How does $1,600 in small shop prizes sound to you? You could be one of six lucky reps to share these AMAZING prizes from a bunch of great small shops! Keep reading to find out how to enter!

When I decided to open a small online shop in 2014, I started out like most other shop owners… with big dreams and a very small amount of cash. I had decided to leave my full time job and try to make it as my own boss. It was the scariest time of my life. Although I knew we had great products and a pretty decent website, I had no idea how I could possibly get the word out about our new family business. Advertising and marketing wasn’t something I had the money for, but I knew that without it, there would be no sales. I was determined to make it though, no matter what.

I tried posting on Facebook, hoping that our friends and family would share with their friends and family. But a week and maybe two sales later, I knew that it wasn’t enough and unless we were going to eat Ramen Noodles for breakfast, lunch and dinner, we needed to grow our business faster than that. While I love Ramen Noodles, there are only so many you can eat, you know?! I knew I needed to turn this small shop into a 2nd income for our family. This wasn’t just something I wanted, it was something I needed. Things felt hopeless until I stumbled across a small article talking about brand reps. I was immediately intrigued and wasted no time. Our first brand rep search was posted the following day. I had no idea what I was doing, but I dove right in and it was the best decision I ever made.

Fast forward three years to today… I have worked with so many different Mamas and even a few Dads. While I was looking for a business relationship that provided advertising and photos in exchange for free or discounted items, I wound up finding so much more in these amazing humans… I found support, friendships, laughter, shoulders to cry on and a sincere love for small shops and their owners that I never knew existed. Without each of them, I am not sure where I would be or where my family would be. I’m not sure how I would have paid my bills, been able to take the girls to extra curricular activities or even have enough money to buy food some weeks, I kid you not. When things were looking dim, my brand rep team was the sunshine, lighting the way for my small business. They kept me motivated and gave me the strength to keep going.

Life gets hectic, especially for small shop owners and we may forget to stop and appreciate the important people in our lives. While we may not say it enough, I’m sure I can speak on behalf of most small shop owners in saying that without our brand reps, we wouldn’t have a small business! We wouldn’t have beautiful images to share on our social media and on our website. We wouldn’t have the new customers that they brought in through promotion, pictures and word of mouth. We wouldn’t have a strong group of people to bounce ideas off of. We wouldn’t have the honesty and sincere concern for our well-being, like we do because of them. We wouldn’t have the option to spend more time with our families instead of working a 9-5 (or two) every day. Our brand reps are the backbone of our small shop. They are the real heroes and it’s time we shouted it from the roof tops!

Let’s take a moment to celebrate each and every person that takes time of their day to take and edit pictures, share our images and images of their family in/with our products, interact on our social media feeds and talk to others about the small shops they love. Let’s tell them how amazing and appreciated they really are! And to my personal team, I love you all from the bottom of my heart! (go check them out, they ROCK!).

Thank you brand reps, for your loyalty, your love and your time. We LOVE you!

Hi there! I’m instagram.com/SparkThreads

I’d like to nominate members of my team, as well as some amazing people I’ve had the pleasure of working with for years!!

1) First off www.instagram.com/hangin_with_hannah_! She and her mama have been a part of my life (shop and friends!) since she was 2 years old. She’s now 9, and these ladies have done nothing but support myself and my little shop. Even when I didn’t feel worthy of that support sometimes!

2) www.instagram.com/4littlearrows Where do I start with this family…. I met them a very short time ago through a comment on a post about a rocking 70s outfit. We were fast friends, and I came to quickly learn how supportive and giving Summer’s beautiful heart is!

3) www.instagram.com/brinleyvalentina Chelsea is AMAZING! I love her and little Brinley so much!

Hi. I am the owner of @cayleeandco. All my reps are awesome but I would like to nominate @cest.la.amelia she has been a loyal customer/rep since my bow shop opened. She is now an ambassador for my shop and goes above the call of duty to help me succeed. She has supported me through all the ups and downs of this journey. She has become a dear friend to me. She deserves to win this.

Second I nominate @sheleavesasparkle she is my 2nd ambassador. She is an awesome rep and goes above and beyond to get me awesome quality photos for my shop. A big help to my brand.

Third is @magnoliasunflower this twin mama is a genuine small shop supporter. She dresses her kids in handmade from head to toe. She is hard working and is very loyal and reliable.

Fourth is @captainkl she helps with things behind the scenes like editing pics cause I couldn’t quite master it. She is there when I need feedback and opinions 24/7. She another veteran rep on my team.

Fifth is @addy.and.zoe they are newbies to my team starting as Bes they quickly got promoted to rep because she is loyal and hard working. She genuinely supports my brand.

All my reps are the bomb dot com but these 5 go hard in the paint for me and I could not do it without them. They deserve to win.

Hello! I’m the owner of @shopbeingbabes and although it’s so hard to choose because I love my entire team, I’d love to nominate the three ladies that have helped me so much more than I could’ve ever imagined.
– @aiden_wayne01_22
She has been with me from the very start, before I even opened! I know that I can count on her under any circumstance. She always provides amazing pictures and has such a bright positive attitude!
– @chi_and_braxton
She is more than a rep, working with her has made me a new friend! She’s always doing whatever she can to help my little shop grow, providing me with ideas, pictures, you name it, and she’s the sweetest woman!
– @saraidianne
I don’t even know where to begin with how wonderful she is to work with, she’s so positive and such a blessing to have on my team. She helps me without me even asking! She provides amazing pictures, my mood changes completely ever time I get an email from her!
