We were lucky to catch up with Daniel Jefferson recently and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Daniel thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. The first dollar your business earns is always special and we’d love to hear how your brand made its first dollar of revenue.
I actually got my first client by helping my past employer with her marketing. While interning with her I helped her increase her social media presence through a variety of different strategies. She appreciated the work that I did for her so much that when my intern semester ended, she paid me to continue helping with her social media.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
Royal Creative Group is a creative agency that provides innovative brand strategy and marketing solutions to creatives and small business owners. Often times people have excellent products, services, or talent to share with the word they are just unsure about how to spread the word about it, that is where we come in. The thing that I am most proud of with Royal Creative is the results that we have for our customers. Whether it’s helping with a successful rebrand, creating a content strategy, or running paid advertising we make sure that our customer leaves us better than when they came.
How did you put together the initial capital you needed to start your business?
We fund our business through our own investments and the revenue that we make from our clients. There have been times throughout our journey where we were unsure of how we would pay for certain necessities but we have stayed diligent to our mission and we come out on top every-time. Building a business is a long process with lots of ups and downs and we are along for the ride.
Any advice for managing a team?
One piece of advice I would give for managing a team and maintaining high morale is to make sure that your team feels appreciated. Things as small as paying for dinner or giving a surprise bonus will remind your team that you truly appreciate them and the work that they do. So often as business owners we get so caught up with the bottom line for our business that we forget that our team are people at the end of the day.
