Hello hello friends of @BeEntrepreneur how beautiful to have a community like this, we are many entrepreneurs today and this channel is ideal to share our experiences and unburden ourselves in this journey that involves hard work.
Many times I have heard it said that to start a business it is not necessary to have money, but that having the desire is more than enough, which I totally disagree with.
I have a little more than 11 years in what for me is a beautiful and exciting undertaking in the world of baking.
I had always liked to prepare sweets at home for my family until suddenly, when I took one of those desserts to school, the orders for chocolate cakes with chocolate cream came up, and then the tres leches cakes were added to the list.
Not only was I preparing for a school day but also to take those divine cakes to sell at school to my classmates and teachers, I really enjoyed it a lot.
The day came when I decided to go a little further and sell my cakes and sweets presenting my work to more people and for that I created an account on facebook and I confess that I did not have a photo album of my creations and I had no choice but to take and use reference images from the internet, which I let them know to potential customers.
Of course, to create my fourth on facebook that I created together with my sister who has always helped me in this venture, we created a name in which we decided to call "DolceMily delights and delicateses" in what today is called "DolceMily delights" because the delicateses seems to me a little more gourmet, more delicate and really is not really oriented at all like that.
I remember fondly my first client as DolceMily was a former classmate who asked me for a fondant cake with the theme of Halloween for her baby's birthday, I was really nervous because I felt the commitment and responsibility that they had to like it because that could lead to more customers and at the same time I also felt very afraid that it would not be as nice as I imagined.
Here I share with you this first work that, thank God, they loved and exceeded expectations, and so it was that little by little and at the same time quite fast I was making clients and getting to know more.
When I mention that I totally differ with that to undertake only need the desire and already, in my case it was not enough to want to also had to have a purchasing power to buy the material or the basic implements to start working as are the molds, mixers and spatulas to mention something. Thank God I have also had the support of my mother who gave me that financial help to cover those expenses.
I would say that the main ingredient to start a business is the desire because it is not a simple path, in most cases every business has its ups and downs and in the downs is when we really test our desire to achieve success, but that desire to undertake also goes hand in hand to be able to have an economic investment to be able to have good results.
In my experience I can say that investing in good materials to ensure the quality of the product to be delivered to the customer depends largely on its success.
In particular, I consider that I have stagnated a lot because I have not had the possibility to continue reinvesting in this business, due to other aspects of my life that have required my time, which has prevented me from offering my clients new trends and improving the quality of my work.
For some time now I have learned that to achieve success I must set clearer goals and objectives in the short and long term, then work based on them and something that is also very important to always maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, I want to continue with this venture that I am so passionate about and for that I must also spend time, reinvent and improve a lot more to ensure a higher quality of the product.
I want to grow every day in this beautiful undertaking and I feel that I can give much more, I invite you to keep an always positive attitude, and give the best in everything we do to show our love and dedication stamped on our work.
To my friends readers thank you for the time you have spent reading my post I hope it will be of great benefit, wishing you all success and great blessings, follow me on my Instagram account @dolcemilydelicias there I share part of my work.
