Hi everyone ,
I was having some PGC ( Pearly gym chalk ) withdrawals, and so I decided to make a plain Jane compilation for you all while sharing a little bit of my journey with this chalk.
If you are new here, let me bring you up to speed. Once upon a time, about 2 years ago, I contacted a supplier in China and asked them to produce perfect chalk by ASMR standards, and they delivered. I branded the chalk, created a store, and shared this goodness with you, my viewers.
Those were trying times, I swear. Being a one-man team was not easy. The ASMR community showed this chalk so much love, but behind the scenes, it was stressful to keep up. I was barely getting 3 hours of sleep every night. Keep in mind that I was selling reforms about 6 months prior to this. Anyway, in the middle of this, my manufacturer completely switched the formula, and I didn't realize until after I had bought several cartons. I was so disappointed and started looking for other suppliers. I found a few others, but they eventually changed the formula as well. It was stressful not being sure what I was going to be selling to my buyers, and so I decided to close my store.
Overall, it was a huge learning process. I had a crash course in customer service, learned about international shipping laws, had an entire USPS office shut down because they thought the chalk was “something else” and most especially, I made many friends who supported my business.
If I ever had to sell chalk again, there are so many things I would do differently. Unfortunately, at this point in my life, I no longer have the time to run a store. However, if there are any of you looking to sell gym chalk and would like a detailed information session and some tips, I am willing to offer that service to you at a fee. (Reach out to me on IG)
All that to say, I am still in love with PGC, and I love how close it brought me to you, my viewers. Thanks to everyone who ever purchased from my store . Shout out to all the resellers in the gym chalk community. I know what you go through and will support as many of you as my budget allows.
Enough of this rambling.
love you all
Pearly
