WHY THIS WORKS
Most handmade sellers are struggling because they're focused on the wrong things.
You can spend hours on Instagram, rework your listings a dozen times, and still wonder why sales feel so unpredictable. The problem usually isn't effort, it's direction. The Shop Operator looks at your actual shop data every week, finds the one thing that's holding your sales back, and tells you exactly what to do about it.
Nice job!
You crushed your goal of launching 5 new products this month.

"I spent 20 years figuring out what actually works in handmade business. This app is everything I learned, delivered to you one day at a time."
Mei Pak
20 years building creative businesses to 6-7 figures. 5,000+ students helped to launch and grow their own profitable shops.
For the past 20 years I've been building creative businesses from scratch. Handmade jewelry, personalized vintage map art, craft tutorials and kits. I've sold them all, and I know exactly how hard it is to figure out what actually drives sales when you're doing everything yourself.
Over time I found what works. I grew my creative businesses to 6-7 figures, taught over 6,000 students through my courses, spoken at conferences, been published in books, and built a community of hundreds of thousands of amazing makers.
But the thing that drives me most is the student who quit her day job. The one who retired her spouse. The one who built a million dollar business from a craft she loved. I've watched that happen over and over again, and I know what it takes to get there.
I built this app because most handmade sellers don't need more information. They need to know what to do today. That's what The Shop Operator does.

See how Mei Pak has changed lives around the world 💖
Join 1000's of creatives making a living selling their products online
Mei’s program walked me step by step through everything I needed to know to start a handmade business — from figuring out my product and ideal customer to building a brand and foundation the right way. That foundation ended up being a lifesaver.
My first product line (which centered around the cruise industry) completely collapsed when COVID hit, but because of what I learned in A Sale A Day, I was able to pivot, rebuild, and relaunch a new business — Forged Flare® — by Christmas that same year.
Today, my business Forged Flare® is still going strong, and our Mother’s Angels® gifts are cherished by many across the United States. If you’re serious about turning your handmade passion into a real business, I can’t recommend A Sale A Day enough. It’s one of the best investments I’ve ever made in myself and my business.

Only 16 days into the month and I've made 500 orders this month. I am the founder of an eCommerce store that sells pottery painting kits for children.
And it was exactly a year ago that I purchased a sale a day which I think is pretty cool to, to be able to share what has happened in the last year since I bought Mei Pak's course, A Sale A Day Business System exactly a year ago.

I joined ASAD early this year because last Black Friday I had a very underwhelming weekend with only 7 orders 😭 and that's when I realized I needed help.
After several months of hard work, 3:00 am mornings and obsessing over each Module like 10 times, 😅 I was rewarded with 81 ORDERS this weekend! 🙌 (And the orders are STILL coming in!)
This is no where near my ultimate goal but HOLY COW THE PROGRESS! I am so beyond grateful to Mei and this course. I'm learning so much everyday and am super excited for the future of my business.

I am a mature age participant (yes a granny of nearly 60) of your course and have benefited from it soooo much!
My husband and I have had a business for over 23 years in recycled timber picture frames. We have had great moments with it where we earned an enormous amount and have brought up 4 children on this business. But! We were doing markets, festivals and fairs. When we look back on this we realised just how intensely hard we worked, especially hubbie Simon.
Simon and I have retired from doing markets thanks to everything I have learnt and applied from your course. We are making a sale a day, which is great, because this is enough to give us a modest income. In the last 2 weeks we have received via the website: an order for 7 dress mirrors for people who are creating a luxury retreat for 18 people on a small island on the Barrier Reef, a bulk (second) order from an architect that specialises in sustainable living with her interior design and architecture business. And on top of that we have a (second) order from the government for a good number of frames which they are using in an award ceremony. All advertising gold!

Sales have doubled, and the conversion rate has finally crossed 1%!
Analytics dashboard screenshot showing €2,474.34 gross sales, 1.5% conversion rate, average order value €89.78.
It could be due to Mother's Day, the simplified product collection, the new logo, the optimized product pages, or the improved photos, or maybe a little bit of everything.
I want to say a big thank you to Mei and her team, and to everyone who has commented on my posts. I read every single comment, and your suggestions have truly helped. Looking forward to taking the next steps — let's keep growing together! 🌱

Before I joined A Sale A Day. I had been in another handmade business coaching class, but after about six months, I was really confused and overwhelmed. It seemed very theoretical. I didn't feel like it told me what to do. So I, I stumbled upon the Creative Hive A Sale A Day ad. The reason that I decided to join A Sale A Day was because it came across to me as a course that would tell you what to do and how to do it. It wasn't just theory.
So after I joined A Sale A Day, my sales have been more consistent this year. I think I'm averaging so far before the holidays hit about $800 a month in sales.
Update: I got laid off in November and have been working full time on my business since and hitting *$2k per month steadily.*

First, thank you Mei. Your programs and consulting really helped me when I was just getting started and had no idea what I was doing. It has been three years since I started my creative business and we are on track to cross $1M in revenue this year.
2016: $9K 2017: $184K 2018: $500K
2019: $1.4M (anticipated based on current deals/what we've done to date) All of this with no capital, no experience, etc.
I literally started from my kitchen on Etsy with $300.
We have been featured on Good Morning America, Well + Good, PopSugar, Huffington Post, BuzzFeed, Thought Catalogue, and many more outlets, including podcasts. Our business was also awarded small business of the year in California AD78 by Assemblymember Todd Gloria. I am now working on a major book deal.And I would love to make sure people have my testimonial and stamp of approval for you! <3

I been working on those drops in between times along with work picking up in my day job & other adulting life responsibilities.
The 80/20 approach helped me so much to prioritize and focus on the important things. More importantly, I love how this club kept my momentum in working on my business while I was handling so many other things that were going on at the same time. 💕 Good vibes motivates~ 💕
My website went from a cluttered child to becoming a refined young lady. It now has USP, customer reviews and helpful small tweaks for the photos to provide more info for my customers.

There is no way we'd still be in business if we hadn't signed up for your class!
Last summer we were trudging around doing low-profit, high-stress craft markets plus Etsy. This summer we have our own website, a highly interested following on social media, our own subscription program, and have made just about double the money we invested in your program last fall.
I graduated several years ago with a bachelor's degree in marketing. A Sale A Day has proved much more useful than my degree!
Back to where we are today. We signed up for A Sale A Day last fall. We opened our shop and Instagram accounts in January. Since then we've acquired 1,600 IG followers, had 2,419 visits to our website, and made $1,500 in sales.

I just want to take a moment to thank Mei Pak.
I am hitting so many milestones this season (celebrating 10 years on Etsy this year, but found huge success in the last 15 months or so). Because of you, I worked my butt off pitching magazines and getting into everything from Southern Living, emails and finalist from Oprah's Favorite Things, Good Housekeeping, and a REALLY big one that approached me for a photoshoot on their own (coming soon). I loved how you had your necklace on TV shows, so I reached out to several to have my crayons placed on the shows and even got to create the Wrap Gift for Queen Sugar.
Yesterday alone I made 187 sales on Etsy and they keep coming in. I really credit you for motivating me and being the voice in the back of my head.
If you all have not taken the time to join her talks, listen to podcasts, etc., they work! Thanks so much Mei!

Four months ago, I watched Mei's video (called "Why I Deleted 50% of My Products and Made More Money"), and it really resonated with me. I was hesitant to cut products, especially those I'd invested time and money in. But I decided to focus on my shop's best sellers, which were the planner stickers and vinyl stickers. It definitely wasn't easy, but after I streamlined my products, I'm thrilled to say my average order values significantly increased! I started getting orders worth $100-200+ every week, which rarely happened before. So it really has been a game-changer!
UPDATE: I just woke up to a $521 order on Etsy after I eliminated 27% of my underperforming products from my shop this week! 🤩🎊🎉 This method really does work, guys! I've never gotten an order this big before!

Hi Mei, First of all — thank you. The Club has honestly helped me a lot over the past months. It brought me clarity, structure, and direction in my business, especially when things felt overwhelming. I come from a print-on-demand T-shirt background and used to just upload designs to marketplaces. Now I'm trying to build my own brand, and NCC has been a huge help with that. My current website is more like a test project — I took a design with strong sales and started building a brand around it, while learning everything step by step.

I took The A Sale A Day course because I needed help with my small business strategy. I needed help with understanding wholesaling my products and her course helped me to get my products into gift shops.
What helped the most was to print the courses out and go through them step by step. I would recommend!

Mei, and A Sale A Day, are the real deal! Before joining the program I was making a few sales here and there. Yet, when I joined A Sale A Day a lot changed. It didn't come overnight, but within a few months my sales grew over 40%. I joined in 2022 and my whole business has changed for the better since then.
Business has been growing steadily, my business has been written about in two magazines and I was even contacted by Ripley's Believe It or Not who not only purchased over $6,000 of my product for their museums around the U.S., but they also featured my business in their annual book in 2025.
I owe so much to Mei and the A Sale A Day program. If you really want to increase your handmade business, or want to turn your handmade hobby into a business, I strongly recommend joining A Sale A Day.

I was struggling to make sales and thanks to Mei Paks free youtube videos, I was able to start putting the pieces together to build a business. However as soon as I had the funds, I invested in a Sale A Day course. Her free info is amazing but the course gives you a proper plan, in the right order and it includes a supportive community as well. I am now making way beyond a sale a day in my art business, and I attribute alot of that success to Mei.
Clear and straightforward business advice, presented in a digestible way. She is a wonderful coach who does all she can to support others. I wish I had found it sooner and took the leap as I wasted so much time trying to work things out myself...she was worth every penny and stopped me getting distracted by the latest shiny object! I was able to follow a clear and simple path to success, and really get focused. Thank you to Mei and the whole team

Excuse me while I go pick my chin up off the floor! What in the bananas in going on??? I'm amazed, thankful and overwhelmed. My biz was born out of a passion to create hope in the lives of kids through education. Every bracelet sold helps pull another child out of poverty into possibility!
So much of what I've learned has come through Mei Pak & the Sale a Day program. I kid you not. She has walked me through so much & I'll be forever grateful for the foundational principals she's helped me set in place!!! (cuz, this little girl from the backwoods of KY was kinda sorta clueless).

20 years building creative businesses to 6-7 figures. 5,000+ students helped to launch and grow their own profitable shops.
For the past 20 years I've been building creative businesses from scratch. Handmade jewelry, personalized vintage map art, craft tutorials and kits. I've sold them all, and I know exactly how hard it is to figure out what actually drives sales when you're doing everything yourself.
Over time I found what works. I grew my creative businesses to 6-7 figures, taught over 6,000 students through my courses, spoken at conferences, been published in books, and built a community of hundreds of thousands of amazing makers.
But the thing that drives me most is the student who quit her day job. The one who retired her spouse. The one who built a million dollar business from a craft she loved. I've watched that happen over and over again, and I know what it takes to get there.

See how Mei Pak has changed lives around the world 💖
Join 1000's of creatives making a living selling their products online
Mei’s program walked me step by step through everything I needed to know to start a handmade business — from figuring out my product and ideal customer to building a brand and foundation the right way. That foundation ended up being a lifesaver.
My first product line (which centered around the cruise industry) completely collapsed when COVID hit, but because of what I learned in A Sale A Day, I was able to pivot, rebuild, and relaunch a new business — Forged Flare® — by Christmas that same year.
Today, my business Forged Flare® is still going strong, and our Mother’s Angels® gifts are cherished by many across the United States. If you’re serious about turning your handmade passion into a real business, I can’t recommend A Sale A Day enough. It’s one of the best investments I’ve ever made in myself and my business.

Only 16 days into the month and I've made 500 orders this month. I am the founder of an eCommerce store that sells pottery painting kits for children.
And it was exactly a year ago that I purchased a sale a day which I think is pretty cool to, to be able to share what has happened in the last year since I bought Mei Pak's course, A Sale A Day Business System exactly a year ago.

I joined ASAD early this year because last Black Friday I had a very underwhelming weekend with only 7 orders 😭 and that's when I realized I needed help.
After several months of hard work, 3:00 am mornings and obsessing over each Module like 10 times, 😅 I was rewarded with 81 ORDERS this weekend! 🙌 (And the orders are STILL coming in!)
This is no where near my ultimate goal but HOLY COW THE PROGRESS! I am so beyond grateful to Mei and this course. I'm learning so much everyday and am super excited for the future of my business.

I am a mature age participant (yes a granny of nearly 60) of your course and have benefited from it soooo much!
My husband and I have had a business for over 23 years in recycled timber picture frames. We have had great moments with it where we earned an enormous amount and have brought up 4 children on this business. But! We were doing markets, festivals and fairs. When we look back on this we realised just how intensely hard we worked, especially hubbie Simon.
Simon and I have retired from doing markets thanks to everything I have learnt and applied from your course. We are making a sale a day, which is great, because this is enough to give us a modest income. In the last 2 weeks we have received via the website: an order for 7 dress mirrors for people who are creating a luxury retreat for 18 people on a small island on the Barrier Reef, a bulk (second) order from an architect that specialises in sustainable living with her interior design and architecture business. And on top of that we have a (second) order from the government for a good number of frames which they are using in an award ceremony. All advertising gold!

Sales have doubled, and the conversion rate has finally crossed 1%!
Analytics dashboard screenshot showing €2,474.34 gross sales, 1.5% conversion rate, average order value €89.78.
It could be due to Mother's Day, the simplified product collection, the new logo, the optimized product pages, or the improved photos, or maybe a little bit of everything.
I want to say a big thank you to Mei and her team, and to everyone who has commented on my posts. I read every single comment, and your suggestions have truly helped. Looking forward to taking the next steps — let's keep growing together! 🌱

Before I joined A Sale A Day. I had been in another handmade business coaching class, but after about six months, I was really confused and overwhelmed. It seemed very theoretical. I didn't feel like it told me what to do. So I, I stumbled upon the Creative Hive A Sale A Day ad. The reason that I decided to join A Sale A Day was because it came across to me as a course that would tell you what to do and how to do it. It wasn't just theory.
So after I joined A Sale A Day, my sales have been more consistent this year. I think I'm averaging so far before the holidays hit about $800 a month in sales.
Update: I got laid off in November and have been working full time on my business since and hitting *$2k per month steadily.*

First, thank you Mei. Your programs and consulting really helped me when I was just getting started and had no idea what I was doing. It has been three years since I started my creative business and we are on track to cross $1M in revenue this year.
2016: $9K 2017: $184K 2018: $500K
2019: $1.4M (anticipated based on current deals/what we've done to date) All of this with no capital, no experience, etc.
I literally started from my kitchen on Etsy with $300.
We have been featured on Good Morning America, Well + Good, PopSugar, Huffington Post, BuzzFeed, Thought Catalogue, and many more outlets, including podcasts. Our business was also awarded small business of the year in California AD78 by Assemblymember Todd Gloria. I am now working on a major book deal.And I would love to make sure people have my testimonial and stamp of approval for you! <3

I been working on those drops in between times along with work picking up in my day job & other adulting life responsibilities.
The 80/20 approach helped me so much to prioritize and focus on the important things. More importantly, I love how this club kept my momentum in working on my business while I was handling so many other things that were going on at the same time. 💕 Good vibes motivates~ 💕
My website went from a cluttered child to becoming a refined young lady. It now has USP, customer reviews and helpful small tweaks for the photos to provide more info for my customers.

There is no way we'd still be in business if we hadn't signed up for your class!
Last summer we were trudging around doing low-profit, high-stress craft markets plus Etsy. This summer we have our own website, a highly interested following on social media, our own subscription program, and have made just about double the money we invested in your program last fall.
I graduated several years ago with a bachelor's degree in marketing. A Sale A Day has proved much more useful than my degree!
Back to where we are today. We signed up for A Sale A Day last fall. We opened our shop and Instagram accounts in January. Since then we've acquired 1,600 IG followers, had 2,419 visits to our website, and made $1,500 in sales.

I just want to take a moment to thank Mei Pak.
I am hitting so many milestones this season (celebrating 10 years on Etsy this year, but found huge success in the last 15 months or so). Because of you, I worked my butt off pitching magazines and getting into everything from Southern Living, emails and finalist from Oprah's Favorite Things, Good Housekeeping, and a REALLY big one that approached me for a photoshoot on their own (coming soon). I loved how you had your necklace on TV shows, so I reached out to several to have my crayons placed on the shows and even got to create the Wrap Gift for Queen Sugar.
Yesterday alone I made 187 sales on Etsy and they keep coming in. I really credit you for motivating me and being the voice in the back of my head.
If you all have not taken the time to join her talks, listen to podcasts, etc., they work! Thanks so much Mei!

Four months ago, I watched Mei's video (called "Why I Deleted 50% of My Products and Made More Money"), and it really resonated with me. I was hesitant to cut products, especially those I'd invested time and money in. But I decided to focus on my shop's best sellers, which were the planner stickers and vinyl stickers. It definitely wasn't easy, but after I streamlined my products, I'm thrilled to say my average order values significantly increased! I started getting orders worth $100-200+ every week, which rarely happened before. So it really has been a game-changer!
UPDATE: I just woke up to a $521 order on Etsy after I eliminated 27% of my underperforming products from my shop this week! 🤩🎊🎉 This method really does work, guys! I've never gotten an order this big before!

Hi Mei, First of all — thank you. The Club has honestly helped me a lot over the past months. It brought me clarity, structure, and direction in my business, especially when things felt overwhelming. I come from a print-on-demand T-shirt background and used to just upload designs to marketplaces. Now I'm trying to build my own brand, and NCC has been a huge help with that. My current website is more like a test project — I took a design with strong sales and started building a brand around it, while learning everything step by step.

I took The A Sale A Day course because I needed help with my small business strategy. I needed help with understanding wholesaling my products and her course helped me to get my products into gift shops.
What helped the most was to print the courses out and go through them step by step. I would recommend!

Mei, and A Sale A Day, are the real deal! Before joining the program I was making a few sales here and there. Yet, when I joined A Sale A Day a lot changed. It didn't come overnight, but within a few months my sales grew over 40%. I joined in 2022 and my whole business has changed for the better since then.
Business has been growing steadily, my business has been written about in two magazines and I was even contacted by Ripley's Believe It or Not who not only purchased over $6,000 of my product for their museums around the U.S., but they also featured my business in their annual book in 2025.
I owe so much to Mei and the A Sale A Day program. If you really want to increase your handmade business, or want to turn your handmade hobby into a business, I strongly recommend joining A Sale A Day.

I was struggling to make sales and thanks to Mei Paks free youtube videos, I was able to start putting the pieces together to build a business. However as soon as I had the funds, I invested in a Sale A Day course. Her free info is amazing but the course gives you a proper plan, in the right order and it includes a supportive community as well. I am now making way beyond a sale a day in my art business, and I attribute alot of that success to Mei.
Clear and straightforward business advice, presented in a digestible way. She is a wonderful coach who does all she can to support others. I wish I had found it sooner and took the leap as I wasted so much time trying to work things out myself...she was worth every penny and stopped me getting distracted by the latest shiny object! I was able to follow a clear and simple path to success, and really get focused. Thank you to Mei and the whole team

We're just over 1.5 years in... we are SO close to 100K sales revenue... like 97,500 close.
Excuse me while I go pick my chin up off the floor! What in the bananas in going on??? I'm amazed, thankful and overwhelmed. My biz was born out of a passion to create hope in the lives of kids through education. Every bracelet sold helps pull another child out of poverty into possibility!
So much of what I've learned has come through Mei Pak & the Sale a Day program. I kid you not. She has walked me through so much & I'll be forever grateful for the foundational principals she's helped me set in place!!! (cuz, this little girl from the backwoods of KY was kinda sorta clueless).
