Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in jewelry and accessories but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with London Chandler, founder of The Muse Supply, located in Salt Lake City, UT, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I sell trendy & affordable jewelry and accessories. I love to keep up with current fashion trends. My customers are anyone who feels the same and doesn't want to break the bank.
Tell us about yourself
I started my business at 21 after working in E-Commerce for a few years. I'd always known I wanted to start my own business one day and work for myself, so I finally made that happen last January. Watching my business grow exponentially motivates me to keep going and keep reaching my goals.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My entire business, in general, is my biggest accomplishment. I am so proud of it and how hard I've worked to get to where I am. Making six figures in the first year was something I never thought was possible.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Maintaining a work-life balance. I can feel guilty when I take time off because the success of my business is completely up to me and how hard I work. I plan on hiring soon, so hopefully, that'll give me a better balance.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Just start!! Don't wait until it's perfect. You learn as you go.
- If you're passionate about what you do, work your hardest, and believe in yourself - you will succeed.
- Manifest! Make a vision board. Envision the exact life you want. This motivates me to keep going and working hard because I know what I'm doing it for.
