Story Time🕺🕺🕺
One beautiful afternoon, I got a call from a sweet lady from Abuja that she needed to place an order for a makeup line, she and her friends wanted to have a business together and all, I took my time to explain and was so excited because the gain was showing millions.
I then checked my clients, they were mostly from Abuja so I said why not let me book my flight to Abuja, set up a meet and greet there, and also honor an interview invitation from my dear friend, I also included a very stupid decision🤦🏽♀️ if it was now, I could have known better.
So I got my agent to help book my flight, I went shopping, bought new items, and moved. I landed in Abuja, called the client and she told me oh nice let's see, days later, I called back, and she said she was not interested 😩 I could not cry. I then reached out to my friend for the interview at least something has to be done, right? I was happy I did that, you can comment on the comment section for the link to the interview (It spoke about depression, money making, self-esteem, and everything I battled and overcame in that interview )
My meet and greet was great, people showed up but I made no sales except sales from the samples I brought in.
Here are the mistakes I made
1. No proper planning: thinking now, I could have collaborated with a make-up brand, the client not only gets to see the product but see it tested on a model. Having a make-up artist commend the product would be something that could have sold
2. Sin: I don't mean to sound religious or anything, please permit me but living a life of sin can suck out God’s plan for your life
Part 2, is to be continued.
