We were lucky to catch up with Victoria Mack recently and have shared our conversation below.

Victoria, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today What’s the backstory behind how you came up with the idea for your business?

I’m a foodie from Chicago, IL. I love to cook and bake but unfortunately in 2019 I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic just as the Thanksgiving/Christmas holiday season was approaching, I absolutely love cranberry sauce but could no longer enjoy the famous store brands, I took it upon myself to create a tasty sugar free cranberry sauce right away in 2019 just to have at dinner, in 2020 my pre-diabetic status was revised (yay) but I still live a sugar free healthy lifestyle, my sugar free cranberry sauce is vegan & keto friendly, good source of vitamin c, gluten-free, fat free, low carb, 100% all natural.

I have shared my sugar free cranberry sauce and my bbq sauce with my family and friends who absolutely love them & can’t believe how tasty and healthy it is, now it’s time for me to share my products with my new friends (you) !

We all deserve to have good products that are tasty but yet healthy.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

Well I absolutely love to cook and bake, I gained inspiration for cooking when I started watching Julia Child on PBS in Chicago, IL in my teenage years, Julia paved the way for so many greats, I loved her style of cooking, I always wanted something in the food industry that I could call my own, the idea of selling my products came to me after I got so much good feedback from my family and friends.

I am most proud of how healthy the sauces and spices I create are, you can enjoy the delicious taste of Mz. V’s Kitchen guilt free!

Are there any books, videos or other content that you feel have meaningfully impacted your thinking?

Yes, I have read a lot of books that have inspired me but there are two books that stand out, one is from my Pastor Dr. Bill Winston called “Faith and The MarketPlace” and another from Pastor T.D. Jakes called “Soar!” Both books have impacted my entrepreneurial journey in such a powerful way, I definitely recommend reading those two book on your journey towards success.

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

The most effective strategy for growing my clientele is to continue to produce top quality products with amazing taste, finding different platforms to sell on and coming up with different ways to market Mz. V’s Kitchen outside of social media like going into different communities and listening to the people wants and needs in healthy food.
