We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Rachel Davis. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Rachel below.
Rachel, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today So, naming is such a challenge. How did you come up with the name of your brand?
I wanted something unique and different! My middle name is Zemira so I figured that would be really cool to use! It’s not a name you see very often.
Rachel, 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?
My mom always had baking supplies in the house. We did a lot of bake sales for church. Eventually I decided I loved it and wanted to make a career out of it. I graduated college with a degree in hospitality management and culinary arts.
I feel what sets me apart is I try to treat my clients like family. Desserts can be used for every occasion! Weddings. Celebrations etc. I try to show the joy I have for them through my baking. As far as solving issues if a customer is unhappy I do resolve it! I never want anyone to leave disappointed. However we all know some folks you can’t make happy no matter what you do.
I most proud of my dedication. It’s a lot road building up a reputation. I just want people to know if you try my desserts you’ll be able to see and taste the heart I put into them.
Can you open up about how you funded your business?
Self funding is how I’ve funded my business. Cleaning homes, extra shifts, side jobs such as door dash etc. My sister , mom and husband have also helped me obtain items needed to succeed. Such as cake boxes, flour , sugar etc. I wouldn’t have made it this far without them.
We’d love to hear about how you keep in touch with clients.
I have a Facebook page many people follow. I try to offer raffles , discounts etc. Some of my clients truly have become family. They root for me just as hard as my actual family.
