Ready for Valentine Season: Sidney Imports’ Heart and Love Rings

— Contributed by Joy Garcia I own and manage a small online jewelry business. My main products are sterling silver rings, and I chose this type of jewelry because for one, silver rings are affordable, and two, they are available in so many designs.

I love this company because they have a wide array of ring designs, fast shipping, and excellent customer service. Even during shelter-in-place measures, I was able to have quick and seamless transactions … Continue reading Ready for Valentine Season: Sidney Imports’ Heart and Love Rings

Affordable LED’s Take-Out Sign

— Contributed by Paige Smith-Vasquez My husband and I own a small food business that offers Filipino food. The business was great, but the pandemic happened. I didn’t want to close the restaurant for good, so my husband and I decided to temporarily stop accepting dine-in orders and just focus on take-out orders. We did announce this decision on our Facebook page, but people still kept coming hoping to dine in our restaurant. I knew we had to get a take-out sign. I made one using a piece of cardboard and Sharpie, but it had a short life when it … Continue reading Affordable LED’s Take-Out Sign

Sidney Imports: The Best Supplier of Sterling Silver Jewelry Sets

— Contributed by Naomi Kindell I have been in the jewelry business for almost a decade now. I started with a pop-up shop, and now I sell online as well. Ever since the pandemic began, I surprisingly received even more orders. My customers’ favorite? The sterling silver jewelry sets. My previous supplier unfortunately does not sell sets, so I handpick each piece to create bundles. This consumes time and effort, and I don’t get much profit from them because I sell sets at a lower price. So I needed to look for a new wholesale jewelry supplier. Sidney Imports was recommended by … Continue reading Sidney Imports: The Best Supplier of Sterling Silver Jewelry Sets

Eco-Friendly Hinged Containers from Restaurant Smart

— Contributed by Amy Brown I manage a green pop-up vegan burger business, and it has been a goal for my staff and me to lessen our plastic waste and carbon footprints. That is why I make sure to only use recyclable and compostable containers for take-out orders. When the pandemic happened, we shifted from a pop-up business to an exclusive food delivery service. That meant stocking up on more biodegradable hinged containers. Lucky for us, the business continued to thrive even amidst a health crisis. My supplier, Restaurant Smart, sells my favorite brand of compostable hinged containers — Bagasse, … Continue reading Eco-Friendly Hinged Containers from Restaurant Smart

Nile Corp Paper Gift Bags

— Contributed by Cher Garcia This pandemic was kind of a blessing to my business because I noticed the rise in sales since the shelter-in-place measures rolled out. I guess people have now become confident in shopping for jewelry online. With the rise in demand, I needed more paper gift bags for packing the jewelry. Nile Corp is my supplier for jewelry display. I use the display for product shots and not for a window display since I only operate online, and I’m quite impressed with them. They have it in burlap, velvet, and metal, which is my favorite. I … Continue reading Nile Corp Paper Gift Bags

Leveling up the Gaming Room with LED Lighting

— Contributed by Matt Brown Because of the pandemic and the stay-at-home measures, I had a lot of time to play video games and redecorate our gaming room. The plan was to add some LED lighting and a scrolling LED sign for a futuristic feel. Good thing Affordable LED was open for business during the quarantine.  I only needed a small indoor-type one, so I purchased the 2×14 single line sign, the smallest one on the website. It was on sale too, lucky me! The S-Series indoor sign was the perfect size, and I installed it on the wall across … Continue reading Leveling up the Gaming Room with LED Lighting
