Today we’d like to introduce you to Jeremiah Ingram.
Jeremiah, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
How did JerryBeadzzz LLC start? Well, let’s say I had a praying mother (as I am sure we all have someone in our life who is our prayer warriors). I had always had a passion for design and working with my hands. I wanted to have a lapis lazuli bracelet, but I could not find a bracelet in any of the crystals shops I would visit. I was taught from my mom “if you see something in life you want, go after it.” My mother (Thelma Ingram) passed away in March of 2017; after battling multiple sclerosis for about 20 years. She was a praying woman, and I know this business is one of the blessings she asked the Lord to grant to me. Thank God, she is finally able to rest in power.
Has it been a smooth road?
Without struggle, there is no progress. The road to JerryBeadzzz has not been smooth, but it has been a great journey, so far. I live every experience in life is used to teach us a lesson. I have learned so much this past year after becoming an LLC.
I have had to learn how to optimize my time, how to properly invest my time within my business and with my personal life.
Also, attending my first festival granted me the opportunity to learn so much about myself and about what people want.
Staying focus on long terms goals and the power of now is what helps keep me going. If I only say the future will easy, but I put no energy or effort in the time of now… I will never reach the future I desire.
We’d love to hear more about your work.
Honestly, all the bracelets and necklaces you see on my page are handmade!!!! And are original, there would never be a duplicated (unless it’s in my JerryBeadzzz collector item).
Is our city a good place to do what you do?
I believe Atlanta is a great place for any business entrepreneurs. You just need to be able to stay focus and lee a hustler mentality. You will always get business, but you will need to work for it… and watch your business grow.
