Finally getting back into the swing of things

Well from a lot of procrastination on my behalf and just general life and family commitments, we are back into the jerky and Pork Crackle making. I am still waiting on some building materials for the commercial kitchen, but when you can source things for free or massively reduced price I’m happy to wait. The only drama is that I can’t run enough equipment, so the amount of stock getting made in a batch is greatly reduced. Which only means I just have to put more time in to the production side of things than I normally would have too.

I’m also looking at how to use this website better so I can sell directly from pjsjerky.com which will cut down going backwards and forwards in emails and on Facebook, to sort out payments, addresses and what products are to be ordered. But at the same time I have to remember this is only a hobby, and not a job! Its more to keep me occupied more than anything, and also it’s all to benefit my kids, so that I can help out my kids now and in the future. It’s just like my post on Facebook awhile ago, supporting local and small businesses means that kids can go to hockey practice, dancing lessons, holidays and pay the bills for the family.

This year, although I might be a bit behind! I intend to promote my products more!! By attending markets, shows and whatever else I can do. I’m always open to new stockists, so if you have a business or know of someone or business that might like to sell our products please contact me via the email pjsjerky@gmail.com I’m also looking at sample packs to sell to future customers that are not local to the central west NSW area, so that they can taste my product in a small amount, and from there once they see and taste how good the products are, people can order what they want without having to break the bank, then they are about to but the product that is best suited to their tastes. As not everyone has the same tastes as the next, these samples will only be offered via the website pjsjerky.com once i have the on line shop set up.

Now don’t forget we ship all of our products, we use Australia Post. However due to my rural location postage can take awhile, so if you start to run low of your supply it would pay to order before you run out. And hopefully in the future I might do a vlog every one and a while, once I have the kitchen up and running. I have many more ideas for PJ’s Jerky and hopefully I should be able to tackle them this year or start doing some research into them.

Once again thanks for you support, you can purchase from @farmgate_butchery in Orange and hopefully a few old stockists will come on board.
