WHEW! π
The INSANITY that comes with helping businesses and organizations create the perfect merch for their favorite events is just part of the territory when you own a business like this! πβ€οΈ
Homecoming week for so many of us small businesses is basically CHRISTMAS! π Busy, chaotic, stressful, and fueled by a whole lot of caffeine, late nights, and determination! π€ͺ
But I can honestly say that I had an AMAZING group of ladies surrounding me this week, rolling up their sleeves, powering through the chaos, and helping get ALL the work done! πβ€οΈ I couldnβt be more thankful for the extra hands, the laughs, the teamwork, and the willingness to jump in wherever needed.
This week was a reminder that behind every small business is a whole lot of hard work, a little bit of insanity, and sometimes an incredible team that helps keep it all together! π₯°
To everyone who trusted The Rusty Pearl with your Homecoming merch this year, THANK YOU! Your support means more than you know! πΎππ
Holly Flinn Sara Asberry and Anne Pegelow thank you so much for all your hard work! Holly you are a savage and Iβm so grateful for your late nights and long days in the shop this week!
Audrey Prewitt Rowe thank you for always being the biggest small business supporter of this small business! I appreciate that you trust me so freely with your brand!! And thank you to The PAC for bringing all the spirit into the shop!!
Now, if you need me, Iβll probably be recovering, catching up on sleep, and getting ready for the next round of crazy! πβ€οΈ
GOOD LUCK PANTHERS!!
