Today we’d like to introduce you to Yasmine Bedward.
Yasmine, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I followed my mom’s career in tech and used everything she taught me growing up about web design, coding and developed my own social media management company. I wanted to have the freedom to travel but still earn an income working remotely (even before the pandemic when working from home became what it is today).
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
There are moments when a business feels unsteady and I panic, but I’m working on having faith over fear (Issa process, tho!). I came across the most challenges when dealing with difficult clients who refused to pay me on time or at all. Scaling was hard because I needed to hire employees in order to grow my company, but I couldn’t afford to expand my team without taking on new clients. It took months of practice and patience, but I found a solid client roster and a team that feels way more aligned with my core and company values than it has in the past.
As you know, we’re big fans of The Bedward Branding Agency. For our readers who might not be as familiar, what can you tell them about the brand?
Even though my name is on the virtual door, there is a team of designers, managers, admin assistants, and copy editors that work with me to provide an intentional social media experience for our clients and their audiences. We specialize in digital marketing, including social media management, Facebook ADs, newsletters, SMS marketing, web and graphic design.
I think the thing that separates us from other social media management firms/branding agencies is that we are a new and small business that develops big brands and works alongside larger corporations. It’s fun to be included in these millions of dollar deals and have conversations with corporations that help us with some of the smaller businesses that come along who are trying to grow to that level. We’re in the room where it happens, and that feels so good!
What’s next?
My plan for the future of my company is to keep growing and expanding daily. It can be challenging to push through the hard days, but I see our hard work paying off when amazing opportunities like this come across my desk. It’s challenging, and I’m constantly working, but I believe you have to work at a superhuman pace in order to get to a certain level of success.
