Today we’d like to introduce you to Rese Clifton.
Hi Rese, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I started my business 5,5 years ago as a business support company for small errands and virtual assistance. As I grew in experience, I began to meet new business owners who required more advanced support. My career took a turn in a fantastic direction after meeting Kara Sax from The Sax agency and hired as an event consultant for The Amber Rose Awareness walk. Here I funneled a deal with USC and this deal lead to USC X Amber Rose: OpenED. I worked on the Awareness walk project for three years and continued to support firms and entrepreneurs in their academic and activation event logistics. When the pandemic hit, I was forced to pivot my career. Considering event logistics and operational structure where my expertise, I acquired hard skills in project management state HR compliance and E-Commerce. By June 2020, I acquired multiple E-Commerce clients and worked in this field 50% and the other 50% supporting clients in multiple industries with structuring the operations for their businesses.
I have now began to structure a 2nd business which is a vitamin and lifestyle brand. Black Girl Vitamins: Vitamins customized to the needs of black women and Perseverance Vitamins which are custom vitamins for everyone, these vitamins are created via natural elements to support mental health and wellness.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
This has not been a smooth road. I spent the last five years not only perfecting my craft but consistently learning on the job and taking crash courses to ensure I could support my clients in their structures as they grew. Being an entrepreneur and pivoting your business focus while the rest of the world is doing the same was no easy task. I’ve learned to simply dedicate myself to a student of life and accept the crash courses as they come along.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Jetsetter Consultants: Consulting firm specializing in operational structure for multiple industries including e-commerce, event companies, warehouse logistics and more, I believe Jetsetter Consultants is different from most brands because we care about our clients and handle their business needs like they’re ours. We are time and budget conscious, data-driven to support our gut instincts and we back our client’s creative with analytical reviews. We typically work with our clients an average of 3-6 months however, execution begins immediately and results are seen right at the 30 day mark.
Black Girl Vitamins and Perseverance Vitamins: This brand feels like my life’s work. I have truly taken my time. I never had a desire to have an e-commerce brand of my own. I fancied the idea of making money in my sleep but my deepest desire has always been to be of support and service. After going through a really life-altering depression and seeking help from my doctor whom prescribed medicine and seeking counseling whom did not have much of a structure to the madness, I went on a self-healing journey. I traveled alone seeking natural remedies and after a nine months of research, I began developing the brands. I will launch my crowdfunding campaign under Kick start top of December and my company officially launch December 2022! For now, you are able to purchase sample packs by reaching out to info@blackgirlvitamins.com
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
I used to believe in working hard play hard. Now I value the law of attraction and the power of least effort. I believe that balance is achievable and although there will be seasons where we are exhausted from giving our all, life will allow seasons where we are able to reap immediate good harvest from our dedication. I believe we can be successful and take it easy.
