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

Destiny, appreciate you joining us today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?

A way to remove my mind from the 9-5 rat race and fulfill my inner childhood dreams, I found a new passion in my business. A House Called Hue creates high-quality custom embroidered goods to help consumers and small businesses elevate their branding and product offerings. We love to help small businesses, in particular black female owned businesses. Being a black mompreneur I know how hard it is to get authentic help while building your business. My daughter was premature and she had a two week stay in NICU, while I had to stay for a week recovering from stroke level blood pressure. This unexpected change took a toll on customer retention, service and the ability to bounce back after maternity leave which was longer than expected and I could not reopen until March of 2020. The community we built allowed us to develop new production schedules and strategies that allowed me to not only recover financially but set myself up to scale Q3 and Q4 in 2020 and set up the business to be poured into in 2021. We are blessed to have our community pour back into us. We have been featured and seen with Facebook, The Village Market ATL, Beyoncé.com, XONecole, The NBA, Support Black Colleges, Shine N Jam, to name a few. A House Called Hue keeps community first in our business model.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers

Back in 2018, I found myself struggling to obtain quality custom products overseas. Whether it was high purchase orders or subpar quality, I realized I needed to become the change I wanted to see. After a lot of research and trial and error, A House Called Hue, the embroidery company was born. A House Called Hue provides an avenue for dope creatives to get custom branded products without breaking the bank.

Where do you think you get most of your clients from?

We are fortunate to have most of our clients come from word of mouth, which solidifies our quality and customer service, but we also market via social media, having 19k+ plus followers on Instagram alone.

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

We are successfully reaching small businesses, start-ups and artists who would like to give customized products a try but need a little help understanding and navigating the process. A portion of our success comes through our focus on education. We hope to expand our impact through education, making sure even if the customer does not return for that particular product, they are informed to make other decisions that can help their business succeed
