We recently connected with Ariel Evans and have shared our conversation below.
Ariel , appreciate you joining us today. What sort of legacy are you hoping to build. What do you think people will say about you after you are gone, what do you hope to be remembered for?
I hope my family remembers me as someone who didn’t settle for a life that simply fit the mold. I want them to see me as a person who wasn’t afraid to step outside the boundaries of tradition or stability, who saw the risks and challenges of doing something different and chose to embrace them anyway. I want my legacy to show that I valued growth, resilience, and the courage it took to create something truly my own. By building a business, I chose a path that wasn’t always certain, but it was a path that allowed me to follow my dreams and build a life that reflected who I truly am.
More than anything, I hope my family remembers me as someone who inspired them to forge their own path, to believe that they too can create something meaningful on their own terms.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
Absolutely! My journey to creating my mobile bar business is rooted in both my time in the military and the early years of my life, where I had to grow up fast and embrace responsibility and discipline at a young age. Serving in the military taught me resilience, adaptability, and a determination to pursue excellence—qualities that I’ve translated directly into my business. When I made the decision to step away from corporate America, I knew I was taking a risk, but it was important to me to build something that reflected my own values and passion.
With my mobile bar, I’m not just offering a service; I’m building a brand that brings people together in meaningful ways. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate event, or a community gathering, I strive to provide an experience that’s memorable, creative, and truly personalized. I’ve also put a lot of energy into building my social media platform organically, allowing potential clients and followers to see the real me—someone who decided to overcome her own anxieties about social media to connect, inspire, and share my journey.
What sets me apart, I believe, is this authenticity and my commitment to showing others that they, too, can pursue their dreams. I’m incredibly proud of what I’ve built, and I want my followers and clients to see that with hard work, discipline, and a willingness to take risks, it’s possible to create something meaningful and lasting.
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
When it came to building my social media presence, I committed to growing it organically by sharing the real, behind-the-scenes story of my journey. I’ve been open about the challenges I’ve faced, the risks I’ve taken, and the progress I’ve made in building my business from the ground up. This transparency has helped me connect with my followers in a genuine way, allowing them to see both the highs and the struggles of entrepreneurship.
Rather than focusing on quick growth tactics, I put my energy into creating content that reflects the heart and values of my business, showing the hard work, discipline, and passion that I pour into each event. I think this authenticity has resonated with people who can relate to those challenges and are inspired by seeing a real person navigating them. Building my social media in this way hasn’t just grown my platform; it’s helped me connect with followers who believe in my vision and are excited to see my journey unfold.
How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?
Building a reputation in this business has been all about staying true to my core values: integrity, consistency, and authenticity. I’ve always believed that the best way to earn trust is by showing up fully, not only for my clients but also for myself. Every event, every interaction is a chance to demonstrate the high standards I hold myself to, and I strive to make that visible to both current and potential clients.
Consistency has been key in proving my dedication—clients can count on me to deliver a reliable and quality experience every time. By focusing on integrity in all aspects of my business, I hope to set an example that others can feel inspired by and trust in, knowing that they’re working with someone who is fully committed to bringing their vision to life with honesty and care.
