Several of our followers find it interesting to read about how Örtfabriken is doing and what it's like to develop a new company from scratch.
For us at Örtfabriken, the world of herbs is the most interesting :-) but after that comes business development. It gets more and more exciting as time goes on. Surely there are several of our followers who run businesses themselves. And then there are probably some who dream of taking the plunge. This post is for you!
Please let us know if you think we are writing about what you want to read.
Autumn 2021 had many challenges in its lap. First, we needed to change from a sole proprietorship to a limited liability company. So much administration! It was important to consolidate the company since there are several of us involved. It will also be more secure privately if something bad happens. Overall, the recommendation is to have a limited liability company instead of a sole proprietorship.
A great relief fell from Örtfabriken's shoulders when the Swedish Food Agency approved the names of our products Happy Energy and Happy Hormones . We celebrated big! Unfortunately, we couldn't keep the name Happy Tummy (such a great name, we know) - instead, that tincture is now called Happy Bitters. But it's just as good, we promise!
On an emotional level, we have worked hard to separate our own feelings from Örtfabriken's successes and setbacks. It is easy to get carried away emotionally when we are so involved and to have our entire day colored by how Örtfabriken is doing. It is not reasonable for it to be like this, but understandable. It will probably get easier with time.
We are excited to be one step further on our journey!
