Today we’d like to introduce you to Leslie Allred.
Hi Leslie, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for sharing your story with us – To start, maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers.
I have a background in the service and fitness industry. In college, I worked three jobs and changed my major multiple times before deciding to branch out independently. I had the pleasure of working at some of the top bars and restaurants at the time, but I knew working for myself would be much more rewarding.
We all face challenges, but looking back, would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The biggest struggle for any small business owner is trying to please everyone. You can’t! Understand your target. Build a brand that is true to You. Create a plan, but be willing to make changes if needed.
Thanks for sharing that. So, you could tell us a bit more about your business.
We offer Açaí Bowls, Prepped Meals, and healthy snacks/beverages! I am passionate about clean living and believe that a healthy lifestyle starts in the kitchen! Beach Bowls offers clean and healthy choices for experienced and beginners, including gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and organic options. Whether looking for a quick, guilt-free lunch option or stocking up on healthy meals to sustain you weekly, we have you covered.
