Tell us about your business.

For the last three years I have been looking for the right time to open my online boutique. I started selling online when I was 16 years old. I decided to open this boutique filled with my own custom tees, onesies, and more.

How did you get started?

Basically, I needed extra money and it just grew from there.

What has been your hardest challenge of being a WAHM?

Finding a balance between time with the kids and time to work. Also getting my husband to assist me as he would if I were working a "real" job.

What has been your best method of promoting your business?

Word of mouth. I love my line and I love selling products. I am a big advocate for breastfeeding and breast cancer awareness and it shows in my work.

What are your goals with your business?

I am hoping to get this business off the ground and to finally make a decent income from it. More than that though I really would love everyone wearing my brand, and supporting breastfeeding.

What advice you have for moms who want to work at home?

Expect the unexpected while maintaining a positive attitude about your progress. Research your intended market so you know how to advertise to that particular demographic. Don't forget the little things that make your product/service memorable. NEVER forget that the most important thing in all this is staying home with our kids. Take advantage of this
privilege, not everyone is this lucky. Lastly never give up on your dreams. Anything worth dreaming is worth doing.
