Happy business anniversary to me! Swipe to see my first website, built 8 years ago in the basement of the Boylston St. Starbucks with the guidance of my patient web design tutor, . We built it in Dreamweaver (🤣) and I redesigned and moved it to Wordpress the following year. The message hasn't changed much (I still love working with entrepreneurs and small biz owners 💼), but thank goodness the design has 😬⠀ ⠀
In true business anniversary fashion, I just gotta say thanks. Thank you for being here. Thank you for liking and commenting on designs that I post. Thank you for asking me how business is going when you see me. And thank you for referring me to your friends, colleagues, and family members. As a Leo business owner, it feels pretty amazing to know that most of my leads are from word-of-mouth, and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren't for the endless encouragement I've received along the way.⠀ ⠀
*And a funny story*: One day while I was designing this website in a cafe in Boston, .lohr, who was sitting next to me and working on launching her first clothing line, leaned over and said "Wow, Bel. You're getting really good." 🤣🤣🤣 Needless to say, my aesthetic and her taste have matured since then, but if I could go back and tell those girls how good it was really going to get - they would've rolled their eyes in sync, laughed a little, and sarcastically asked to hear more. I never thought I'd still be running this business in 2018, let alone working on launching what might be our 10th site together. You're a boss and I'm glad I made the decision to follow you to the top 😍⠀ ⠀
Cheers to 8 years, folks. Let’s party! @ Denver, Colorado
