From Lemonade Stand to Small Business Owner
We think it is the desire of every person to have their own business and be their own boss. You know...a child's lemonade stand? Bet you had one at some point in your youth! Even if you only made $1.60 after a long, hot day--it was worth every minute just to have your own money. (Even if Mom paid for your start-up costs!)
Our desire to start Somewhat Organic came from educating ourselves about what we were putting into our body. From there we did the research necessary to make our own soaps and things just grew from there. We love the process of taking natural ingredients and making them into something that can not only help ourselves, but others.
We've learned a lot along the way about business, marketing, ourselves and how to work as a team. We've had successes and failures--as all businesses do. We're not afraid to get our feet wet or our hands dirty--and we often do!
We really desire to educate you--the consumer--on what we do, why we do it and why you would want to jump on the organic bandwagon. Join us each Wednesday, here at our blog, and feel your brain EXPLODE with useful information that might just change your life! :)
In the mean time, go support a local small business this week. And if you're so inclined, ask the owner why and how they got started. I bet you'll make their day!
