Hello Steemers! We are a husband + wife creative tandem. Self-employed and against all odds, proving everyone around us that we CAN MAKE IT!

in introduceyourself •  8 years ago 

Hello everyone! :wave:
I chanced upon this mystifying Steemit over at Instagram where folks promoted Steemit as a potential place to make some moolah. Yup, that is the motivation. Who doesn't need it?
We've all got kids to feed, a home to mortgage, bills to pay and medical expenses. :family:
But urgently, we are at our last two months and need to hasten and use all resources we can find to make sure we do not run dry! My husband and I are used to eating once a day but this is not possible for our 2 yo and 4 month old darlings. We sincerely hope to have your attention and support :smiley:

I have never been good at introducing myself or reaching out for help, but for the sake of our family, HERE GOES! :bowtie:

My husband and I work in tandem and embark everything in partnership.
We operated a SOHO design business for print and web since 2011 but after 10 years of meeting deadlines night after night, we began to feel burnout and frankly, it began to feel a dread serving clients who are more interested in squeezing us dry for an amount of money that just does not justify. At the same time, we yearned to return to working with our hands, to create something physical which can be felt and appreciated.

The brand JeannieRichard jewelry was incepted in 2011 and we are proud of our one of a kind designs and quality workmanship. We set up shop at Etsy and was well received with star reviews.
However, as with every business, we need to heighten our brand visibility to survive the competition and economy trends. We need to continue to spread our brand awareness! :muscle:
Our designs are distinctly modern yet with a flair of mod-egyptian. We primarily use beads to create our designs as we love the flexibility of form and myriad colors! As creatives, we constantly push the boundaries of beaded jewelry of being a hobby thing or overly-grand looking pieces. We aim to create everyday pieces that can be worn with every style, ultimately to become your sentimental go-to piece. :two_hearts:

If you love what you see, PLEASE do support our work.
All our pieces are affordable and do not break your bank at all, but with support from you, we can make it!
Shop JeannieRichard on Etsy, thank YOU :bow:

@jeannierichard Great post! I'm loving the designs. We're having a promo over here https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@williambanks/announce-steembots-com-your-source-for-everything-bot-related-now-hiring
I was thinking it might be a good idea to give away something to our early supporters.
Do you accept steem for payment? Also can you maybe do something custom with the steembots logo?
Thanks!

That's a good idea @williambanks :D
I am still a blur with steem money - how does it relate to real money??
So much to read!
