Welcome Back! Glad to see that you are still with us and you was here for our eighteenth black owned business yesterday! If you are new here, grab a seat and check out what we are doing this month and don't forget to go back to the other blogs so you can play catch up! We hope you are enjoying learning about these businesses and their owners as much as we are. π
For Black History Month, Eta Sigma Delta Inc is highlighting some of our black owned businesses on the grid. These business leaders have been seen working very hard at what they do and showing everyone that they can and will do it. We want to recognize them for their hard work and dedication to their crafts.
These businesses have made a positive impact to the community rather it was by recognizing their dedicated customers, giving out group gifts, joining into conversations with their customers on Facebook or just by giving great customer service. We want to say thank you for letting us into your world and we commend you for your hard work and focus.
Here is what our nineteenth business owner had to say....
Our nineteenth business is De'Corum!
"I am a mother of four beautiful daughters with two boys on the way. I have a wonderful and supportive fiancΓ© who helps me run De'corum. I've always had a passion for designing and even styling. I actually got into home interior by accident lol. I would decorate my own home and family started noticing my work. They would then ask me to do their homes and encouraged me to open my own business so I took a chance. Pretty soon I was having clients on hold waiting until I had openings to get their homes done. I really enjoy what I do and I try my best to balance my RL time with my SL time. I love the beauty in SL and wanted to help add to it one home at a time."
- "I never really thought about this. I don't think it's harder having a black owned business. I actually never really paid attention to the race of my clientele. Now that I think about the question most of my clients I will say are African American, I don't know if that's by design or just because the group of people that are around me tend to be those of my own race. I don't think my designs fully cater to black people, however I do use a lot of black art but if my client isn't black I do different type of art pieces. I usually cater to my clients vision bringing my own uniqueness to it. I just bring realism to my work and I think that fits any race."
- "The most fulfilling part of my business is when my clients walk into their homes and are completely happy with what they see. I love when they walk through each room, snapping pictures and saying they can't wait to have company over lol.... yeah that's the best feeling. "
