By the Numbers August 27, 2015 08:00 2 Comments
Today is exactly one month since we launched our website. We are fascinated at how quickly website traffic can pick up... or slow down, and how far word of mouth can travel. It's amazing how much information we can get from a behind the scenes view from our website host, shopify. Before we get into the numbers, a big thank you to everyone who has helped spread the word about UPstudio. So far, we have only been marketing through social media and word of mouth, so all of our new likes, clicks, views, tweets, etc. are generated from people talking about UPstudio or sharing our posts and products with friends. Ok, now on to the good stuff: who doesn't love a good set of statistics?

Twitter Stats:
We have 16 followers (which is kind of embarrassing, so go follow us now), including Carolina Hurricane Zach Boychuk. We're curious to know Zach: Are you in the market for a planner to keep your hockey schedule straight? Do you have a lot of correspondents to keep up with and are looking for great everyday cards to drop in the mail? Or do you just like supporting a Raleigh business? While we're at it, what's your girlfriend status? (Asking for a friend. No seriously. We are happily married, but we have totally cute friends.)

Other Cool Facts:
Shopify lets us know how we're doing compared to other stores that launched the same day as ours. We're not at the very top, but we're higher than most!
Ok, that's a lot of images for one blog post. What else do you guys want to know? More dish on Hurricanes players? More statistics? Leave us a comment below (we're looking at you, Zach).

Thanks Chelsea! We’re pretty excited about the planners too. We are working on a series of blog posts that will give more information on the planners – where we started, our initial design, what has changed, and what you can expect – so look out for those coming up soon! The short answer to your question is that we will not have multiple styles, colors or layouts for our first run. This is something we definitely want to incorporate in the future, but we had to make some tough decisions with our initial release while we’re still testing the market. We’d love to hear your comments and feedback once the blog posts go live!

I just want to say that I’m pretty excited about planners. I may have missed some information previously but are other details you can give? Will there be multiple styles/colors or just one option to start out?
Also, congratulations Mary Beth! :)
