The 2015 Year In Review

2015 is almost over!  Can you believe it?  I swear this year has flown by for me.  I've spent the past few days reviewing how the year treated me. How was it for you?  This has been an exciting year for me!  For one, Bella Sunshine Designs was launched which after a year of planning was a super big deal to me.  I went from dreaming of being a fashion designer to living the dream.  Who wouldn't be happy about that progress? Let's look back at the 2015 Year In Review.

Goals

I had several goals for this past year.  I'm happy to say they were all met!  I wanted to finally start my business; accomplished.  My goal was to have 12 items in my shop before the end of the year; accomplished.  I had sales goals I wanted to reach; goal not only met, but I surpassed them! It was a good year for me.

Stats

Because I love it when people are super transparent about their business, I want to do that with mine.  Here's a little summary of how I did in 2015:

This site had over 140,000 page views.  While that number is peanuts to bigger blogs, for my first year in business, it overwhelms me!

There were over 20,000 users on my site in 2015.

I had over 4,000 orders in 2015.  That number seriously makes my head spin.

I have almost 1900 people in my Facebook Group.  It's so fun to see everyone share what they are sewing! I'm so thankful that I have such a great group of people there.

And all this was started at the end of February.  I just can't believe all this happened in just 10 months! 2015 has been a blessed year for me.  I cannot wait to see how 2016 turns out.  I have a feeling that my business is going to explode in the new year.  Check back on Thursday to take a look at my goals for 2016.

How was 2015 for you?  Did anything exciting happen?  Let me know in the comments section.
