Saturday, Ghosts, Swan City, & 6-Figures


This Week's Welcome

We're back this Saturday! At the Black Swan Venue from 8am-12pm to be exact!

Wake up to our awesome vendors + more! We will have plenty of fuel for your weekend! From coffee, bagels, pretzels and donuts, and pies, to meatball subs for lunch. From sweet treats to an array of products, check out this week's amazing lineup of Lakeland's small businesses!

Just for visiting booths, you can enter to win one of three giveaways! We're giving away a $25 Metro Diner Gift Card, $15 Foxtail Coffee Co. Gift Card, and an 8" 3D Printed Labubu!

In other news, today's podcast features yours truly with something that's been on my mind this month. Dear entrepreneur and small business owner, I’m not going to tell you what everyone else will tell you, but this is what I learned from finally hitting 6-figures.

Have you gotten your Swan City Promo Card?!

Chicken Bacon Ranch is an independent girl who loves to play and is super social with other kitties! We think that the high traffic environment at Botany Cats isn’t her best fit, but we’ve seen her playful and silly personality shine through in quiet and slow moments. She’d be a great match for someone who is patient and happy to watch CBR’s personality unfold for them, especially if they already have other cats 💖

That's A Wrap!

I can't believe it's almost September! That means another busy season is upon us!

I'm afraid of how much I will need to fit into this newsletter when the fall and winter events start popping up!

Anyways, hope to see you this Saturday! If not, the next newsletter drop is Tuesday :)

This Week's Welcome I'm going to keep this week's welcome quite short but important! This Saturday made up for the past crazy month! The market was our biggest yet! Thank to all the vendors that joined us, and of course, to all the folks who came out and supported local! Thank you very much for making it a busy-busy Saturday :) Our next indoor market is this coming Saturday! We will be back at the Black Swan Venue from 8am-12pm! This weekend is about 50/50. Half of the vendors you've come to...

This Week's Welcome Well, our last Friday night market got a bit rained out 🥴 But we were inside, not soaked, and the air was super cold! Thanks to the vendors that came out and the folks that did brave the storms to come eat and shop! Our next two indoor markets return to Saturdays! We will be back at the Black Swan Venue from 8am-12pm each date. I highly recommend you come out and support! These next two dates are full to the brim with vendors! Some you know and some I bet you don't. So,...

Happy Friday! As Phil Collins says, "Tonight, tonight, tonight!" We're going to be back at the Black Swan Venue TONIGHT from 5pm-9pm! I heard it might rain this afternoon or evening, so come inside and don't get wet! That's another great thing about indoor markets :) Grab some dinner from The Baked Butcher, get some dessert, and come out to show your support for these wonderful vendors and small businesses of LKLD! I know they'd appreciate it as the heat and rain are cancelling many markets...
