The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
The biggest challenge for me was to quit my career as a technology teacher, recover from double cancer, and start-up our business with zero experience! I am absolutely enjoying learning e-commerce now and networking with other creatives.
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
Dare to dream, plan, explore and take the risk! Believe in yourself, learn, and give back to people. In these Covid-dominated times, it is challenging for many small businesses like ours, but being hopeful, authentic, and committed to hard work is our focus.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
People and processes are important to us. So, our hope is to be an enduring, child-safe and planet-friendly brand, with timeless style. A brand that does things right and does it well! Our dream is for Paul and Paulie to be a Kiwi brand that is loved and trusted by babies, toddlers, and parents all over the world, for its comfort, fun, resilience, and safety for everyday living!
