JenLynn Creations
We have had the awesome opportunity to get to know JenLynn and her eye-catching designs. We didn’t only purchase from this fast minded and friendly designer but we also had the opportunity to interview this savvy broad to see if she could offer our readers any insight to what goes on inside the mind of a jewelry designer and how she promotes and networks for her business.
We couldn’t be more pleased with what her talented mind creates or her exceptional customer service skills.

1. How did you choose the name for your store? I used my name! I was considering Jenlynn Jewelry but wanted to leave the name open to other creations.
2. How did your business unfold? It all started as a hobby. I enjoyed it so much and was still working at that time. All the ladies at work went nuts over my work and started buying them. There were layoffs at work due to the economy and apparently, it was a blessing in disguise!
3. Where does your inspiration stem from? That’s easy, beauty! I love to make anything you wear pop by adding different accessories.
4. How do you promote/market yourself and the products you offer? Can you give our readers any tips as to how to have their work noticed? I have a website www.jenlynncreations.com and I also sell my jewelry at an art gallery in town, River’s End Gallery. I also use pay-per-click on Google which has worked out really well. I wear my jewelry everyday and will sell it right off my body if someone loves it!
5. What are things that your company/business offers, sells, creates or does different then your competitor? My jewelry is different because each piece is one-of-a-kind and handmade. Also, I take special orders which is especially perfect for weddings or special occasions.
6. What advice can you give our readers regarding creating and maintaining relationships with your clients? Creating is simply doing something you love! Whatever your passion is, run with it. Follow thru is important with clients. If shipping something, make sure it goes out in a timely manner and is package safely. Most important, welcome feedback!!
7. What do you enjoy most about your career/job? That I am doing what I love!! I can work on jewelry for hours and it seems like minutes. I also love creating beauty and items that people love!
8. What are the skills that really help all creatives succeed regardless of their specialty? Dedication is very important. It is hard work to run your own business and you must be willing! Making it something that you love makes it seem more like fun than work anyway. Be open to new ideas and listen to your clients!
9. What social networking sites do you use? Do you feel they are helpful? I have a MySpace page but haven’t felt it helped. I have fan page on Facebook and that has been a great way to network.
10. If there was one word to describe your style of products… Unique
