Episode 20: Eloise Stewart- Relationships Are Key, Start With Who You Know

Eloise Stewart of Eloise Design Company is spot on with figuring out the life and career challenges both for herself and for others and creating a creative space for others. The decision to begin her business started with helping people, but she first reached out to others to help her start out and she looked toward honest mentors. School was a struggle for her but she worked hard to memorize or study to make things click and that helped her become the entrepreneur she is today and makes her a better teacher with bite size learning steps. Eloise says her biggest strength are the people put in her path who she collaborates and partners with who teach and stretch her and give her opportunities. Her team divides work and they spend time monthly to brainstorm and get the plans set with everyone contributing both for their own company and the clients they serve. Books that impress Eloise include Contagious: Why Things Catch On by Jonah Berger. Marketing is relational for both individuals and businesses—need to stop comparing themselves to others.Song used by permission “STOMP” written by Donica Knight and Jim HuffMusic "STOMP" used by permission of artist Donica Knight Holdman and Jim Huff
