Tell us about yourself
At 21 years old, I worked for a media start-up company. Wearing numerous hats on a day-to-day basis allowed me to grow in every direction possible. My responsibilities ranged from developing affiliate programs for collaborators, conducting extensive market research, creating targeted digital media, assisting with numerous productions, and even dabbling in hosting and modeling. It was a whirlwind of execution. That position refined my problem-solving skills and ultimately gave me the confidence to start a company.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Working with genuine people that are passionate about what they do! Every day is different in my industry. One day we can be filming the inside of an operating room, and the next, we're backstage at a music festival. That diversity allows us to connect with fascinating people almost daily!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
The beginning phase is always difficult. Building a company from the ground up is no joke!
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Make sure there is a need for your product or service.
- Don't be afraid to ask for advice or help.
- Build your network.
