From Big Box Store to Home Studio to Storefront, Catching Up with Kirstyn Gillies
In this week’s episode, we are catching up with Kirstyn Gillies, a New York Bridal Seamstress who was on the podcast 2 years ago! So much has changed in her business over the past two years, so we took this as an opportunity to catch up!
Two years ago, Kirstyn shared how she left her career at a big box store to start her own bridal alterations home studio, and in this episode, she shares how she left her home studio and opened a storefront!
We talk about how she makes more money now by adding on packages and upping her ticket prices and roadblocks she has faced while growing her business. She also shares ways she has upgraded the back end of her business, as well as advice she has for seamstresses at every stage of business.
