We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Brenda Pond. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Brenda below.
Brenda, appreciate you joining us today. So, let’s imagine that you were advising someone who wanted to start something similar to you and they asked you what you would do differently in the startup-process knowing what you know now. How would you respond?
I would have done my homework and read reviews on employees who I have worked with in the past. I would of not hired them to work for me. You have to be careful who you partner up with in business. My business would off taken off at least two years ago had I known then what I know now, but we all learn from our mistakes.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
The world knows me to be the Founder/CEO of FindersPage. I’m just a small-town girl from the country, surviving just like everyone else in life. I’m no different then anyone. I was born in Chicago, Illinois and raised at my parent’s ranch in Texas. I’m of Indigenous descent, including (Coahuiltecan) and Wales, England ancestry. Later in life, I ventured off to explore the world. I’ve always been an entrepreneur at heart. From a spiritual leader and now the creator of FindersPage. I never liked working for others, so it’s important for me to be my own boss. I grew up fast, yet humbled. I’m thankful for my wonderful parents for raising me to become an ambitious woman. Even though they were a little strict, I got to love them for it. It wasn’t easy for me at times, but eventually I found my purpose in life. I can relate with humanity and the struggles they have endured. During covid, I hit rock bottom as most of us did. I had a vision that inspired me to create FinderPage. I believe in my heart we are here on earth to reach our fullest potential. Everyone has a gift to share. Together we can rise to live a life full of balance and joy. We learn and grow from our experiences to become better human beings. When the earth becomes off course and unbalanced, it causes a lot of chaos and disruptions in our solar system. It is my job and other star seeds to help bring back balance for the sake of our humanity. Be a beacon of hope, to fulfill my duty, and plant the seeds for the new era to come.
“Based on my upbringings and experiences I’ve encountered I’m able to give back to help humanity in all walks of life through my career. I reclaim my throne and rule my empire as a fierce divine feminine leader.”
I will continue to be a vessel for the world.
Can you talk to us about how your funded your business?
Well you need to invest money to make money and work smarter too. The key is to always build the traffic flow to your business/company. Offer free stuff and don’t charge too much in the beginning. You need to stand out from everyone else and be unique. I actually have a wonderful team from India. There a lot cheaper from other countries too. Especially when it comes to coding and marketing. I came to my business with no money and invested a little as I went. Don’t give up either, it takes about a year or more until you start making your money back.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
I’ve learned to not share to much information about myself or my business I’m working on until I become successful. People like to still ideas.
