How is it already a new year? Scratch that... how is it a new decade?!
I have been reflecting on all that 2019 has brought to Sew Custom Costumes, and I am simply amazed at how far we have come! I jumped in to the New Year full force, and I want to share some of SewCC's biggest highlights with you! Here are 6 BIG things that happened in 2019!
1- I spent 100's of hours on costumes this year, and they turned out phenomenal! I made 47 fully custom competition costumes for the 2019 season! Here are just a few!
2- SewCC launched a full accessory line! Prior to this year, I only had 1 accessory available online. (Shout out to the OG SewCC accessory- the eyelash case!) Throughout the year I consistently added to the accessory line, and you can now find hair & makeup accessories, jewelry, doll leotards, and rhinestones on the accessory page!
3- 2019 welcomed a new team of ambassadors to the SewCC fam! I loved getting to know and work with a new group of moms and daughters during our 2019 ambassador term! If you are interested in representing Sew Custom Costumes, be sure to subscribe to our email list. The next ambassador search will begin on June 14th, 2020!
4- I hired help! Without a doubt this has been the biggest blessing of 2019. Lizz came on as our communications manager, Brooke has taken over a large portion of cutting out dancewear, and I am in the process of adding a second seamstress. I am so grateful for all the help I have received throughout this year. SewCC could not continue to grow and scale without a strong team!
5- In 2019 I hired a business coach named Jennifer Allwood. Jen's Creators Inner Circle has been so helpful in growing my business and guiding me on my next steps. As an IC member, I also went to Jennifer's Platinum Event in Kansas City. This solo weekend trip in October is one of my best memories of 2019! I built long lasting friendships with other women in business, and it really pushed me to step out of my comfort zone.
6- Halfway through 2019 I introduced monthly retail! The first Friday of each month SewCC launches a new batch of dancewear (and sometimes new accessories!) New retail goes live at 9am est., but I always post sneaks leading up to the event. ;) I am knee deep in costume season, so there will not be new retail in January and February. We will pick back up with a large restock on March 6th, 2020! You can check out our current dancewear stock here!
Thank you for being here and supporting SewCC! If you were part of the SewCC family in 2019, we would love for you to share your favorite memories in the comments! If you are just joining, we can't wait to see you rock your new dancewear! Welcome to our community! We are so glad you are here!
