My business journey to the digital world.

Posted on July 6, 2021July 14, 2021

In December 2020 I decided to take the plunge and leave my day job to become a business owner. I started a clothing brand and company called TLC.

It was extremely exciting and challenging at the same time because developing and starting a business requires a high level of risk, expertise, and dedication to increase the chances of succeeding.

The difficulties I encountered

I encountered several difficulties like driving a lot of traffic to my website, failing to deliver products on time.

My advertising campaigns were not successful and the potential returns were not achieved

I failed to reach other corners of the country because my marketing skills were poor and I knew less about the digital world.

Steps I took to overcome my difficulties
