We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Markecia Dudley a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Markecia, thanks for joining us today. Alright, so one thing we think people don’t talk about nearly enough is investments – either time or money. What’s one of the best or worst investments you’ve made and what did you learned from the experience?
My best investment was my bus to travel to do nails in! Being stationary is boring to me so I got a bus so that would I have little to no overhead and started to travel to people’s homes which was a great market and an untouched Market as well. And even if I no longer wanted to do nails anymore I can transform that bus into something else and have a whole new adventure!
Markecia, 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?
The Traveling nail bar is my business and I am a retired traveling nail tech and now a home baker. My business name for that is Nicole’s Sweet Treats you can follow me on Facebook & Instagram at Nicolessweettreats21
I am most proud of myself because I didn’t give up on being an entrepreneur. It’s definitely not for weak but I got through it and I’m learning more everyday
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
Honestly, a new source for a clients for the business has been the Snapchat. It has gotten me farther than Facebook and Instagram put together in a short amount of time I wish I had of used it sooner
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
Continuously posting! I’ve learned that posting at least two to three times a day for people to see has been great for me
