The uphill battle of a small business

As much as I enjoy turning my passion and art into a business, there are times when I hit a wall and I'm forced to walk up it. The climb to a successful business is hard, everyone knows that, but I don't think people who haven't experience know the feeling of failure and lost hope. Like a roller coaster ride, I have my highs of the business.

I enjoy bringing my creations into life and it's thrilling when others share my vision. I yearn for more feedback and custom orders. I thrive on happy customers and blush at compliments. However, when it comes down to it, none of the above bring money. In the end, a business is suppose to bring in money and I'm at a fork in the road on how to do that.

Here comes the long dive down followed by the still air of the unknown. As a struggling artist/business owner, I can't help but wonder if I will succeed and how long I can continue doing this. With the support of my family, friends, and fans I will continue to pursue my passion to create and brand Trizanh. The question looms over my head: What is success and what is failure?

Until I find my own answers, I will continue to create unique handmade bags because a purse is the best accessory a girl can have!
