You may have noticed we have been a little quiet over here! I launched NETT Exfoliator in December 2019, I had never had a business before, I didn’t even know that there was a difference between branding and a logo! I don’t come from a family of business people, I married into one and a few years ago, my little sister launched her business, which is still running incredibly successfully, but up until then, I didn’t have a huge desire to start or run a business - I was more of your corporate 9-5 girl and I loved it! However, all these factors (my husband’s family and my sisters business) encouraged me to start NETT Exfoliator and 2.5 years later, so much has happened that has absolutely blown me away.
Starting NETT answered a couple of questions for me: “could I come up with an idea, create a product, market it and sell it?” “Did I ahem what it took to run a business, not just physically and financially, but the confidence, to see put out my work despite what ‘people will say’? “Could I build something that would last and eventually be able to work for myself?” The process has taught me that I can. I have learnt so much during these last 2.5 years and met so many incredible people, some who I now call dear friends. However this process has also led me to my dream business / job.
I am no beauty aficionado, I love a good dinner party that brings people together and I love learning random things and taking my friends along to experience it with me (I’m look at you .okpa coming harvesting with us at the winery, as much as you hated it), I love drinking and pouring good wine and eating delicious food, I adore hosting people! On a more professional level, I love planning events, I love the process of putting an idea on paper and working the logistics for executing it, I enjoy the process of building processes and systems (most people hate it, I love it) That is what I have done for the last 11 years and since starting TYRO Studios, I have found my absolute passion in my OWN business.
