Therapy In EVERY Aroma - Scent.Therapy
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in candle-making but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Tiara Bosley, founder of Scent.Therapy, located in Detroit, MI, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
My business is a luxury aromatherapy and home essentials company. I focus on providing Therapy with every aroma created & my customers are the men and women that enjoy a great fragrance in the form of a luxury candle, premium wax melt, or long-lasting room mist.
Tell us about yourself
I started making candles in 2016 as a hobby because I could never find candles that were long-lasting. It eventually turned into a business because it became something that I loved to do, and my friends and family enjoyed the items that I would make for them. Now, since Scent.Therapy has become a big part of my life as well as friends and family, I'm motivated to keep striving to become a bigger business, and new ideas come to me daily.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment as a business owner would have to be making it to my five-year mark. Where I'm from, a lot of small businesses don't make it past the first year, so for me, as of right now, making it to year five is huge! I'm sure as a business owner, my biggest accomplishment will change, but as of right now, I'm happy with what it is.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
One of the hardest things that come with being a business owner would have to be being your own cheerleader and not getting discouraged when things don't go as planned. I have to remember to always stay focused on what the goal is, and that is for Scent.Therapy to be one of the biggest home essential & aromatherapy companies in the Nation!
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Never allow anyone else's doubt to stop you from starting.
- If you don't start, how will you know what the outcome will be? So just start the business!!
- Always remain positive no matter the circumstance because a positive attitude will get you further than a negative one.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
Being a business owner has its ups and downs, but I wouldn't change them for anything because it has allowed me to grow and learn from my mistakes. I'm grateful for the opportunity to be able to create products that people love & I Thank you so much for reaching out to me for this interview. I look forward to reading it!
