The Drive: What challenges have you overcome?
Buying new skincare, especially for children, can be daunting. Having children of our own with sensitive skin, we know firsthand how upsetting it can be when you try out a new product and your bub ends up having a reaction.
All children’s skin is different, and we wanted to give our customers the confidence to try something new – so we started offering free samples through our website.
Parents now can make sure that the products are suitable for their children’s skin, before investing in a full-sized product. We have had so many happy (and relieved) customers who have finally found a product that works for their children!
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
Owning your own business is so much fun, but also high pressure and can be quite overwhelming at times. Making sure you have realistic goals, and the time to be able to achieve them is key. We all wish there were a few more hours in the day!
We wouldn’t have been able to do this without a good support network around us, which we are so lucky to have. It’s not easy, but if you have a great team of people to help you out, anything is possible.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
We have so many things lined up – so watch this space!
We have some exciting new products about to launch, ready for the winter months which we have had so much fun developing. There also are some really great opportunities coming up for us in terms of export – we can’t wait to showcase our NZ-made product to the rest of the world.
However, the most important development of them all is coming at the end of March – Krissy and Rob have bub number two on the way, who we are so excited to meet!
