscription box.  Like all business owners right now, Alivia has seen her cost of goods sold increase significantly this year which means her subscriptions aren't as profitable as they were.  That increase in costs and decrease in profits led to Alivia bringing two related questions to me. The first is how to handle a price increase with her audience and the second is whether to move from an open to a closed subscription model.  Alivia and I talked through the reasons for the price increase. I reminded her that in order to continue to serve her subscribers, her business needs to stay strong. And that means staying profitable.  Moving to a closed cart is a perfect time to announce an upcoming price increase.  It gives people a reason to BUY NOW!  The upcoming price increase drives marketing for the closed cart - people need to get in now to be locked in at the current price.  It creates urgency, scarcity, and FOMO!  The next question is when and how to move to a closed cart. I recommended Alivia identify a two-week period when she can go all-in on the closed cart launch. Her social posts, LIVES, and emails need to stay focused on the launch. In her content, she needs to:  Be transparent. Explain to her audience why she's raising prices and closing her cart.    Bring members onto her LIVES. Host “Girl Talk” and talk about why her subscription is more than just a t-shirt to them.  Have fun with ads. Shake things up and get creative. Send emails with links to her LIVES and explain the what and why behind the changes.  During LIVES, show off past designs.  Create a variety of ads and posts - some silly, some serious, some inspirational.   I recommended Alivia go into full launch mode for two weeks instead of the usual 4-5 days. This is because she's making a big change and needs to give her audience time to see what she's posting and react to it.  Join me for this episode as Alivia and I talk about making necessary changes to keep our businesses healthy and profitable. If you're wondering how to handle a price increase or move to a closed cart subscription model, don't miss this episode!   Important Links:  Find and follow Alivia:  Light of the Lamb on Facebook Light of the Lamb on Instagram Light of the Lamb Website   Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website    Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Welcome to episode six of my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I answer a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week BreeAnna Holden of Holden Keepsakes is here to talk about how to introduce her subscription box to the audience she has built for her online product-based business.  BreeAnna is an OG member of Launch Your Box. That means she has been inside my coaching membership for almost two years. But, she hasn't launched her subscription box yet. She's stuck.  When she started her glitter tumbler business three years ago (and you HAVE to see the gorgeous tumblers she makes), BreeAnna was looking for a way to keep busy while her husband worked nights and to make a little extra income for her family. BreeAnna has dreamed of adding a subscription box for two years. She knows it will provide consistent, recurring revenue and allow her to plan her workload more effectively, allowing for more family time.  So what's standing in BreeAnna's way? She has a great product that her customers love. As an OG member of Launch Your Box, she has learned all the things. She has seen so many others start, launch, and grow their own subscription boxes. So why hasn't BreeAnna taken action on her subscription box dreams? Self-doubt, indecision, and social media.  BreeAnna, like SO MANY women I talk to inside and outside my membership, struggles with self-doubt. She doubts herself and her ability to make this subscription box dream a reality. It's important to realize that nearly everyone feels like this sometimes. I know I did.  BreeAnna is also stuck, unable to decide what kind of box to offer her audience. She keeps going back and forth between a one item of the month box and a curated box.  Social media engagement is a challenge for BreeAnna. She struggles to be consistent on social media and isn't getting the engagement she needs. Without an actual box to share, she's unsure how she should introduce the idea of a subscription box to her audience.  BreeAnna and I talked through the things that have been holding her back. After talking through her mindset issues, I got practical and gave BreeAnna practical solutions to:  Re-engage her audience.    Plan six months' worth of boxes.  Choose a launch date and create a pre-launch plan.  Once we talked through everything and BreeAnna had a plan for moving forward, I could hear the lightness in her voice. She committed to a launch date of July 14th and has a plan to get there with an engaged, excited audience.   Join me for this episode as BreeAnna and I talk about what holds so many of us back from taking action - self-doubt. I know you'll relate to BreeAnna's story and take away inspiration and practical advice to help you take action toward achieving your own subscription box dreams.  Important Links:  Find and follow BreeAnna:  Holden Keepsakes on Facebook Holden Keepsakes on Instagram Holden Keepsakes Etsy Shop   Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website    Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Welcome to episode five of my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I answer a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week Maria Riebe of Sunflower & Scout is here to talk about how to handle variations and personalization for her subscription box.  Like so many entrepreneurs, the pandemic forced Maria to pivot. A true antique-lover, she had been producing an outdoor vintage market, Rustapalooza. She had experienced a great deal of success and national recognition for this show. Covid caused the cancellation of the show and, after a time, Maria's heart started pointing her in a new direction.  Maria is a member of an impassioned group of leather bag lovers - and they all love straps! So she decided to start an online shop focused specifically on bag straps and accessories. While setting up her online shop, Maria discovered Launch Your Box. She loved the idea of curating a monthly box for her customers that included a bag strap, as well as some kind of accessory, tee, or multiple items.  Maria wants to include some type of personalized item in her subscription box but is stumped by the tech it would involve. With a launch date of August 1st, it's time to figure out these details!  Maria knows my team handles all kinds of variations and personalization - from six different sizes in my t-shirt subscriptions to the monogrammed items that go in the Monogram Box every month.  We talked through the challenges involved and I told Maria what she needs to do in order to successfully manage variations and personalization.   Be prepared to scale. Realize that what can be done with 50 subscribers will need to be done with 500 subscribers.   Outsource personalization as you grow or hire in-house help.  Put systems and processes in place to manage subscriber details. Now that we talked through what Maria needs to get in place to feel comfortable offering variations and personalization to her future subscribers, she is moving toward that August 1st launch date with confidence.  Join me for this episode as Maria and I talk about the systems and processes every subscription box owner needs to have in place, and why they are so important when your box includes variations and personalization.  Important Links:  Find and follow Maria:  Sunflower & Scout Website    Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website    Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Welcome to episode four of my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I'll be answering a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week Traci Gibson of Print Cut Craft and I tackled the question of how to grow a subscription past a plateau.  Traci started her business ten years ago, selling printables and teaching classes at scrapbooking conferences. When she (and her family) got tired of all the weekend travel, Traci took her scrapbook kits online. She pivoted and her business evolved as she listened to what her customers wanted and served their needs. In 2020, Traci started teaching LIVE workshops online and selling craft kits to go with them. This has been a huge boost to her business and led to a membership where members craft with Traci each month using their Cricut machines and her svg files.  Traci thought about starting a subscription box for a while. She joined Launch Your Box and watched and learned. When she decided to take action and launched her box, her membership was the perfect audience for her subscription, and it grew quickly. For a while. Then came the plateau. Traci's growth slowed and then stopped. She has hit a plateau and reached out for my help to get past it.   We talked through some possible reasons Traci's subscription box growth has slowed and recommended some steps for Traci to take to jumpstart her growth. She needs to:  Shake things up - make it new and fresh for her audience.  Reduce churn by increasing retention and decreasing involuntary churn.  Up the exclusivity factor of her subscription.  Get in front of new audiences.  With a clear plan and specific action steps to take, Traci feels confident her subscription will start to grow again. I can't wait to hear about the growth she sees as a result of making these changes.    Join me for this episode as Traci and I talk about something nearly every subscription owner experiences - hitting a plateau. A plateau is a reminder that we need to constantly be learning and growing as subscription box owners. And that sometimes we need to change what we're doing in order to continue to grow.  Important Links:  Find and follow Traci:  Print Cut Craft Boutique on Facebook Print Cut Craft on Instagram Print Cut Craft Website    Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website  Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Welcome to the third installment of my eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I'll be answering a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week Lexie Haubert of The Crafty Lady Boutique and I tackled the question of how to get people to engage with her content on social media.  Lexie's online business came about when she was unable to find bridal party gifts she liked while planning her own wedding and instead created her own. When she received incredibly positive feedback about her creations, she decided to take them online. The result? Her Etsy store ranks in the top 1% of all bridal sellers in the world! In addition to one-time boxes and individual gifts, Lexie offers a monthly subscription box for brides who are planning a wedding.  Like all wedding-related businesses, The Crafty Lady Boutique was greatly impacted by the pandemic. Things are on a definite upswing and Lexie is focusing her efforts on regaining and further growing her business. But the lack of social media engagement is holding her back.  When someone is struggling to get engagement on social media, I am usually able to identify the cause easily. The problem might be:  Lack of followers Lack of consistency  An issue with the quality of photos or videos An issue with the product itself  In Lexie's case, NONE of these is the problem. She has a good number of followers. She has been posting consistently for the past several months. Her images and videos are GREAT. And her products? Well, let's just say there's a reason she's in the top 1% of her category!  So what is the issue? Why aren't Lexie's followers engaging with her content?  No one is seeing her stuff. She's not getting in front of the RIGHT people - brides. When people don't engage with your content, it hurts the algorithm and even fewer people see it. Lexie needs to find more of the right people. She needs to find more brides.  I asked more questions and came up with an action plan for Lexie that includes:  Picking a day and time to go LIVE each week.  Teasing something that's coming up on the LIVE in a post and an email.  Getting her friends to show up to her LIVES to ask questions that generate conversations.  Boosting one post per week.  Finding more brides by holding quarterly giveaways and getting active inside bridal groups.   Serving her audience by creating content that establishes her as a wedding authority.  With this new plan in place, Lexie knows what she needs to do to find new brides and attract more of the right people. And once they discover the great products she's offering, the rest will take care of itself!   Join me for this episode as Lexie and I dig deep into what really drives engagement on social media. It's more than having pretty pictures of great products. Discover easy-to-implement strategies to attract the right followers and increase your engagement, too.   Important Links:  Find and follow Lexie:  Crafty Lady Boutique on Facebook Crafty Lady Boutique on Instagram Crafty Lady Boutique Website    Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website    Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

“Messy Action is better than no action.” - Sarah Williams Welcome to the second in my new eight-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I'll be answering a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week's question came from Gina Rich of Serendipity Lane. Gina's question was simple. “Why am I stuck?”  Gina had a brick-and-mortar scrapbooking and card-making business for 15 years. She still runs occasional classes and scrapbooking retreats out of the space, but moved the majority of her business online due to the pandemic. Gina offered one-time “Happy Boxes” as products and also had a small, very casual card “subscription” with about 20 subscribers.  Gina found Launch Your Box and realized a card subscription box was what she wanted to do. She has a proven concept. She knows just what she wants to include and the experience she wants to provide her subscriber. But… she hasn't launched. She's not even close to launching yet. Why? What's holding her back?  Gina's first issue is shared by SO MANY people who want to start subscription boxes. She wants everything to be perfect before she starts.  The hard truth? Nothing will ever be perfect. And messy action is always better than no action. It's time for Gina to give herself permission to not be perfect and commit to taking messy action. Every day.   Gina is also stuck because she can't decide how to price her box. She wants to provide value to her subscribers but finds it takes a lot of her time to fulfill the box she wants to offer. I took Gina through the research I did on similar boxes that are already on the market. We discussed whether the price she had in mind was a good one and brainstormed ideas to add value that won't require more of her time.  The last thing that has Gina stuck is social media. She's not getting engagement because she's not consistent. Gina needs to be consistent in order to build an audience to launch to! I gave her homework to complete and will be checking in 30 days from now.   Join me for this episode as Gina and I talk through what's holding her back and how she can get unstuck and start making progress toward launching her box. I know you'll learn as much as she did from this interview.     Important Links:  Find and follow Gina:  Serendipity Lane on Facebook Serendipity Lane Website    Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website  Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

“How do you balance everything?”   I'm kicking off a new six-part series on the podcast called, “Ask Sarah.” Each week, I'll be answering a question from inside my Launch Your Box coaching membership.  This week's question came from Mar. And when Mar told me all about her business and the many different roles she plays in her life, I understood exactly where the question came from.  Mar and her family run Windborne Farms where they raise bees, along with other animals and crops. Mar's love for the bees turned into a side business when she discovered a passion for beeswax candles. And that passion grew further into a subscription box, the Bee Still Box.  In addition to being a business owner, Mar is a beekeeper, farmer, partner, and homeschooling mom of young children. Her question to me was, “How do you balance everything?”  The short answer - I don't. None of us can. The idea that it's possible for anyone, especially a woman, to keep the various parts of her life in balance is kind of ridiculous. But… there are things I've learned during my nine years as a business owner and five years as a subscription box owner that help me keep my life in better balance. Those are the things I shared with Mar - and with you.  When it comes to the actual logistics of juggling the kid stuff and the house stuff and the business stuff and the self stuff, I learned that I need systems and I need help. Some of my strategies included:  Hiring help - and recognizing it's okay.  Asking my family members for help and delegating some tasks.  Scheduling time with friends and family.  Taking breaks when I need them.  Creating structure in my days, weeks, and months.  Removing distractions.  Join me for this episode as Mar shares her fascinating subscription box journey and we talk mom to mom and business owner to business owner about finding balance and juggling all the things.      Important Links:  Find and follow Mar:  Windborne Candles on Facebook Windborne Candles on Instagram   Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website  Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

I got really curious about some of the things that we childless women are told, like how we're selfish, we don't know what true love is unless we've had a baby, and so on. Some people in the childless community refer to these as “bingos”. What are bingos? Well think of it this way – if you've played bingo, you'll know that you get a card, and when a number is called – Legs 11!!! – you mark off that number on the card. It's a kind way of making light of the shit we hear from others. So I asked my friend, Sarah Roberts, herself a childless woman and a counsellor, about whether there's actually any truth to these bingos. Are childless women actually selfish?
