A bone head mistake.

      Have any of you made a bone head mistake? We all have but are you willing to admit it? The truth will set you free if you just admit your mistake and just move on. Once you make a mistake it is your duty to help others learn from it. I feel this is the price you pay to make things better for the mistake you made. So with out any further fan fare please read my bone head mistake below. :) 

 

     When I built my site I weighed every product carefully and put in the weight exactly as it was. Then when a customer placed an order I could not figure out why I was losing money on that order. Well after a lot of finger pointing at many differnt people the problem was this. I did not take into account what the weight of the product was when it was packed up. Product+box=weight should be the simple formula when you set your site up. I wish I did not over look this simple but very important part of my web site. So please take a moment and think about your product weight after it is packed up.

 

     Please feel free to share your own bone head mistakes here so I can  feel better about myself.  No laughing and looking down your nose at me about this mistake is allowed until I leave the room. :)

 

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
