Journal Entry 002 — The Big Launch 🚀
By Holly, co-founder of Pebbl Innovations
We launched. We held our breath. And… things didn’t go quite as planned.
No fireworks. No inbox crashing from too many orders. Just a quiet ping — three sales.
Honestly? It stung a little.
🧠 Reality Check
We poured months into designing something we believed in — ✨ small, sleek, and nothing like those clunky cable reels on Amazon. But launch day? Crickets.
So we took a pause. Breathed. Reflected.
💭 What we realised:
- We’re not a VC-backed startup (yet).
- We can’t afford massive marketing campaigns, so we need to build genuine community through free social platforms.
- And most importantly — we’re just getting started.
💡 So… we made a few changes:
We asked ourselves: How can we make Pebbl more personal? More joyful? More… us?
And that’s when the smiley face happened. 🙂 A small change — but one that made it feel different. A little burst of warmth on your desk.
🎨 Oh — and new colours. Meet the fresh lineup:
- 🖤 Matte Black – for the minimalists
- 🍵 Pine & Olive Green – for the grounded nature lovers
- 🤍 Stone White – for clean aesthetic setups
- 🌊 Sky Blue – for the calm creators
Final thought 🤔
The launch didn’t blow up — but it did give us clarity. We’re proud. We’re still building. And we’re still here — one smiley-faced Pebbl at a time.
Until next time — “Just start. And it’ll click”. 🤍
