We're on Etsy!
Howdy — happy back to school season!
I hope you had an excellent summer. I didn't get a pontoon boat, but logged some hours on one, so it could be worse!
(i'm not proud of it either)
I've been busy working on things that actually make me money, so it's been slow progress-wise over at team Donut Hole-der over the summer. Katie made us look like real pro's over on Instagram, and you should follow and check out some fun stuff we've posted. Here's my favorite:
Aside from that, I had a moment of manic energy and created this monstrosity. It's based off the funnel ball games you see on playgrounds and my toddler loves it:
Want one? Hit me up.
Status Report
We're currently at 82 preorders, and I thank all of you for helping out! However, that's not enough for me to justify dropping nearly $15k on a production order of these bad larries. Instead, I've decided to do something a bit kooky.
We're on Etsy!
Yeah, Etsy. That site your Aunt uses to buy hand crocheted gnomes made from cat hair. That one. Turns out there's a lot of Dunkin' related stuff on there.
(Dunks doesn't even sell cans)!
Luckily, I have enough 3D printers at my disposal to crank out some parts. Sure, they lack the polish of an injection molded final design, but it allows me to get these units into more hands and hopefully spread the good word of Donut Hole-ding. Check it out here!
(You can even use Klarna to buy it in 4 easy payments… What a world!)
Here's where you can help!
- Share it with your friends!
- Buy one!
- Use it and give me feedback / take pics
(If you preordered and wish to get one on Etsy please reach out and I'll send you a promo code for 50% off. That's far more than your $1 preorder, because I respect you)
I haven't given up on my dreams and want to manufacture these at scale. I do need to prove to myself and my financial advisor that this isn't the worst investment I have made recently (hello, Taylor Farms stock!)
Let's get this featured on Etsy or something cool!
