My 'lil venture. Adventuring into the unknown.

My 'lil venture. Adventuring into the unknown.

Hi all.

If there's anything I learnt last year it was that there are ups and downs. Each doesnt cancel or rule out the other and both matter, and I matter in both.

My adventure this year is to venture into new worlds with a business venture of my own.

I am going to make my own small buisness and finally get around to selling my art.

For someone who has never has a job, this is a massive thing. I don't know what work is like yet I'm launching my own brand....what am I thinking.....well I don't know.

This thread will about where this venture leads. Will I come across an impenetrable barrier and not make it far. Or will it become a massive success and my masterpieces sell for millions.

Tbh I am not so much focused on its end goal bit the journey I take to get there.

Like a piece of art, the making can be just as much fun as the finish result and matters more to me as the creator of it.

Here's to new year and new beginnings. Let's take that first step.

Hey Al.

I have some progress towards my business. I am so proud of myself for all I've achieved. I start my own market stall in two weeks...eek!! 😄

The hardest thing, yet simplest was getting my ABN. I caused myself so much anxiety and worked myself up so much over it. I thought it would be much harder than it was in the end. I got a support worked to help me and got it in no time. I'm excited to say my business and business name are now registered and in ready to go.

Another thing that surprised me is all the little things that add up to showing a matket. Like getting the basic things necessary to hosting it. I.e. the gazebo, table and chairs, the easels etc I'll display on. I have had to borrow money off my mother for it all. And other for the other things required to set up the business.

But I'm super proud. It's been 3 months since I made the decision to make a business and I've achieve so much in such little time.

I can't wait to see how it goes.

Thanks!!

@tyme yeh. I'm finally going to round to selling it locally. I got into a pretty big night market so should be good. Hopefully it won't be too hot.
