Who doesn’t love cookies? 🍪 We do! 😍 Recently, we had the opportunity to redesign the Our Cookie House website and transform it into a membership site for cookie enthusiasts 🎉✨

◾URL: https://ourcookiehouse.com

◾Location: Our Cookie House, 8530 W. Gage Blvd., Suite D, Kennewick, Washington 99336

◾The Concept: The design of Our Cookie House's website was intentionally crafted to balance modern aesthetics with a warm, inviting atmosphere that reflects the comfort of homemade cookies. The contemporary layout ensures ease of navigation and a polished user experience, while the use of teal as an accent color was chosen specifically to evoke feelings of tranquility and approachability, reinforcing the brand's welcoming nature. The addition of a membership site with subscription options was strategically implemented to foster long-term customer engagement, encouraging repeat business through recurring cookie deliveries or exclusive content. This approach not only enhances brand loyalty but also provides a seamless way for customers to integrate Our Cookie House's offerings into their routines.

Google’s recent shift toward incorporating AI into search results—specifically through the Search Generative Experience (SGE)—has fundamentally altered the way information is presented to users. While it’s being touted as a step forward in improving the search experience, this AI-driven approach is wreaking havoc on small business owners, bloggers, and even established websites.

How Google’s AI Search is Impacting SEO and Traffic Google’s SGE uses advanced AI algorithms to generate instant answers to search queries, pulling information from various sources and summarizing it right at the top of search results. While this might seem like a convenience for users, it’s posing a significant challenge to the websites that onc...

🚨 Online Business Scams: Shopify, Dropshipping, and Print-on-Demand

After 26 years in business, I’m seeing more people fall victim to online business scams. It’s devastating. Most of these scams are around Shopify, Dropshipping, and Print-on-Demand.

Recently, I spoke to:

🔹 A company convinced a local Boise man truck driver in his 70's to pay $10K to open a Shopify store for dropshipping—convinced him that it would bring him early retirement.

🔹 An artist I know paid hundreds for an online class that convinced him to spend thousands more on a website to sell prints, with promises he could quit his job.

💸 The Hard Truth:

Customer acquisition through Facebook ads has increased 222% in the last five years.

Most successful e-commerce stores require at least $20,000 in startup capital (excluding inventory).

82% of dropshipping stores never recover their ad spend.

Those “gurus” selling online business courses? 90% of their income comes from selling courses—not e-commerce.

Warning Signs of Online Business Scams

“Guaranteed Success” – No one can promise success. Real business takes effort and risk.

“Quick and Easy Money” – True success takes time, not days or weeks.

Hidden Costs – Watch for downplayed expenses like ads, service, and upkeep.

“Secret Formula” Claims – There’s no magic formula – just hard work and real strategy.

Urgency to Buy – Pressure to “act now” is a red flag. Legit opportunities wait.

I hope this helps. 😍 It's hard not wanting to find a way to make things easier on ourselves financially in this hard time - however, this is not the way. Happy New Year!

Online Business Scams: Shopify, Dropshipping, and Print-on-Demand I need to talk about something that’s been weighing heavily on my mind. Every day, I see more people falling for what I call the “digital gold rush” – the seductive world of Shopify stores, dropshipping ventures, and print-on-demand businesses.
