Inklings Paperie Hits the Shelves of 8,000 Starbucks Stores
About two years ago, Paper Camp alum Inklings Paperie was exhibiting at NY NOW for the first time, in a shared booth and on a bootstrap budget.
Inklings Founder and Creative Director Lindsay Henry happened to get to talking with a kind person at that trade show...who happened to be the Brand Manager of Global Merchandise for Starbucks.
That one meeting -- plus a year of follow-up, meetings, revisions and hard work -- led to Lindsay seeing her products on the shelves of 8,000 Starbucks stores across the U.S. and Canada.
Can you imagine that?
I love this story because it shows how good things take time...and you may meet someone at a trade show today that completely changes the course of your business over the next couple years. One of the best things about our Paper Camp program is that you’ll learn how to make a great first impression and come across as polished and professional when that chance encounter happens.
In fact, buyers WANT to work with our alums.
It’s like Samantha at Gus & Ruby Letterpress says: “Young companies entering the stationery and gift industry are more professional and prepared now -- in large part to Paper Camp! Thank you!”
I want you to be as prepared as possible when that big moment arrives.
If you agree... join us for Paper Camp.
