WHY I TOOK THE DIVE INTO CHALK COUTURE AND NEVER LOOKED BACK.
If you know me, you know that enjoy the artsy stuff in life and I seem to always have little (and sometimes not so little) project on the go at home.
I'm a #SAHM and I need - NEEDED something to break up my day of #pawpatrol, laundry, talk about spiderman and chasing after babies that were way too fast. Talk about #momlife right?
With the support of my husband I rediscovered my love for art, acrylic painting in particular and with that I created a facebook page, a small following and I have even sold some! But this did very little for sustainability.
Fast forward a few years and the messes have grown, the babies are still fast - there's just more of them (we are becoming extremely outnumbered) and Paw Patrol is still rolling. My biggest personal issue was I really needed to find an excuse to socialize and interact with other adults. Living in a small rural community where the majority of the industry is #farming, there are not a lot of opportunities to go out and do that. It was starting to take its toll. #supportmetalhealthawareness
I wasn't actively looking for Chalk Couture or a direct sales opportunity. I was the mom that avoided them like a plague, sorry friends(#sorrynotsorry) but Chalk Couture found me and I get it now. I really do.
I'm sure you've all see at least one ad or post from someone you know or maybe don't know who is shouting from the proverbial rooftops, eye bulging with excessive emoji use (‼️‼️‼️) and has suffered from verbal spillage for the last 3-4 months, all thanks to Chalk Couture. You know what? I am right there with them - excessive emoji use and all and don't regret a single second of it.
I was seeing post, after post, after post about #chalkcouture and finally my interest was peaked, I clicked the link. It took me to a pre-registration page.
I rolled my eyes and moved on and did that probably half a dozen times before I finally gave in.
I pre-registered.
Even then I had no idea as to what I got myself into and had so many unanswered questions.
I received a pre-registration email from Chalk Couture and headed over to their Canadian Registrants group and just like that, I was in love. I read and read, and the deeper I dove in the more I realized it was the purest of true loves.
I was in, hook, line and sinker. I was wooed.
So why? that's what you want to know, right? Why Chalk Couture?
Here you go:
I can build the business MY WAY. What got me over the top excited was the prospect of because to have 'Chalk Nights' or 'Sip 'n Chalks' or 'Make and Takes' whatever you choose to call it - its exciting. You think paint nights are big? These will be huge! I can have people book parties with me on a schedule that works with me and teach the to create their own home decor item and get excited about Chalk Couture through a fun and easy process to learn AND socialize!? Yes. Please. Oh wait, did I mention you can make money while doing it? SOLD.
I can have fun and create my own unique finished goods that all have my own twist on them. You can use Chalk Couture products on anything! You are not nailed down into only using and selling their products. They encourage and nurture creativity and encourage their designers to find their niche. I can not stress enough how much I love this. Because in the end, if you love their products others will see that and love them too.
They set you up with everything you need to succeed including a full chalk site(website) where your customers can order directly from. Just want to do internet sales? boom. done. They handle all your order processing, shipping and payments for you. You really just sit back and watch the dollars roll in.
You can still host your classic home party! If you have friends who want to know more but don't want to put on a full make and take, a home party is still a great way for me to schedule around my life and get to socialize!
expos, craft shows, farmers markets, pop-up shops........
If you don't see where I'm going here I'll explain it all in one sentence.
I control how I build my business on my terms and in the best way that works for me and my #family. And really, in the end it really is all for that crazy crew.
How awesome is that?
