The Revamp
I’m sure you have noticed; the last couple of weeks have been a bit of a roller coaster. To recap a little, I have changed my major, dropped a class, launched my business idea, helped my family prepare to welcome foster children into our home and most recently revamped my business idea. I could write a blog about each of those things, but today is all about my new and improved business idea. So, let’s dive in!
When I first launched my business a couple of weeks ago, I
created an Instagram account called “Boho Media Co.” There wasn’t much meaning
behind the name, besides I like the boho style and I am interested in helping
businesses elevate their social media. Although I am intrigued by insights and
creating social media strategies, I didn’t want to limit myself to social
media. So, I decided to scratch that business name and create a new one. My new
business name is “Market and Main.” Although there still isn’t profound meaning
behind it, it is more fitting for a creative marketing agency which is my end
goal after graduation.
I am still figuring out what direction I want to take my
business while in college, but I think that is something that time will tell. I
took a couple of weeks off posting as I thought about my new business name and
created a new content schedule. When I first launched the Instagram account, my
goal was to post daily. Let’s just say that is no longer my goal. I had no idea
how hard it was to post quality content that often. My goal now is to post
three times a week and film a couple reels to help spread brand awareness.
Regardless of my business name and content strategy, I know
there are going to be ups and downs. There are going to be times this seems
like a great idea and other times that I question why I didn’t just wait until
I graduated to launch a business. I often overwhelm myself thinking about the
possible options, but then I stop remember I will either succeed or learn and
both are important. I am excited to see where these new changes lead and will
be sure to keep you updated along the way.
I think it is really hard to know what direction your professional career will take. That is what I have been worried about a late lately. I respect you for taking a leap of faith and doing your own thing while you're still in school. I hope the best for you.
ReplyDeleteI really respect you being willing to try something new and trying to find the direction of your future. It is often said that doing what you really want to do while in school but I think it’s not easy. But you are doing it and I think you are so cool! I wish you the best as well :)
