Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Keyeshia Watson. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Keyeshia, thanks for joining us today. Has Covid resulted in any major changes to your business model?

Only Two Things Changed For My Business Due To Covid.. Firstly, I No Longer Appear at Pop-Ups, Markets,etc… Secondly, I Only Work with Models & Influencers on a PR Basis… These Adaptions Have Made A Positive Impact…

I know that in many ways the Pandemic Was Supposed To Hurt The Small Business, But My Business Actually Has Scaled Up Beyond My Stats I Predicted.. Covid Era Has Grown My Business Tremendously…

Keyeshia, 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?

For As Long As I Can Remember, I Always Wanted To Design, Create, and Be That Multi Entrepreneur I Knew I Could Be… I Also Knew I Would Have My Own Brand Some Day As Well… Chic Eccentrics Is A Multi Brand I Cultivated Once I Migrated From West Point, Mississippi To Tampa, Florida… The Soft Launch was in Fall 2016 and The Official Launch was January 31, 2017.. The Brand Is Made Up Of A Mix Of Unique Products and As Of This Year Service As Well ….The Chic Eccentrics’ Business Hub Has Officially Launched as of January 31, 2022… And I’ve Been Busy Busy Busy…. So Many Mentees/Content Creators/Entrepreneurs Have Seeked My Help And I have Given Nothing But Quality Resolutions… On Top Of Presenting and Selling Amazing Products I Now Have An Amazing Service To Go With It… It’s Always A Pleasure Watching My Brand Grow Into This Multi Brand I Always Knew It Could Be…

Are there any books, videos or other content that you feel have meaningfully impacted your thinking?

So What A Lot Of People Might Not Know About Me Is I Read A Lot.. Not A Lot of NON Sense but Actual Writings That Can Not Only Grow My Brand, But Me As Well.. The Longevity of the List of Books That Have Impacted Me Limitless, But I Will Name My Top 5:

Can you open up about how you funded your business?

Intially I Was Able To Take Half of My First Big Big Check From Working in Corporate America & My Now Husband Matched Me So it was anywhere from $600 – $800… I was able to get all my samples out to Manufacturers, Get A Price Quote and Give The Go On My First Capsule There Were 10 pieces… At The Time I Only Dealt With Honk Kong… Every Other Capsule After The First Has Been Strictly Manufactured Here In Florida or California… Also There Were Alot of Business Fees That Had To Be Taken Care of Before Legitimately Going Live… After All Of That 5 Years Later I Can Say It Was All Worth It… I definitely have received it all back and then some…
