SouleMama: What's the product or offering you are most excited about right now?
Kate: Stubby Pencil Studio has been a flurry of activity lately! Spring is usually busy with orders for Easter goodies, but we've been really hopping! Our eco highlighter pencils arrived from Austria last month and we've been racing to pack and ship them out. Unlike typical plastic highlighter pens, these eco highlighters use no ink solvents, no volatile organic compounds and are biodegradable + they are long lasting and will not bleed through thin pages. They are amazing and in high demand. If you use highlighters, we bet you'll love them, too!
SouleMama: How are your children incorporated into your business?
Kate Sage and Sierra, my twins, are almost 8 years old. They have been involved in the business since the beginning, after all, they were the inspiration that started everything. I have always appreciated their willingness to help out testing new products - which really may not seem like "work" but is such an important role. If my kids do not like the products, chances are other families will be disappointed, too. Lately, I have been able to rely on them to help me with packing the highlighter pencils into sets of 4 - pink, orange, yellow and green. They take their job very seriously - inspecting each pencil for flaws before packing. I was very impressed. Daddy was helping and I commented that he had put the pencils in backward. When I asked Sierra how that happened, she answered, "Well, we didn't know it was his first time." And she gave him a little on the job training. Having the girls involved in the business has helped them to appreciate commerce and the translation from earning money to buy something.
