We had the good fortune of connecting with Nicole Witherspoon and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Nicole, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
It didn’t take me long to figure out that I didn’t want to spend my life working long hours tearing my body down to make another person rich. I figured the work that I was putting in for other companies I could do the same for myself. I also wanted to show my kids and influence them to have an entrepreneur mindset.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I have a cleaning company name A Touch of Love Professional Cleaning, LLC that specializes in commercial cleaning. I’m most proud about negotiating and landing my first major contract all by myself. Someone that I had been talking with about the business found me a point of contact and I took over from there. I wouldn’t say it was hard but it was kind of a long process and it took a lot of patience. The hardest part is finding dependable and trustworthy employees, so I made a decision and promise to myself, that even if I had to do the work all by myself it was going to be done. That’s just how determined I was. I’ve learned to stand on my work and worth and in time everything else will fall in place. I want the world to know that I plan on taking my company as far as it can go and this will not be my only company as I am currently working on others.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would eat at Sea Salt because I simply love the food and atmosphere. We would go to JIJU to have a spa day and get pampered and maybe do a little shopping.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My close friends and family really pushed me to grow. Whenever I had doubt they would always tell me I could do it and they believed in me.
