Project Description

  • What is the mission of your company or project? Our mission is to design and provide quality home goods and decor to families all across America. Eventually we would love to expand beyond, if the demand arose. We design home decor and also partner with other designers to sell their home decor designs too!  
  • Describe the problem you are solving. We would love to increase our physical inventory. Currently we only operate and sell online through our website. I would love to open a pop-up shop, attend a trade/craft show, and hopefully open a store front locally one day. 
  • What is the market size/opportunity? There is a huge market for home goods and decor as many people have been stuck at home more than usual to do Covid-19. Locally the city is bustling and growing to surrounding areas. There are a ton of local trade shows and craft shows that come to Kentucky during the Fall. I have lots of products that I know would sell beautifully at these events. I would love the opportunity to grow  my company's brand awareness and sales. 
  • What is your company/product about and how does it solve the problem? My company is all about being comfortable in our space. We believe their is peace unmatched in feeling comfortable with your environment. Love the space your in and love the feeling you'll get coming into it. 
  • Why are you seeking funding and how will you spend the funding? I am seeking funding because I do not otherwise have the ability to bootstrap my dreams into reality. I believe in giving out what you receive and that given opportunity anyone can make their dreams a reality. Whether through funding or coaching, dreams are acheivable. However I do believe it takes a bit of collaborating and reaching out to truly succeed whilst not running yourself dry. I intend to use the funding to buy inventory, reserve spots at local trade shows, and set up pop-up shops where ever and when ever I possibly can. 
  • Who is on your team? As of current, I am the only one on the VibrantFire Designs team! I would love to expand in the future!

The Campaign FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What do you sell? I design and sell Home Goods and Decor Items.
  • Where is store located?  Currently we are only online. We offer 5-8 business day delivery on most items. 
  • Where will your physical store be located? Kentucky, USA. 
  • How do you make sales now? Currently online only. I market using Facebook and Instagram as well as word of mouth. I also leave business cards and post cards everywhere I can in hopes it catches the right eye. 
  • Where is your inventory currently? As of now physical inventory is non-existent. I design the products online, create a mock-up view and order 1 or 2 samples to take photos for the website. When a sale is made online I then have the design printed and mailed directly to my customer. I would love to streamline this process by creating a physical inventory base and offer in-person buying options. Most of my clients or potential customers who didn't make a purchase were ones who simply don't have time to surf the web or forgot to visit my website once the conversation ended.
