My Story
I know exactly how it feels to have goals and aspirations about business development, but to be extremely lost and unsure about how to accomplish them. This is a common dilemma that most entrepreneurs experience- brilliant ideas, but uncertainty about how to pursue your dreams in order to make them a reality. Luckily you are not alone! This journal promises to provide the insight I wish I had when I started.
Back in 2014 around 8:30pm I was in bed when my cell phone rang; it was my friend Kairre. She asked if I knew how to make nut cakes. I sleepily said "No". She was running a special with Bajan Treats for the month of November but she could not get through to her regular nut cake supplier. I told her I didn't know how to make nut cakes and figured the conversation would be over; it wasn't. I could sense that she was smirking behind the telephone, "Go on YouTube" she said without hesitation. My friends know that I love Google and YouTube.If they were thinking about trying something, they'd call me first and chances are, I'd tried it already or read something about it, lol. Nonetheless, I laughed at her suggestion, but she was serious and said that she was bringing the ingredients to me immediately.
Kairre got to my house in about fifteen minutes with a ton of nuts to shell which was a very painful and monotonous task. I managed to find one single nut cake video after searching for almost thirty minutes. My first attempt was a DISASTER! I am a determined person, so I tried again and the second batch was perfect. Although I only managed to make eight nut cakes, she was delighted!
What started as an innocent attempt to help a friend, turned in to more than I could have ever imagined as K's D'Liteful Treats 246 was birthed. We create edible masterpieces from baked goods, fruits and chocolate. Additionally, through business consultations, I have helped numerous entrepreneurs scale their businesses and go from struggling and scared to praised and paid! As a result, it is my mission to do the same for you! There are two main things I want you to take away from this journal:
1. Sometimes, people have more faith in you than you often have in yourself and all it takes is a gentle push. When this amazing opportunity occurs- ACT!
2. Perseverance seldom fails.
