We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Tiniya Bridgers a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Tiniya, thanks for joining us today. Folks often look at a successful business and imagine it was an overnight success, but from what we’ve seen this is often far from the truth. We’d love to hear your scaling up story – walk us through how you grew over time – what were some of the big things you had to do to grow and what was that scaling up journey like?
The biggest thing is staying the course , trusting God and being patient .
If I told you everything about this journey has been easy I’d be lying, This is years of hard work , late nights , tears & so much much more.
I remember crying to my mom many nights because I was soo frustrated or I would just feel like the hard work I’m putting in is for nothing because I was so consistent with posting about 10 times a day between all of my platforms and she would always remind me to stick to the plan because God see’s me , and I did just that.
I know social media can make it look like you’re going to wake up one day & become this six figure boss overnight but if it was that easy everyone would be one . So , when people look at my success & all I’ve accomplished or even when people reach out and let me know how much I inspire them I be sure to let them know I’m nowhere near where I want to be nor has it been easy but I’m super blessed & greateful at how far I’ve come.
Today , I am the owner of my own beauty bar and the journey hasn’t gotten any easier but the patience I’ve learned over the years and the type of faith I have now I have no doubt in my mind that this is just the beginning to something that will one day be soo super big for me ..
Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
When building your audience on social media the biggest thing Is finding your target audience, and converting your audience into sales or clients.
Everything is about being consistent. I posted about 10 times a day between 3 platforms (TikTok, ig , fb) every single day about things my friends may not have known about the industry or just lashes itself, and that’s just one of the many things Ive done to build my social media audience.
I just actually dropped my ebook on how to successfully market your brand on social media for only $50 so if you’d like to know the exact tricks check out my ebook 💕
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
I would definitely say word of mouth .
If people come to be serviced by you, the work is good they were treated nice and respectfully your outside marketing will literally do itself .
