I am so excited to announce my grand re-opening on January 22nd! I cannot think of a better way to re-open than to celebrate other small businesses and local talent. Come out and shop, get some tasty food, hear some good music, mix and mingle and promote your own business. So, if you are a small business definitely bring cards, samples etc. to grow your business as well. Welcome to your new creative community!🤗🙌🤝
We are officially closed to start the process of moving to the new location. It is definitely bittersweet.🥲Sometimes I have to remind myself of my reasons to keep going when I’m tired and remember that if everything always went as planned I would miss soooo many opportunities to learn and grow. Definitely embracing these ups and downs as a necessary part of the process. When you build from the ground up no one can take that from you…..the next time we meet we will be in our new space😊❤️
While i’m on memory lane…It’s only right to acknowledge and give appreciation the people who has played a major role and dealt with the chaos of business growing pains and my overactive creativity (aka slight OCD & ADHD) 😂. I love y’all.
Nov 2020 I opened my first storefront knowing nothing about business during the pandemic! The first store was an old church, I made faux walls with reused cubicle panels painted with blue spray paint and donated curtains.There was burgandy carpet and painted plyboard walls. All of my furniture and displays were purchased second-hand from FB Marketplace; painted, stained and repurposed. I opened before having most of my machines or knowing how to use them. These last two years has drastically changed my perspective on learning who I am, my strengths, my weaknesses, humility, figuring it out, persistence and allowing myself to chase the life I really desire😌 Dont let the feeling of not having all you WANT keep you from realizing that you already have or have the ability to obtain all you NEED! 💫
Confirmation is when obstacles shift into opportunities✨Let’s start this Creative Community shall we?😊
Re-opening update: My main goal for initially opening Craft Ave has always been to help other people who would like to turn their love for whatever their craft, passions or skills are into paychecks. This jump from my “kinda safe” career into entrepreurship hasn’t been easy to say the least but for whatever reason I’ve become addicted to this journey and all the lessons that has come with it and working to get better at it. I’m so excited to get back to my original goals of teaching and helping others grow thier small businesses through creative branding and ultimately create a real Creative Community for Entrepreneurs. I’m hoping along the way someone will be encouraged to chase whatever ambitions they may have of thier own. So the update is…it will be a bit longer till we reopen. But when we do….. ull be invited 😊 (Tip… sneak peek at the end🤫😉😊))
So I’ve learned these social media algorithms are much like a diet or working out. Consistently and frequently is the key 🔑 to getting your products in front of more people or else you will have to keep restarting from the beginning. So don’t let life, minor setbacks or even bad days stop your progress in growing your business. A little copy and paste here or there won’t hurt🤷🏽♀️. Go ahead and feed the algorithm while reminding your customers why they love you. 😊lol.
Do not be alarmed…occasional set backs are inevitable. With every challenge is an opportunity. We will back soon.
Well…i’m definitely deleting some of my designs .Y’all be safe out there!!!
I’m hoping that as I share my experiences I can start a trend of sharing information as small businesses. These are just a few of business insurance types. Definitely research to see what is most suitable for your industry to keep you fully protected. Share below 👇🏾. If you know more about the topic.
