Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Shannon Moton. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Shannon, appreciate you joining us today. Looking back, do you think you started your business at the right time? Do you wish you had started sooner or later?

I first became interested in graphics during the end of 2019, but I didn’t start taking my graphic business seriously until I taught myself how to create logos, flyers, and other things in 2021. Although I was in a somewhat respectable situation when I started my business, I was stressed out and depressed. Because not everyone in the graphic industry is friendly, it was difficult to break into the industry. To be quite honest, I’m glad I launched my company at the time I did. The graphic business is no joke, thus I do wish I had more information when I first started.

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 name is Shannon M but everyone calls me Shan. In my first interview I was bringing light to my hair brand. However, in this interview I will bringing light to my graphic business called The Ten17 Effect. We are a graphic design & marketing company that brings beauty and fashion brands to life. We help business owners that are new to being an entrepreneur with their business and also seasoned entrepreneurs that are looking to elevate their business to the next level. We specialize in websites, branding and social media content/management. What makes TTE different from other graphic companies is because we know what it takes to run a business and how it feels to try a run a business by yourself with no help. This is one of reasons why I started the Ten17 Effect.

What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?

The part of my business that I find most satisfying is when I witness my customers succeeding in their ventures and watching their companies expand.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

My main goal is to see my business grow and open a physical shop.
