Today we’d like to introduce you to Jiel Combs.
Hi Jiel, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I’m from Louisville, GA. I moved to Macon back in 2014 to attend Middle GA State University. I always had a passion of starting my own business one day. What drives me everyday is a promised I made to my mother who passed unexpectedly in 2010. “I promised her no matter what I will become successful”. That added an endless amount of fuel to my spirit.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Absolutely not! Honestly, everything depends on what type of mindset you have, who you hang around, and what goals you set for yourself. Everyday you have to reevaluate decisions and movements.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
Hill Side Candles specializes in luxury homemade candles, wax melts, and room sprays. Our candles last over 65 hours. What makes our candles so unique isn’t just our amazing scents. It’s our customers bc everything is made with them in mind.
Do you have any advice for those looking to network or find a mentor?
Networking is key. No matter who you meet. Either a door is going to open or a door is going to close. Another great thing to do is to become a mastermind within your area of choice.
