Celebrating 10 years this month.
Proud of stepping out on my own and beating the statistics!






The unfortunate truth of owning and running a business.

Running a business is really hard.
What they don’t tell you is that it can cause severe stress and anxiety, and drains you mentally to the point of depression in even the most laid-back people.

People will talk about you, compare you to others, use you, they will view you as a service and not a person anymore.
Friends and family will expect discounts and people will value you and your hard work less than a big chain store.

You have to worry about if you forget to email/message someone back, are they going to think it was on purpose? Did you disappoint them? Will they hold that against you? When in reality you just can’t get to everyone’s messages and emails.
Starting up and running a successful business puts incredible strain on personal lives and relationships, many of which fail because there is just often no work-life balance.

You need to be the director, the worker, the admin, the marketing team, the accountant, the cleaner..... All whilst being a parent, a husband or a wife, family support, friend...

There’s a reason you don’t see many people succeed in small businesses after 5-10 years. If they are successful they are overwhelmed.

It takes a toll. It’s freaking exhausting. Especially the past couple of years when so much has been out of our control.
Here’s a small reminder that we are just normal people with hectic lives.

Be kind, be patient, support small businesses…….and hopefully more of us will stick around!

And know that 2022 prices are not 2023 prices

I copied this from another small business owner that I support!
Please support small business!

Cleaning up another logo...Sometimes people pay big $ for logos and then never receive the actual files or they lose track of them... If you have a logo you need updated or you want to create a new one, give me a shout!

"Menus came in! They look fantastic! Thank you so much for everything!!"
Zach B with Giovanni's

These comments are very satisfying, especially when a customer takes the time to say thank you after receiving order.

Stoner's Pizza Joint has a very distinct brand!
A nice 6x11 postcard for their marketing efforts.
Thank you, Ashley!
