DIARY OF A START UP BUSINESS OWNER
<p>DIARY OF A START UP BUSINESS OWNER. </p><p></p><p>Finally I did what I had to do. </p><p>Well, welcome back to my series of documenting my life as a start up business owner. </p><p>I think I remember saying I'm a crochet artist (upcoming) and God knows I have no idea how I'm gonna go about it. </p><p></p><p>On the 20th of November, I found courage to start with nothing but my wits, ideas and zero equipment at all.</p><p></p><p>Honestly, I got tired of waiting around and I got excited ( a little bit more than I should) I started with posting on my social media accounts for publicity. I think I had this idea that whenever a project comes I'll be prepared. I guess I forgot that stuffs like this need an already done piece to show that I know my groove.</p><p></p><p>Well, I wasn't let my lack of equipment stop my from getting out there. I had already told my friends and make them promise they'll patronize me so 22nd of November I got my first deal (my friend obvs), I was so excited to start so I spent my entire profit on getting makeshift equipments and extra yarn for chill businesses for myself. </p><p></p><p>I'm still shocked on how good it turned out and the fact that I had this talent hidden inside me for so long. </p><p></p><p>Although it seems like that's the only deal I've gotten in a while and publicity is a strain. My best girl would always remind me that life is a marathon, not a sprint and looking back to the last post I read (I don't think I recall the writer), she said something about doing it because of her love for it and not the money.</p><p></p><p>With this guides, I think I'll sail smoothly although there are times I can help but get overwhelmed but looking to people who support me and want to see me win, I'm instantly encouraged.</p><p></p><p>By the way I think I forgot to mention the fact that I'm juggling this with my career as a law student with a below maximum CGPA as expected of me.</p><p></p><p>Begining school, I know I started off on a rough foot and I'm trying to be optimistic but then let's face reality, I didn't boost early and it's affecting me. I know I'm gonna be great and with God on my side, my efforts cannot be in vain.</p><p></p><p>I guess this is all for today's session of Life as a Startup Business Owner. I think I should add "...And Struggling Student." just saying. </p><p></p><p>Bye guys....till next time.</p><p></p>
