Button & Co http://www.buttonandco.com/blog Handmade in Ireland Sat, 21 Jan 2012 22:11:41 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 The wonderful world of self employment! http://www.buttonandco.com/blog/2012/01/the-wonderful-world-of-self-employment/ http://www.buttonandco.com/blog/2012/01/the-wonderful-world-of-self-employment/#comments Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:12:50 +0000 ElaineSarah http://www.buttonandco.com/blog/?p=63 Continue reading →]]> So, I’ve been thinking what angle to give my blog for a few days. In one way I’m hoping it will just grow it’s own legs but I also wanted a general theme to give it. I’m hoping it will be my way of getting to chat to you guys directly but I also want it to be helpful! I’ve decided to go with my own story of self employment  the ups and downs, the ins and outs and what keeps me striving for success!

For so many we have a similar thought process but each of our journeys are individual and It’s nice to be able to get advice from somewhere other than a text book, which, although the theory’s are great, most not really relevant to real world scenarios.

I’m going to begin somewhere in the middle of my journey because, to be honest, I had a whole other eventful life story before Button & Co. Yes, it led to this but I don’t want to bore you from the outlook!

I’m going to start from the Dragons Den experience but I’m not sure how long a blog post should be so keep your eyes out for the next one!

Well god loves a tryer!!??   I suppose I could start with putting a picture of myself up here so you know who your talking to! (Oh Yeah I’m the one with the green jumper in the back!!!)

Our very first trade show outside of Ireland. I’m very excited about this new chapter for the journey of Button & Co. It’s been such an exciting one so far with lots of ups and a few downs and this is a great challenge for which we are ready! It’s very difficult to keep your head above the doomy, gloomy, rubbish when its shoved in your face everyday but rise above it and you’ll realise success is within reach. We have had great feedback so far from the U.K so I here’s hoping!
