to market to market
















For the past week I have been in Atlanta with my three close friends and business partners. After much prayer and encouragement from others we decided to take our frames to Market in Atlanta. Market is held two times a year in Atlanta and is a huge event where stores from all of the United States come and place orders for things they want to carry in their stores. We were definitely nervous about going and did not know exactly what to expect, but we had a great time and did really well! Each show we have done has helped us learn things that we can do differently and better. Before we went to Market we worked really hard as a business and now have a logo and a website. We also have new signs, order forms and business cards that feature our logo. We also had new label made with our logo that has our website and says Made in the U.S.A., which we are really proud of! We also worked hard on a new set up for our booth which included a new rug, furniture, and beautiful new fabrics for our frames. It really was a opportunity I will never forget...our first time going to Market. We met lots of great people and established great contacts for networking. It was also so encouraging to be picked up by great stores all over the country including two in Raleigh! We are excited to go back in July and continue to grow our business. It is so awesome to be involved in a business with these girls and know that we all love each other and the Lord!!!
