We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Edwennia Moore a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Edwennia , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Risk taking is something we’re really interested in and we’d love to hear the story of a risk you’ve taken.
Walking away from the one career I was most comfortable with in corporate America as a banker of over 15 years under my belt to open up my own business was one of the biggest, scariest risk I had ever took in my life. And now after 4 years I have no regrets of doing so even on my slowest months, closing down after a pandemic and not knowing how things would continue to flow. It’s a risk that I value
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 am the owner and founder of Trinity’s day spa pampering for kids. My business caters to kids in a very upscale way in making them feel special and pampered . My first location I opened Nov 2018 in Gainesville Fl and just recently opened a franchise location in Walmart in Rock Hill, Sc with 2 additional locations opening up in Jacksonville Fl both also inside of a Walmart store. Trinity’s day spa is the first and only kids business to be located inside of a Walmart store
How did you build your audience on social media?
I made it a part of my job to market my business daily at least 2x per day. I would constantly do giveaways to gain new followers I would also reach out to the local schools to ask about events such as carnivals and ask how I could participate and set up a booth to get more exposure of the type of audience that my business targeted.
Can you open up about how you funded your business?
I literally took all of my savings and cashed out all of my investments and 401k to fund my own business because I did not want to go to a bank and ask for a loan not knowing which direction my new business could take
