Breif monthly summary statements for income and expenses

March Income: $1,036.79 in direct sales of milkweed seeds. Amazon Affiliate income remains small. Payments processed thru Stripe are nearly double the PayPal express checkout. Site traffic was up which may have been due to the March Madness free seed giveaway event. It's to early to see a return on the plants that got potted up last fall. Awesome milkweed plants will be available for sale in May.
March Expenses: The highest single expense was an upgrade to the website at a cost of $368.74 which allows for inventory tracking of products. The service is paid up for the next two years. March Madness prizes caused expenses of $489.25. Giving away free things feels good so this expense was one of the easiest to make.
