We were lucky to catch up with Jessenia Cosme recently and have shared our conversation below.

Jessenia, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Have you ever had an amazing boss? What did you learn from them? Maybe you can share a story that illustrates the kind of boss they were or maybe you can share your thoughts on what you think made them an awesome person to work for?

James Conigliaro, my former boss, was more than a supervisor; he became a mentor, a confidant, and a guiding light in both my professional and personal journey. From the very first encounter, Jimmy welcomed me not just as an employee, but as a cherished member of his work family. His wisdom extended beyond spreadsheets and project deadlines; it encompassed life’s most critical decisions.

Jimmy taught me how to navigate the intricacies of finances, emphasizing that fiscal responsibility was essential for a fulfilling life. But his guidance transcended balance sheets. He reminded me that life was a single, precious thread, urging me to weave it with purpose and joy. Fear and worry were mere distractions; determination and ambition were my compass.

I owe Jimmy a debt of gratitude. His lessons propelled me to where I stand today, but they didn’t stop there. I’ve paid it forward, sharing his wisdom with friends and colleagues. Our workplace, once a mere office, now thrives on a foundation of family-oriented values—thanks to Jimmy’s indelible influence.

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.

My story echoes the spirit of determination. I emerged from humble origins, fueled not by privilege but by unwavering resolve. The walls of that tiny room I started in absorbed my dreams, and the glow of my visions illuminated every late-night work session while my family slept. I was and still am very aware that this path would be strewn with hurdles, but I cling to the belief that nothing can deter me.

In April of 2023, I turned that small room into my very first storefront and it’s so much more than just your typical brick and mortar. It is a testament to love, partnership, and the audacity to defy odds. I am the architect of my destiny, shaping my legacy one custom sign at a time.

At JCsArtDesigns, I understand that life’s moments deserve more than mere acknowledgment—they deserve celebration. Somewhere, someone is rejoicing: a bride glides down the aisle, a child blows out birthday candles, an entrepreneur launches a venture, and a corporation reaches a milestone. These moments are my canvas, and my cutting-edge, bespoke signs are the brushstrokes that elevate them. My commitment extends beyond aesthetics. We infuse each sign with the essence of celebration, capturing the spirit of joy, love, and achievement. Whether it’s a whimsical baby shower or a grand corporate gala, our creations resonate. I have proudly collaborated with local planners and have graced celebrity soirées, where my signs whispered elegance and flair. When someone thinks of celebrating, I want them to immediately think of JCsArtDesigns.

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

My journey in building an audience on social media has been a blend of digital connections and face-to-face networking. I firmly believe in the principle of reciprocity: what you give comes back to you. As time has unfolded, I’ve actively supported fellow business owners who appear on my feed and explore page. It’s not just about double-tapping their posts; it’s about fostering genuine connections.

Authenticity has been my compass. While success stories flood our timelines, I intentionally share my failures too. Imperfection is my badge of honor. By doing so, I’ve discovered that people appreciate raw honesty. They don’t want a curated highlight reel; they want relatability. This approach has deepened our relationships, not only on a professional level but also on a personal one.

Staying true to myself has yielded an organic and real following. It’s not about numbers; it’s about the bonds formed—one post, one interaction at a time.

What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?

Building authentic relationships has been my secret sauce for attracting new clients. Whether online or in person, I’ve stayed true to my genuine self, and the positive vibes I radiate have become my magnetic force.

In the dynamic world of event planning, the keyword is unmistakably “FUN”. Without it, an event lacks its sparkle. By embracing my fun-loving side, I’ve drawn in clients who crave that same vibrant energy for their special occasions. It’s like sprinkling confetti on every project!

As I forge closer bonds with my clients, they become my advocates. Their voices echo my name in those grand rooms where decisions are made. And what do I exude? Love. Because who can resist that uplifting energy in their daily circle?
