We were lucky to catch up with Exvelma Webb recently and have shared our conversation below.

Exvelma , thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.

So I came up with the idea to start my healthy hair care line, CoCoEssentialsByWebb for many reasons. One reason was because I always loved buying haircare products to see how they worked and how they smelled. Another reason because I suffered severely with dandruff and shedding and nothing worked for my hair. Lastly was because I was not sure if I was going to have a job during the pandemic so I researched different formulas and ingredients and once I did, partnered with a chemist and now I have not just one product but 7 products. All products added to the hair care line help to target dry scalp and dandruff as well as to promote healthy hair growth.

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

Can you talk to us about how your funded your business?

I had to work 2 jobs to help fund my business.

We’d love to hear your thoughts about selling platforms like Amazon/Etsy vs selling on your own site.

I currently sell my products on Shopify via www.cocoessentialsbywebb.com

I chose this platform because I can be creative with my marketing to be able to reach my target audience & customers. The positive side to Shopify is that there are so many ways to be creative with your business big the downside that it can get confusing.
