Tell us about yourself
I have always been great with children. My passion for teaching and playing with kids is the reason I do what I love every day. At first, I got into face painting because I wanted to do something fun with kids. Like, I wanted to be able to add a creative activity to teaching and my fun ways of learning. I learned that face paint was the number 1 activity. I just kept growing the business once I saw the need for Party services. I initially learned for the kids at school, but parents started requesting me to do parties. I saw how many parties come in a weekend, so I decided to reach out to Party rental companies and introduce myself. I networked with them; they brought me more clients, and just the power of the fact that I taught myself a new skill and manifested the idea of keeping smiles on kids' faces, everything else kind of fell in line. I didn't go against what was already working; before I knew it, my hustle turned into a business.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment was growing and maintaining a business with no business background. The hustle turned into a business.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Some of the hardest things are figuring out everything on your own. The experience of not knowing who to take advice from, how to find someone with the knowledge needed to advance, and staying focused even when I didn't see whether I was coming or going.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Do as much research as you can about the business field.
- Start small and advance. Use what you have until you have what you need.
- Have faith, believe, and look for things that are unseen. #StayFocused.
