Amy Bierstedt —

“I won’t sugarcoat any of this. Making the leap to start a business is easy. Keeping your passion lit and keeping a business afloat is hard. Having a brick and mortar store (and all the pressures that come with that) is even harder! And it’s scary! But with handmade friends, fellow retailers, support from family, some business classes/webinars, a great point of sales system, awesome products, passion, courage, and grace… it can work and you will LOVE it! There is nothing more satisfying!”
