    I actually shed a tear when you said you felt sad that nobody was really interested in your business because I currently feel discouraged about my business! I too struggle with confidence in myself and I’m a little scared of rejection which makes me hesitant to approach people and promote my business but you have inspired me to keep pushing!

    • @VeryCherryCakes
      @VeryCherryCakes  4 года назад +12

      I completely understand, it's hard to gain self confidence, and in the beginning my cakes and cookies were not super pretty and nice BUT i found the hunger of wanting to be better. Don't get discouraged, keep going, keep trying, and don't ever let anyone bring you down, always move forward and learn along the way. Im happy that my video has inspired you a bit and I am excited to see how your business grows :)

    I almost shed a tear when you were telling the part of your Husband in your story. It's so beautiful to have a faithful partner on your side that sees beyond you and believes strongly in you. I'm SO GRATEFUL for my Husband... I haven't even started my business but because of Him I've already perfected cheesecake art and now moving to elegant mousse art then I'll start taking orders. Thank you for your videos ♥️

    • @VeryCherryCakes

    Thank you for sharing a very HONEST experience as a small baking biz owner. I would love to do this as a small side biz myself but it's kinda intimidating. Most ppl on RUclips only seem to share their success stories & the glamorous side of things. Very much appreciated a realistic and encouraging story. Much success to you! ☺️

    • @VeryCherryCakes
      @VeryCherryCakes  2 года назад

      Thank you so much for watching, it’s definitely difficult but remember to start small and give yourself the opportunity to try it even if it doesn’t work out. ❤️

    Omg girl I literally cried watching your video. I can definitely relate. I started in September of 2019 with a cupcake sale. And from there my business grew. My husband didn’t believe in it in the beginning but after I sold out he was in shocked and became my right hand man lol now we both have our small business from home and blessed to say that it all began with a cupcake.

    @sunshinetreatswtx 4 года назад +3

    Yes girl! I felt this in my soul! I live in Odessa and I started my party decor business here. I don't make cakes but I make other treats. I remember that exact feeling of where you want to try to get business and when someone takes you up on it, you kind of freak out and back out of it. I had that exact feeling you did. So it made total sense to me. This video is very inspiring. I'm about 2 years into my business now and I love it.

    • @VeryCherryCakes
      @VeryCherryCakes  4 года назад +1

      yes! it's scary but I am so glad I went forward with it. Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your story, good luck

    Omg. I thought you were going to say everyone showed up at the end or something!!😱 Thank you so much for sharing your story! I'm still in that first year struggling a little. I get orders here and there. Would love to learn more from you!! 😍😍🎂

    • @VeryCherryCakes
      @VeryCherryCakes  4 года назад +1

      omg i wish people would have showed up lol, but in a way I'm glad they didn't because it taught me the worst case scenario and how to make it into something better. Thank you so much for watching and for your comment, i hope you learn a lot from my videos :)

    Hi. I know this is an old video, but I am looking to start selling cakes, I only make for friend and family now so I’m doing research to begin selling outside of that and I came across this video. I want you to know this has helped give me confidence. I felt your sadness so much because I have been there before with friends and family , having so much cake or cupcakes left and feeling like no one wants your product. Thank you for sharing your story. Know that it has at least helped one person. ♥️ also you just gained a new follower.

    I used to make cupcakes for family and friends and had people asking if I would do it as a business…and like you said you tried to back out…well I did back out. I really loved baking and making special cupcakes. I got creative with the flavours and decorating them. I don’t do it much now…but thinking to get back into it.

    So nice and sweet of you to be sharing this to everyone..Im baking as well for children and families and been watching youtube tutorials on baking cakes and cupcakes.. i have a big voice inside me pushing me to do it and some part of me as well is saying the “what if’s..” haha Thank you for sharing this to me Im hoping too that i can do this full time and make a good living out of it too. I love baking But sometimes things can get frustrating around it.. But the good thing in there is that I keep pushing like i have more love for it than hate haha.. i wish you well in life and in your cake business!

    I love your channel and how humble you are. I’ve learned so much from you. Baking/cake decorating has always been a hobby that I enjoyed and I’m considering turning it into a business. I make cakes for my friends and family now but I have so much more that I need to Learn before I feel comfortable actually selling my cakes. Thank you for all the advice you share💞

I’m finally gonna take plunge into a cake business(starting out in the side)! Wish me luck!

Confidence and consistency is key to make it I have a handful of cakes I’ve made I think are tv worthy lol aswell but getting orders are hard I’m now thinking about baking 200 cupcakes with my cards an just passing them out to everyone I come in contact with! I want more orders not just from friends an family !!!
