362 – The Path from Crickets to 10,000 Etsy Sales with Naa Ardua Flohic
What's the trick of how to go from idea to business? My guest today shares her business journey that illustrates what it takes to make that happen.
Naa Ardua helps crafters learn how to use digital art to make handmade craft projects for their families and friends.
While living in France as an ex-pat mom, she started making digital illustrations as a way to use her artistic skills and be creative every day.
She saw that she could reach people with her art and help fellow artists, crafters, and small businesses with their projects. So she started creating SVG designs and selling them online. She now has over 10,000 sales in her Etsy shop. All of while still working a 9-to-5 job.
Now she runs her business as a full-time mompreneur, doing school pick-ups and drop-offs and running a household from abroad.
