Meet Vanessa Mendez of inXposure PhotoBooth in South Central LA

Today we’d like to introduce you to Vanessa Mendez.

Vanessa, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
inXposure was started by three sisters that were inspired by 1 of our current partners that has a face painting business. Helping her with her business motivated us to form a strong team and grow to provide fun supplies for any type of gathering! inXposure was created to see people enjoy themselves more and have unforgettable memories.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Starting a business is not easy at all. We are a group of three and we still struggle. Working in a group can be challenging at times because of different opinions and ideas, but we always come together to try and find the best solution for a successful business. Another struggle was finding the appropriate audience to promote our business to.

Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about inXposure PhotoBooth – what should we know?
inXposure was an idea that grew from facepaintingbyemma; a business started by one of our partners. Emma motivated her business partners to make something out of our free time. A photo booth that would not only be fun for others, but for us too. We are most proud of coming together and jumping into this idea to grow. We are proud of being able to push one another to become better through the process. There are many Photo Booth businesses, but inXposure offers more than one photo booth with packages that include face painting, glitter tattoos, tables, and chairs.

Is there a characteristic or quality that you feel is essential to success?
Creativity and finding different ways to promote are the most important characteristics for our business to succeed.
