Same 💓 I’m a small business owner & exactly in this moment my fiancé told me I should do it full time & not go to work 2mrw, so I’m like stuck with a decision to make today. I get constant messages of when I’m going to go live but I can’t sometimes because of my job. I get off at 4:30pm, but I have to drive to pick up my son from school & traffic is horrible so takes me 30-40min to get him. Then I drive another 30min to get my oldest from his job. He’s saving to buy a car. I am usually home by 6:45-7 & as soon as I get home I get dinner ready, then pack orders & check on the store (in between I’m eating 🥣 lol) & I go drop off packages before 9:30pm same day. I’m still in my work clothes & then I get home, shower, change and it’s rare I get on Netflix, watch tv…if I watch anything it’s videos like this so I can try to teach myself. Idk how to make my logo into a colored sticker at home or how to make thank you cards from home. I order everything on sticker mule but like most small business owners I try to cut down on cost. 😅 I hope she has a video on how to do this 🙏 I have a Jaden thermal printer I got on Amazon for my shipping labels, but it only does black & white unless I’m missing something…Do you have to buy another thermal printer that does color? I wish there was a private group where we can go ask each other these questions lol ❤💯

You put so much hard work in behind the scenes that ppl do not see to produce quality products. So many times I wanted to throw in the towel but this little voice in my head keep telling me “DON’T YOU DARE” no matter the struggle I continue to forage ahead. This is my DREAM. MY PASSION and my LOVE of creating. I know that my time will be my time so I remain patient, humble and hopeful, your story has INSPIRED me so much that I’ve watched your video FIVE times.

[@illadvisedrecords]

Honestly, with the sub count you have and the average view count on your videos, you could easily lean more into the YT content creation side of things and supplement your income quite a bit with ad revenue, all while marketing your brand. Relying on just sales is scary - diversifying your income streams is the way to go. Loving the content - helps me get in the mood to keep working on my own stuff. From one small business owner to another - keep it up!

This is mostly why most small businesses fail in the first 2 years. People try to do too much, get overwhelmed, and don't see it through if they hit failures. Just gotta remember to keep it simple, and we WILL fail here and there (just part of the process). People like this person succeed because they just shrug it off and find a better way to move forward.

I’ve been feeling to down lately because nobody showed up on my shop launch and got no orders.

Epic story. Well done. Zero talking in front of the camera. Had to pause and rewind and fast forward to read it all (I’m OCD like that). I’ve been selling my own clothing brands for over 10 years (Low Label). Doing things completely different than you in most ways. People ask me how I run my biz. I tell them how, but I also say there are a million ways to do it. This gave me some new ideas. And don’t worry, even after having success I still freak out and have anxiety during every launch, sale, Black Friday, pre-order, and vendor booth at events. It’s all an experiment, just focus on one day at a time and try to plan as best as you can for the future. Keep learning, stay humble, and find a way to laugh more and have fun. Sometimes I think I should get a regular job, and then I remember how far I’ve came on my own. From one biz person to another, keep doing your thing! 🙌🏼

[@MickeyInSD]

@THE LIFE OF MOBO The moment they congratulate, etc. is the moment you stop trying for better. That's often the mindset. Being over critical, amongst other characteristics lead them to be our bane and maybe even our rival. No one improves without a rivalry. The movie Joy Luck Club spells out a lot about Asian Mom's. I'm sure the book does the same, but I haven't read it yet.

[@jasonfrost5025]

@@MickeyInSD Doesn't mean it's healthy or even appropriate. I get that cultures have different expectations, and especially among many 1st generation immigrant parents who sacrifice their lives for their kids. That said, just being a loving parent can be significantly more beneficial and motivating. I haven't had any 2nd generation Asian American friends who appreciated their parents. They almost all resented them pretty deeply. Not all of them were materially successful either, so it's not like this perfect formula for success or progress. Sometimes just being kind and supportive will propel a kid (or person) into greater heights than being cold and calculated.

[@Mickey_De]

​@@jasonfrost5025 I agree. I think that all of us are limited to what we know, this includes our knowledge of how to be with our children. Some of us as humans learn to be different in our version of what we believe is better and we're lucky enough to be successful in the execution but most of us fail to be as nurturing, supportive, kind, etc. as we want to be. I think of @ernestomobojr's comment. Maybe their parents did not want to influence their child in anyway good or bad so that they can truly be their own authentic person. Maybe they didn't know any better. Maybe seeing their child in something like car racing or even be an athlete that could get hurt is terrifying. I remember that my Mom told me you should never bring a dish or drinks to a party as it says to the host that they are not good enough to throw a proper party without guest contributing. In the American culture you never go to a party empty handed because then you are not showing your appreciation to be part and contribute in a real way to the experience. This was eye opening as I cannot say either culture has the right or wrong idea. Now I can't say it didn't hurt when my parents were absent for my achievements, but I'm not sure if they knew any better. Also back then I was too considerate of their time to ask them to be there for me and too guarded and afraid to tell them what I was doing was important and I needed them to be there. I didn't know how to ask for so much, I just thought my parents should know that they should be there for me at games or whatever. But how could they? How could they know that something is special to me and I want them to experience my high when I succeed and to be there to console me when I fail? I understand that even with telling them, however, they still may not show for any number of reasons that have actually little to do with me and my feelings or everything to do with my feelings. Well thank you to anyone that read this novel. It helped me get my own perspective.

[@jasonfrost5025]

Kind of goes without saying (you'd think), but it is NEVER EASY. People making videos skip all the parts where they were broke and struggled to get things going. They just go straight to "here's my established process now." You're right to recognize that this is pretty much dishonest and misleading. Unless you're born into a family with money and physical space, starting a business is a grueling grind (mentally, financially, and physically). Many of us are working a full-time job in addition to our small operations. It's exhausting. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes it doesn't. I think what's most important (from my experience) is keeping it simple at the start and resisting the tendency to think about too many things. Take small steps each week to build off of. Keep telling yourself that you won't build a corporate empire overnight (no one has--ever). It takes time, sweat, and sometimes tears. Keep it simple, stick it through, and focus on what people and the planet actually want! You can do this!!!!

[@SkyBloodism]

I’m going through this current moment where I want to get my kids clothing business off of the ground on a full time job.

I empathize with you. I did the same 2 decades ago even before social media and at the beginning of selling online. The most important lesson I learned from it all is to take care of my health and put aside money (I can't touch) regularly no matter how small. In the end if everything fails, you've got your health and retirement money left. You can always do something else. You are giving it your best shot. That's all we can do in life. I wish you the very best.

Unsolicited advice, I know: It sounds a bit counterintuitive, but try not to do too many things at once. It's so easy to just get overwhelmed by thinking you have to do a thousand different things (we don't!). Just focus on baby steps and what works one at a time. I often find myself in this constant cycle of making progress but then being blasted by self-doubt, thinking I have to do all these major things and that I'll never make it when I compare myself to bigger brands. I just take a breath and tell myself that I'm not even there yet; worry about what matters most right now for my brand and customers. The rest will come later.

I think the problem for a lot of people is the lack of free time to dedicate to a business that is not guaranteed to work, which is a shame.

[@psycheinc-theSLC]

You are 'beyond' amazing. You've worked hard and continually do so at your craft and are constantly striving to learn new ways in order to work with ease and wisdom. What I have found during my years in the Media and my business etc, is that it is not necessarily the talented that rise to the top, there are many at the moment with no talent but yet get all the traction. However, that is short term and leaves no credible or lasting footprint - what you are doing is for the long term and you are very wise. You are a true role model and remember, to all that write and wish you well in the comments can see that you are incredible, you just need to believe that too. Embrace and balance yourself on what you perceive as the 'bad' days, because they are your teacher in how to balance your 'boat' - and when the good days appear you will see how the bad days were and are part of your incredible journey. Sending you an abundance of blessings Overthinker Apparel - you are simply 'one' of the very best out there. Psyche aka Psyche Thompson UK 🌹

This video was a great reminder to fight for your dreams and remain faithful even when you do not see nothing in front of you. Great video. I hope your business continues to thrive and may you be at peace.

[@chillbabecandleco]

As a small business myself (I haven't even launched yet), I really appreciate your vulnerability in sharing your ups and downs. It's inspiring to me and gives a way better picture of what being an entrepreneur is like. I wish you nothing but the best and I know you'll get through this next phase of growth. Keep going! xoxo J

[@josephinejacob5585]

I just stumbled on your video. As a student and upcoming entrepreneur it is hard buh this video really showed me how hard work pays🥺🥺. So am not going to give up anymore am going to try everything till I make it. You are amazing love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬

[@TheIsabellemira]

Thanks so much for sharing your story with us! I pressed pause so many times to read each word and watch all the details of your designs. You're a warrior!!!

[@soothestyle]

Never felt so genuinely happy and sad for a stranger. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Soul_Jornal]

Can we just talk about how strong you have been and faithful to your dreams. You did and are doing a really good job, keep going because you already proved yourself that anything is possible. I know it's hard, damn you made me and so many more cry with just this video. Don't put too much pressure on yourself be loving and inspirational to you. We don't need to find that no where else besides in one's self, I am learning that lesson too belive me. Loved your work genuinely, specially at a time I am also trying to find the couraged you had and hey it's your mom she will never be disappointed, she believes in you and clearly supports. At least that's what I just saw 🤗 Much love to you, your business and your mom. ❤️🦋

[@WithCielo]

I can totally empathize! My own shop failed. I’m rooting for you! Buying your merch right now and telling friends about you!

[@teragram19]

Good luck! I love your shop and have made 2 purchases. I think people would love to see more personal content about you! How you design the art, styling your items, etc. Also some things that may help: collab with other makers online, reduce prices, find a way to have the shop open longer, become more eco friendly with organic cotton... you have so many options and such a cute shop that is unlike any others. You got this! Life won't always be so hard.

[@tessa34738]

Girl! You’re an inspiration! I also have a small business with apparel and I quit my job and it seems to get good moments and then self sabotage comes in. I’m not where you are and have lots to learn tweak and grow but seeing your videos inspires me to keep going and that it’s possible! You’re stuff is so cute! You got this!

[@วัชราภรณ์พิบูลย์-ส4ช]

Thank you very much for your video. I'm thinking of starting my own small business. but afraid of failure After watching your video Makes me very inspired.

[@vikyv7056]

OMG I don't know you but I am so PROUD if you!! I find myself in a very similar situation as yourself and i am currently on working on creating something for myself as well and you ARE a great motivator. So, thank you.

This inspires me to not be lazy when I get home from my day job. This is definitely inspiring! It helps to see the ups & downs and know that it isn't just all rainbows & butterflies.

I never related to someone so much in my entire life 🥺 I also graduated with a degree in psychology, with a mediocre job (still haven’t found a job within my degree yet either 🤦🏾‍♀️) as a server & have a small business that I can’t seem to get enough exposure from , thanks for this video , I believe that it was meant for me to see this today as I was feeling a bit low from my failures , but I will never stop trying , thank you ❤I hope you see this comment & see that you are inspiring

Keep going 😊💪

[@cinthiaflores2302]

I am very surprised, a couple of months ago I saw one of your videos and I was fascinated with your work, it seems that it has been easy to get to where you are, but with this video you have shown us your hard work and your determination to fulfill your dreams. It's been very inspiring since you also started with an Iron, because I'm right at that point, frustrated that I screwed up the job. You have come very far and I hope you continue to grow, your followers will be here supporting you.

WE LOVE YOU! 🥹❤️Thank you for not giving up. You are stronger than you think.

[@workwithbaju5205]

Recently started my own small clothing business, after watching this video I realize it's going to be a journey and I need to figure the product out before any market or customer. I come from a background in filmmaking and story telling and these videos are one beautiful journey, lovely going to learn a lot more from you. ♥

[@Tony-bn6sm]

you are an amazing and inspirational girl.. . with your positive never give up attitude, you will last through the quieter periods. You dont just accept them, but you change and adapt your business and products to suit any changes. You are constantly adapting and learning from any minor failures... All this makes you a success now and well into the future... Wishing you all the best

[@rosamota08]

I came into your channel a few months ago and fell in love with your content. I told my sister about it and she fell in love too. In total we have 6 sweaters from your shop. We love them all! I’m from South Texas where it’s hot all year round but still wanted to support a small business. Don’t give up because the quality is great. We can’t wait for you to drop more merch.

[@flowersfam3462]

I'm trying to start my own business with my own handmade handbags designs after losing so much during the pandemic, but it takes money for a business license/trademark, website, materials, etc. There are so many expenses to even start from nothing. No one really talks about the cost of starting a small business. Many make it seem so easy when it's not, so thank you for keeping it real by showing the ups and downs. I'm not giving up, even if I have to sell some bags on the side of the road to get enough money to start my brand/business. Praying for the best to hopefully start next year.

[@tazzyland8191]

I wish you all the best on this project! And never give up or lose motivation. I love you girl, u definitely got this❤️

[@ifitumichenemi]

This is by far one of the most beautiful stories of the struggles small business owners and Start ups go through. Nobody sees or knows what really happens behind the scenes. The sacrifices, disappointments and personal struggles we go through to make end products beautiful. Thank you for putting this together. Keep pushing girl! Goodluck! Love to your mum & dog, as they are truly giving a helping hand. The smiles from your dog means a lot! ❤❤❤

[@kirakorani]

As of 2/28/23, this video has 2 MILLION VIEWS!!! Congrats!! I have been so scared to start my own business because I have a mind that tells me all of the cons and forgets all the pros. You have really inspired me!! I wish you well in the ups and the downs and just remember to keep trying!! You've come this far, what's to stop you now? XOXO

[@catagonox]

I have to admit, IG is failing me tremendously. It was going really well a few months ago because for the first time ever I opened up to doing reels (I loved posting images back in the day and didn't want to adapt 😅) and now some of my reels don't reach at all, even to my current followers, which is soul crushing. As you say though, you can't give up, we learn and we keep trying. I feel it, I really do. Also can't wait for you to open up to more countries. Much love, you are doing great 💖😁

[@Livdaybyday]

omg I am currently having the same issue!! My reels were doing very well finally for the first month, until randomly all of a sudden the views drop down to 200 & no likes! On all platforms at the same time lol :( it's extremely tiring for sure but I keep telling myself to keep pushing forward & don't give up

[@Poshhbaby]

Its instagram always changing the algorithm so they can fck with small businesses

[@RosequartzDivination]

This story is so inspiring. Initially I watched to learn but then ended up crying when you talked about your story and chick fil a. Plot twist... your video got viral and looks like you figured it out. I hope. Good luck with your future endeavors. 🤞🍀💕

[@seanfashionista]

Your channel is such an inspiration to us all trying to build businesses! Keep up the work and kudos to you for not giving up even when things became difficult ! ❤

[@colinjonesshyguy]

Wow! After a workplace accident, being forgotten and heartbroken by someone I loved I can relate. My savings are zero and I now live pay check to pay-check. Been in an emotional spiral for a year now, not knowing if I will ever get back on my feet. Stumbled across your videos and you now have a subscriber for life. Such an inspiration to me and many others I think. Considered a clothing brand years ago but never pursued it. Maybe it’s time and a sign from the universe that finding your video, could be the start of a new career. ❤

[@jaan10375]

As a small business owner, I can feel you so much ❤ I am so so proud of you and amazed how you did it all alone. May you grow each and everyday 100 folds and achieve all your goals. Sending you love and luck ❤

[@frankanez6563]

you are my inspiration to continue with a brand that I keep without continuing,

[@FortuneLonline]

Starting to make my own perfume line this week. Thanks for this popping up on my wall God you are amazing I needed this. I have been going through the most hectic breaking process since after COVID job losses my mom passing on and so much more. But after watching this video I don't know how but I just know all will fall into place. I will make sure to keep fighting. My family will make it. We shall not lack. Thanks for your honesty 😗🙂

[@cat.things]

It is always heart-warming to see people consistently and persistently try to pursue their goals. I admire you. Keep working hard I hope the business will grow sufficiently so you can live the life you want ^^

I’m also facing depression a lot these days. Some people close to me ruined my career mental and physical health. They also blocking my way to progress. I feel paralyzed; forgets to eat. But when i watch your videos it relaxes me maybe i can also move forward and reset my life. Right now I don’t know how but someday so my son would feel good about us ❤ I love your work 💙

[@iamleoneljimenez]

Gotta be one of the greatest videos I've ever seen on KZbin. I am a musician who is beginning to venture into making my own clothing brand and this video was honestly incredible. You have all my respect and support, just wow.

I rarley comment on youtube videos...but I just have to say this was ultimatey SO inspiring for all the people out there who are unsure if we are on the right path and this was just every proof needed to show that as long as you put your 100% into something you beleive in, that it WILL work out. Thank you so much for sharing such raw emotions and thoughts you had during your journey. This makes me so hopeful that for myself everything will work out. so thank you so much again!

This is so inspiring. I can so relate to this. I just barely started my own small business on my own knowing very little to nothing. It’s been about a month or so since I opened my online shop. I feel like giving up because I haven’t made any sales in weeks.😩 I know if I keep trying and pushing I will get there, but at the same time I feel like giving up. I made sales here and there from family and friends that’s about it. It’s not even enough to cover all the expenses.😢 I know failure will come before success for some people. I just might need to make some changes and figure out what works for me. Hopefully, business will pick up down the road. 🤞🏼

Hi Tina, your stuff is cute,, but do you have a target market? I noticed that most of your products are glass. Do you have any products that are non-glass/not easily broken if it falls? Children and adults with butter fingers etc would prefer hard to break products. Also, pls check out other KZbinrs like 'Angela Jasmine' who started at the bottom and built her biz over time. God bless you and your business.

[@tinandesigns]

@@leshabenn3368 thank you! Yes I’ve watched her videos. She is also so inspiring. I know it will take time to grow. As long as I put all the effort, I know I will get there. Right now I have mostly glass cups. The only non glass ones, are the stainless tumblers I have that are for hot and cold drinks. I’m working on getting different types of products that are not glass.
