We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful ALBA ESQUEDA. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with ALBA below.
ALBA , appreciate you joining us today. Alright, so we’d love to hear about how you got your first client or customer. What’s the story?
I had my first paying client couple months after I officially launched with friends and family. Client acutally found me on IG and researched our city for permanent jewelers. She messaged me and I did a one on one appointment. I was so scared to be honest. But she was kind and let me take as long as I needed too. When you first start out in this business you will have the PJ SHAKES is what we call them. But yes social media plays a lot into clients finding you!
ALBA , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
It all started while scralling on TIKTOK early December 2022! I watched my very first permanent jewelry video! I then begin my 8 hour rabbit hole is what I call it. Researching what it was and what was being used. I really thought about heard. If i was going to either try it first or just make the jump and invest!! And sure enough by end of December I recived my welding machine! and begin my journey.
I trail and error wholesalers etc for weeks. and practiced on my husband and toddler. And Finally I had my launch party Feb 2023.
I am very proud of myself for learning this trade and making it my business! My clients have been loyal to me and have come back to me since I started.
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
Its really social media postings on IG. You really have to have a clean aesthetic instagram!! my presets on my pictures are the same. my colors on my tiktok etc.
How do you keep your team’s morale high?
Just treat everyone how you would like to be treated!
