Hey y'all!

I am doing so many posts this week! I am tired of writing!

Recently, I have been very busy with my kolache business which has left me no time to do anything. It was definitely a challenge to take on such a project with my two brothers at the end of a semester, but rewarding at the same time. Because our whole day on Tuesday was presentations and we are already supposed to do a blog post about that, I am going to share some thought about owning a business and how communication skills can help.

I am in charge of all social media and basically customer relations and PR. I post updates and pictures, and manage our Facebook account, page, and Instagram. Also, I respond to customers who post recommendations or feedback. Because of this class, I have learned to be professional in how I communicate and interact with customers.

Owning your own business changes your perspective on going to work. You aren't just going to work to be paid, but because you want to be successful. It's now MY name and reputation on the line, and everything we do, reflects personally on us as professionals and as people. You are very careful in what you do because the amount of care and passion you have for something that is yours, is a billion times more than when its not.

I am glad I have gotten to use this class in my everyday life. I am busy all of the time, but it is good to be busy. My dad always said, "If you want to do something, you gotta do it all".
