A MOTHER and entrepreneur has revealed that she started her side hustle from her sofa, with just £250 whilst on maternity leave, but it is now an extremely successful business, raking in a whopping…
“It’s crazy, very unexpected, and it’s been such an amazing opportunity and learning experience. It’s changed our lives.”
“We didn’t even have a website and people were trying to order through our Instagram. It all happened in the first year of my son’s life while I was sitting on the couch. “We do custom signs for all occasions - anything from a vintage cafe sign or something for a baby’s room.“You can choose from 18 different colours and 40 different fonts.
“I was due to go back to work in January 2019 and I didn't go back because by that point we had gotten so big that we needed to hire a small team to help us.“Once I put my son to bed I would get the orders ready to ship. We shipped packages all across the world, from our home. In October 2018, we turned over £66,000 in the month - I remember that as being a bit of a milestone for us.She explained: “I was working in a completely different environment before, I was working in HR in recruitment.“I’d worked in retail and customer service throughout university so there was that element that I knew but starting a business Instagram, back then, there weren’t that many resources out there to show you how to do it.
Thanks to her business success, Jess revealed that she is now able to work flexibly and regularly take her family on lavish holidays.
