Meet Kera Copeland

We had the good fortune of connecting with Kera Copeland and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kera, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I wanted to provide great custom party favors at an affordable price . I feel everyone should have the opportunity to provide custom party favors for their party goers that last a life time and leave partygoers in aww.

What should our readers know about your business?

“What sets me apart is my passion for creativity, innovation, and customer satisfaction. I’m most proud of building a business that showcases my artistic skills and brings joy to others. My journey wasn’t easy – I faced numerous challenges, from learning new skills to navigating financial struggles. But I overcame them by staying determined, seeking guidance, and embracing failures as opportunities for growth.

One key lesson I’ve learned is the importance of resilience and adaptability. I’ve had to pivot my business strategy multiple times, but each time, I’ve emerged stronger and wiser. I’ve also learned that building a supportive community and nurturing meaningful relationships is crucial to success.

I want the world to know that my brand is built on love, hard work, and a commitment to excellence. I’m dedicated to empowering others through my story and inspiring them to chase their dreams, no matter how impossible they may seem. My brand is more than just a business – it’s a reflection of my heart and soul.

I hope that my story encourages others to embrace their uniqueness, take risks, and believe in themselves. I’m excited to continue growing, learning, and spreading positivity through my business and beyond!”

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Here’s an updated shoutout:

“I want to give a huge shoutout to the incredible people who have supported me on my journey to becoming a business owner.

First and foremost, I want to thank my amazing parents, who have been my rock and inspiration every step of the way. Their unwavering support, guidance, and financial backing have enabled me to turn my passion into a business. I’m grateful for their creative influence, which has rubbed off on me and fuels my love for design and innovation.

I also want to extend my gratitude to my incredible boyfriend, who has been my daily source of strength and encouragement. Through every hardship, failure, and challenge, he has been there to support me financially, mentally, and emotionally. He’s been my partner in every sense of the word, even going so far as to help me with customer deliveries when I couldn’t make it myself. His unwavering belief in me and my abilities has meant the world, and I couldn’t have done it without him.

And lastly, I want to thank my friends who introduced me to the world of party favors and sparked my interest in this niche. Their enthusiasm and trust in me to bring their designs to life was the catalyst for my journey.

I’m so grateful to have these amazing people in my life, who have helped shape me into the businesswoman I am today. Thank you, Mom, Dad, and boyfriend, for being my biggest cheerleaders and supporters. I’m excited to continue making you proud and growing my business with your love and encouragement!”
