Imagine my surprise today when I received the Best of 2015 award on Thumbtack for my business. Hopefully this will make a difference in the amount of jobs I get. Thumbtack is a site where people can find professionals to help them with a variety of jobs such as photography, decorating, and coordinating, among other things. I found this site through a Google search when I was first getting started in the Event Planning business. Professionals create a profile so they can bid for jobs, then when they get clients they can ask for a review of their work. Not to sound conceited but I have a five star rating which is what helped me get this award. It took a lot of hard work to get to this point but it was worth it and I will continue doing what I love, Event Planning, for as long as I can. Once I get more business I want to start an actual website so I can get more clients and have a portfolio online that I can direct clients to.
In current work, I am still working on the first birthday party I am planning which is this Saturday. Just a few finishing touches (making tablecloths and painting 3D letters) and I will be ready for the big event. Also got a new job, a birthday party for an elderly gentlemen. It's a simple fall theme, but every job counts and having the ability to plan an event and help make the day special for each client is worth all the effort down to the tiny details. Will keep you updated on the progress of my business, Homespun Weddings and Events, and each thing I learn on this journey through starting a business.
