Since the advent of COVID-19, this down-time has been my prep time and just the thing I needed to finally get this vision out of my head and into my hands \u2013 and into the hands of young teens and tweens everywhere!\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cThis was something I could do from home and generate additional income, perhaps even a substantial livelihood for my future and the future of my own daughter. And I could do all this while stimulating and encouraging the hearts and minds of girls around the world.\u201d<\/p><p>As a result, her monthly subscription boxes contain a variety of items all aimed at boosting the confidence of young girls through puzzles, activities, and reading materials to stimulate and engage their growing hearts and minds.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section><section class=\"bde-section-836-118 bde-section\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<div class=\"section-container\"><h2 class=\"bde-heading-836-119 bde-heading\">\nGetting in Touch with Packola\n<\/h2><div class=\"bde-rich-text-836-120 bde-rich-text breakdance-rich-text-styles\">\n<p>In transit, each subscription box must be sturdy and resilient enough to resist rough handling on the road or in a cargo hold so that its contents can reach customers safe and sound. At the same time, they also need to look good in order to reinforce the brands that they carry in customers\u2019 minds. In sourcing for a box supplier she could truly rely on, Patterson stumbled upon Packola during her search for a <a href=\"https:\/\/packola.com\/products\/mailer-box\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">customized mailer box.<\/a><\/p><p>\u201cAs I was searching online for a company to produce our boxes and sampling several others, I found that [Packola\u2019s] pricing, easy to use design app, and great feedback gave me the confidence I needed to finally make a decision to go with Packola,\u201d Patterson recalls. \u201cThe turn-around on production was great and the boxes look exactly the way they were designed to look on the website!\u201d<\/p><p>Packola helps small businesses like Sarah\u2019z Girlz make their mark on their customers through high-quality custom packaging that truly sets them apart from the competition.<\/p><p>Do you have your own #PackolaStory to tell?
