My mom started selling her homemade sweets online last month. 41 orders later, here's what actually worked and what flopped

From r/StartUpIndia: A few weeks ago I posted here about my mom, who makes sweets at home in Rajasthan, and how we'd just put them online. A lot of you ordered, commented and gave feedback, so here's an honest update. What worked Reddit itself. Most of our first 8-10 orders came from people who read the story here.
