Week #12

This week we were able to do a trial and error assignment and submit a report with our work. We were to research an entrepreneur who overcame obstacles to get where he or she is today. At first I thought, “well this is going to be a little difficult, I don’t know any off the top of my head.” As I began searching the web, I found several examples of successful entrepreneurs who had really tough trials get in their way of success. I liked the quote by Henry Ford that said success is 99% failure. These entrepreneurs have to go through a lot of failure to get where they are or were.

This week was a tough week for our business Custom Pillow Covers. We had finalized our last sales for the activity and were preparing to close the business. As we sent out the text messages, our customers were very sad to see us go. They became like family to us over the past weeks. Starting a small business has been challenging, but extremely rewarding. I would like to come up with something new and continue to do that on the side. My husband helped me a lot with Custom Pillow Covers and it has brought us closer together.
