I love owing my own business because that means I can operate my business the way I want to, with my husband Billy’s advice and help. I am not restricted as to what I can and can’t sell within my business. With some branded products I previosuly sold, I was never allowed to have any of those products on sale, ever.
With my business, I can help my Artist friends purchase my products by having a sale. For the entire year of 2024 all of our Tile Packages will be on sale for buy two tile packages and receive one free surprise tile package with all GST and shipping included as long as all tile packages are mailed to the same mailing address.
We may occasionally have a buy one tile package get one tile package free like we did on Valentine’s Day 2024!
We previously supported many causes through our business, donating art, money, products and time since we first started our business in 2002. In the past two years, we have realized that instead of giving the way we used to, we would rather give deals to our customers. We realized that many people would love to support our business and us but they may be on a budget. This is partly why we decided to have a year long sale in 2024.
Why shouldn’t we pass some savings onto our customers? Although we are an incorporated business, there are just two of us running our business, my husband Billy and me. We have spent 21 years building our business and along the way we always found ways to give back by supporting people who have supported us.
I think that is the best part of having a business because we get to decide what and who we want to support. Our business has changed over the last 21 years. We are entering our 22nd year of business but our committment to community and our customers has always been our top priority! We started our business in 2002 by helping the Military community!
I think that how we do business is very important. We are flooded with requests from organizations and people to support their charities and events. What many people do not realize is that we have been supporting many charities and events since we started our business as a partnership in 2002. We don’t always advertise what and who we support because we don’t need recognition. Sometimes we will list who we have supported but not always. It is more important to support charities and events than it is to be known for that support.
Billy is a Canadian Army Veteran so we are listed as a recognized organization on Operation Entrepreneur, the Prince’s Trust at BuyVeteran.ca because part of our mission is to help others. Helping others by giving to charities and causes close to our hearts is why we started our business.
Helping our customers achieve their artistic goals with our products is the best feeling in the world! With our business you are not lost in thousands of customers. With us, you receive our personal attention, from us. Not many businesses can say that. All the best on your artistic journey, no matter where you are! We support you!
Thank you so much, signed your Canadian Chickadee Dolly (as my friend Yvonne named me!)
