Business is not for ladies ?
Being the “girls team”, we often find ourselves asking the question if starting our own business is something we will be able to pull off. To help everyone cheer up and keep up the team spirit, we are sharing our top tips !
💗 Importance of Days Off and Holidays
When starting your own business, we often get overworked without even realising it. You keep on thinking about your products, design , production, packaging and all the other hundred things you need to do that you could find yourself mentally exhausted.
Here at Hot Pie Craft we are trying to stick to at least 1 day off a week, when we are not talking about work, and not touching the sewing machine ( although it is very hard because sewing is also our hobby )
💗 Remember why you started
Do you remember that day when you finally decided to take the leap of faith and opened your own shop // cafe // restaurant // company ? Why you did it?
Was it because you wanted to share your vision with he world? Or you wanted to be your own boss and do things how you think is the best ?
Whatever might be your reason, when hitting a rockbottom it is extremely important to sit back and to remember why you started.
💗 Reach out for support
Supportive friends and family could be a massive source of extra motivation you are looking for. If at this very moment it is difficult to maintain contact with them, there are loads of internet based groups dedicated to providing support for female entrepreneurs. Check it out !
💗 Find your confidence
Sometimes you could find yourself drowning in all the advices, critiques, reviews and strategies that people are sharing with you.
For situations like that, we are trying to stick to our motto “Do well and it will be well”. We think that there is no standardised recipe for success and we all are on the way to finding our own unique path.
💗Friends and Bubbles
When we feel like nothing is working and everything is out of control - our personal advice is to put on the best dress you have, schedule a dinner with a good friend and have some bubbles. Giggles and good mood guaranteed :)
