We recently connected with Kelsey Bates and have shared our conversation below.
Kelsey, appreciate you joining us today. What’s the backstory behind how you came up with the idea for your business?
A little over a year ago I was planning our daughter’s first birthday party and I really wanted a white bounce house (they were all over Instagram)! I searched google and social media and could not find a white bounce house company near the Charleston area, so I told my husband that someone should start one, and he said “why not us?!” And the rest is history!
Kelsey, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Little Babes of Charleston is a luxe kids party rental company! We have white bounce houses, luxury ball pits, and soon to be soft play for your little one’s birthday parties!
Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
We have really tried to stand out in the Charleston area, and to provide the best service as possible! We focus on our brand, and providing high quality products as well as top notch customer service. We are fully licensed and insured and put the customer’s needs first. When it comes to advertising, we stick to social media and stay original. That’s the Little Babes way! :)
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
My number one advice for social media is to stay in your own lane and stay original. Do not look at other local companies and copy what they are doing – people will notice and it will only hurt you! Stay consistant with your branding, as well as your posting. Foster the audience that you have instead of trying to grow/get more followers, especially if your clients are local! Lastly, everything is content! Video or take photos of everything you do! You never know when it could be used for social media content!
