Contestant's Case to Win
This is based on the number of votes received and does not reflect the quality of the business or chances of winning. In 2010 I realized that what I was doing wasn't what I loved doing- I turned a hobby into a start up accessories that did great, which led to a blog- a co-owned business and a subscription service that promotes other handmade businesses. My original shop has now been featured in magazine print, television and purchased by celebs. The shop I co-own started only out of being in the blogging & handmade community and the subscription service helps show off businesses trying to get started just like I did a few years back! I give a lot of the success and growth to social media including blog platforms, facebook, twitter, pinterest and instagram- all of which I use every day to support my business & passions.
