History of The Business
The business was founded in 2009 when Nadia was sitting in her room waiting to all night to buy a limited edition Fortnite skin and when she went onto the website to check again, the skin had been sold out. She was tired of this always happening to her so she decided to make her own store so she could gain early access to these limited edition games and add ons. The name ‘
Game Line’ generated from that night as she thought she was in front of the line to buy the add on but was in fact at the back of the long line. She then started her business at only 19 years old at the time and was selling games and other tech such as phones and pc’s in the back of a van, at this time her ‘business’ had no name and she was just known as ‘the game lady’. She also offered a service where she fixed things such as phones and pc’s to make some extra money. Her business was thriving until most of her customers started going to stores to buy their goods and services, it was then, that she decided to take her van business to a store and actually founded the business and its name. She first started out in a rundown building but was determined to make her shop aesthetically pleasing to all of her customers. After many inspirational ideas she had made a portfolio of things she wished to include into her store, she worked and worked until she was proud of her store and thought it was perfect. It seemed everyone else noticed too as when she was finally finished decorating, she had been receiving many more customers. She was very happy working in her store for years until she came across the idea of putting her business on social media as she believed it would bring her more customers. None of her friends and family believed that she could make her business a success and encouraged her not to try and make a business, this only made her even more determined. Now she has a store which is running really well and she has made her parents proud.
