I hate waste. Ask my husband, he will tell you there is so little food waste in this house, I always try to buy second-hand before buying new and I wear the same clothes and footwear for years on end. So when you buy gospel goods from the ATE shop, it takes a bit longer than you might be used to. Why? Well, I believe it's a responsible decision to make products on-demand instead of in bulk. This means that as soon as you place an order, we start creating your product specifically for you. It may take a little extra time, but trust me, it's worth it! There are several reasons why I chose this approach.
- Reducing overproduction: By making products on demand, we can significantly reduce overproduction. Traditional manufacturing often leads to excessive production, resulting in wasted resources and unsold inventory. I want to minimize environmental impact by only producing what is actually wanted. This way, I can help create a more sustainable future (hello Genesis 1:28).
- Ensuring quality: When I create products on demand, I have complete control over the production process. Each item is carefully crafted with attention to detail, ensuring the highest level of quality. I want you to receive a product that exceeds your expectations and brings you joy for years to come.
- Supporting thoughtful purchasing decisions: By choosing to make products on demand, you are making a thoughtful purchasing decision. You are actively participating in reducing waste and supporting sustainable practices. I appreciate your conscious choice and want to express my gratitude for being a part of this positive change.
So, the next time you place an order on the shop and wonder why it takes a bit longer, remember that it's because we are creating something unique just for you. I believe in the power of personalized products and the positive impact they can have on both you and the environment. Thank you for your patience and for making a difference with your small biz purchase!
