Today we’d like to introduce you to Simone Banks.
Hi simone, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
How I started my balloon business is really simple, my daughters 1st birthday was approaching and I was looking for a “balloon-o-gram’ person to deliver her balloons, and results came up slim to none. Fortunately I create the opportunity to make someone’s day , because I knew I wasn’t the only mother going to experience this. I started to do my research and my mission became clearer- balloons go beyond birthdays, or anniversaries. My slogan “Who Do You Choose To Butterr Up Today?” stems from my philosophy of, it takes two seconds to be kind, we just chose balloons as they are visibly intiscing. We build bouquets based on the recipient hobbies, quirky likes and inspirations. From 2018 until current, we have been delivering joyous balloon bouquets in Columbus and surrounding areas. We also provide balloon donations for the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Absolutely NOT! Events going all type of wrong, balloons fly away, order shipments gets delayed, also challenges of financial gains for capital funding for expansion
