Welcome!

Whether you're just thinking about starting a gifting company, or you've taken the leap and want to level up, I'm so glad you're here!

I want to be the resource that I wish I’d had when I had started this amazing journey- someone to talk to about reaching out to wholesalers, which products to choose, how to price my gifts, how to land those first few customers, how to work social media, how to find great products, and how the heck shipping works. I’ve put together downloads and resources that would have saved me hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars- I hope they do the same for you!

the deal

You may have seen Teak & Twine shipped a huge order of graduation gifts for George Washington University this spring. This awesome project really pushed us to refine some of our production processes and get serious about our pre-production processes, too… you know, all the little things that need to be done before you can truly get started on making and shipping a product!

There are a few books I recommend to entrepreneurs and product-based business owners over and over. These are the books that line my shelves and that I pick up time and time again!

If you're thinking about working with a professional photographer for the first time, or if you're simply looking to make your product photo shoots more efficient and more productive, there are several things you can do to set yourself up for success and get awesome photos.

If you’re like I used to be, and the thought of conducting a SWOT analysis seems silly or makes you feel like you’re back in school, I especially encourage you to stick with it. I’ve seen so many positive results at Teak & Twine, and I’m so confident it will help...

In the past 4 months, our team has grown by seven full-time team members and five contractors... Experts don't typically recommend growing a team this quickly, but I'm so glad I did.

Whether you’re producing and shipping products out of your home or you work in a big warehouse, there are a few very easy things you can do to make your production space an awesome place to work.

After working out of a doctor's office for more than six months, we decided it's time to upgrade our warehouse. Teak & Twine is on the move again!

Oh hey there!

Knock knock! Hi, it’s me, Torrance! Your business bestie! I heard you needed help so I just came on over with a six pack of the hoppiest beer I could find and some Taco Bamba. I love excel spreadsheets and numbers and sales and corporate strategy and marketing and analytics (yep, I’m weird like that!).
