Real Charleston Women
Shopping. We do it in all sorts of forms. It's kinda why you're here reading this.
All of these things come from a source. A someone. Someone had an idea. Whether they created the item, gathered a team together to perform a job, or studied a topic & now educates others on it. As a consumer with a pretty good understanding of marketing, it's more important for me to know about the source. The someone who had this idea in which I'm interested in.
Gettin' real here y'all, but think about it. You're more apt to do business with someone when you like & trust them. I'm more interested in the face behind the brand. I want to know more about the person really than the brand itself. That's a deciding factor for me.
Who is the real person responsible here?
I welcome you to the Real Charleston Women Series.
Take a peek at some of the up & coming female entrepreneurs in our Charleston, SC area & learn exactly where these rising brand personalities come from.
