We look forward to hosting our monthly Crave Chat at LYNNSteven in March 2010!

What do you love most about opening up your own business?

The pride I feel everyday when I open the door to the boutique and knowing that I made my dream a reality. It may have taken a lot of blood, sweat and tears but I couldn’t be prouder.

What is your best selling line and why?

Right now the best selling line is LINE, a knitwear company based out of Toronto. The quality of the knits and the huge array of styles, there is a piece for everyone, young & old.

What is your favorite spa in town?

Not much time to be hitting the spa’s lately but I love going to Spruce Body Lab. A little infrared sauna and microdermabrasion, which I find the most relaxing thing in the world, strange, I know.

What advice would you give future entrepreneurs?

Trust your instincts, they are usually right. Stick to your vision, don’t let other people tell you what is right for your business. Ask for help when you need it, especially at the beginning.  Don’t be afraid to say “no”. Tell everyone that you are starting a business, you just never know who may be able to help you out. Finally, get to know other entrepreneurs, they are in the same boat as you and it is great to listen to their experiences.
