We were lucky to catch up with Alva Hiers recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Alva, thanks for joining us today. Before we get into specifics, let’s talk about success more generally. What do you think it takes to be successful?
To be successful I know it takes, much courage, commitment, dedication and more than anything thinking “Smarter, Not Harder!” To be successful there are many paths one can take before reaching your goal but it is doable and you will make it to the finish line you must simply keep striving and going. In this business it is about law of attraction and the need to make others happy but also knowing that you are serving someone who is as much delighted to be in your presence as you are to be in theirs. So why do I say it takes commitment to be successful? Because think about it would you want someone to take over your business that you have worked so hard to start up and get off the ground? The answer is “No.” You would want someone who shows excellent customer service, has gratitude and shows faith in pursuing the best not only for themselves but the business as well!
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
I hand-make waist-beads, keychains, anklets, double anklets even triple anklets, chokers, big beaded bracelets that stretch, glass beads and even seed beads. I also make all my items with a lobster clamp or barrel twist to finish it off. I make sure my customers are able to take off and put on their jewelry as need. My items can be worn on the shower. My business was thought of back in 2018 when my son was born and has been doing awesome . Right now we are just local in my area but I am working to get us to be world wide. I also size and use my measuring tape to get the best size for my customers to get the job done and make sure they are fit to petite. I love making my items because we are a “UNISEX” business and my job as CEO is to make sure everyone feels beautiful in their Jewelry. I can hand-make anything even if someone sends me a picture to compare what they would like I can make it . So I am on TikTok and other social media websites and I look forward to seeing you all soon.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
For me the most rewarding aspect of being a creator is being able to share my work on all social media platforms.
Where do you think you get most of your clients from?
The source of new clients for me has been word of the mouth and actually being in the field I have others who have just seen my work and then they talk to me and they refer others to my different platforms.
