Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Belle Martin, Owner of Fiestas & Siestas, located in La Mesa, CA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Teaching people to create daily rituals for celebration and rejuvenation in a busy world. Busy, driven women who know they need to add some fun self-care in order to live a full, joyous life.
Tell us about yourself
I've been a professional dancer since I was 14. I have taught dance and choreographed since 25. It has only been in the past few years that I decided to reach out to a broader audience than professional dancers because of all of the women who would approach me and say, "I wish I could dance."
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Determining that my audience wants a broader service than dance. They want to have reasons to celebrate and to rejuvenate. Dance is just one of those reasons.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Determining the product-market fit.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
Test, test, and test your product-market fit. Don't just assume that because you do something, people want to pay for it.
