Bagonia

It’s technically the start of a new work week. But our days and weeks tend to meld together. Day off? What’s that? Yesterday Nichole represented Bagonia at the Farmer’s Market in Hillcrest to help raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society through Team In Training. Our friend Jim is training for the Lavaman triathlon in Hawaii on March 29 and for the month of February we will donate a portion of each Bagonia sale to his fundraising.

Anyway, back to the market. Several people noticed the bags from the news, which was encouraging and exciting. Hopefully the recognition will continue to pour in and we’ll raise a lot of money for LLS.

Today we are working some more on our business plan. The boring stuff. The mandatory details that we don’t like to think about, but will be the backbone behind our successful venture. So we better leave you alone so we can get to work.

By the way… We noticed that we had over 300 hits on our blog last Friday. Keep reading! And feel free to leave comments. We won’t bite. Maybe just a nibble. You can also follow us on Twitter. Username: her_niche.

Nichole’s livingroom has become the headquarters for Her Niche. It’s a cozy place, roomy enough for all three of our computers (a PC laptop, a Mac Book Pro, and a Dual Processor G5 Macintosh tower). Somehow the room seems about ten times smaller when Noah is here juggling Bakugans and nicknaming each of his toes (Targee, Juvie, Owl, Midget, and Sailor Jack). But, the show must go on. Today’s agenda…

- Update this here blog since we know you are all dying to subscribe.

- Upload our interview from CW Channel 6.

- Send out some pitches

- Master Bakugan transformation

- Celebrate Aloha Friday

What can we say? We’re suckers for cheesy eggs.

We had a late night last night. Into the wee hours of the morning. But we shouldn’t complain because it was productive, positive, and definitely gave us some food for thought. We attended a meeting with the Eco Investment Club and met with some very smart and inspiring individuals who spoke about the future of green companies in relation to investors and consumer trends. It was fascinating, informative, and quite frankly a lot of fun. Which is why we are so tired today!

Adriana spoke at FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising) this morning about one of the Her Niche products. We are being featured in a branding class as a semester project for the students. They will come up with a marketing plan, brand identity, logo, etc. for our next product that will be launching later this year. We can’t tell you what it is because our key to world domination is locked in the vault.

We’ve been connected with a top notch web and branding company called Namtra Media. They will possibly be working with us on getting our websites going in exchange for our interpretive dance skills and a home-cooked meal. Only kidding… Kind of. So now we eat and drink and make site maps. Fascinating, I know.

We are both feeling extremely ill but made plans last night to meet at 9:30 a.m. What were we thinking?  So far we’ve broken two rules today and are ready to take on the world…Yes, we took the breakfast nook were it says no working allowed and absolutely no adults can order from the kids menu - I don’t think so.  Mmmmm, cheesy eggs.  Now to get down to biz nas…

To Do Today:

-  Prioritize media distribution list

-  Prioritize investor relation outreach

-  Work on the nitty gritty of biz plan

-  Not die from our colds
