Please vote for this amazing local business!

Okay, hear me out 😂 about three months ago, I told my sister, “One day, we’re gonna be on the cover of Forbes magazine.” Maybe a bit bold 🙈 None the less, to help manifest it I created the image above and for awhile it was the cover photo of my phone🤳

Fast forward, I see this ad about getting featured in Forbes and having a one-on-one convo with Damon (yep..the Shark Tank guy 🦈).

So, naturally, I was like, “This HAS got to be a sign.” I submitted our story, and now, if enough people vote for us, this could actually happen. Like, real-life😳. Oh, and plot twist: I checked the rankings, and we’re currently sitting at 33rd place—yes, 33, like a double angel number🪽If that’s not the universe waving a neon “GO FOR IT” sign, I don’t know what is❤️

So, here’s the deal: I need y’all to vote for us! Help us snag this once-in-a-lifetime conversation and some $$ to open our next store. Please click this link and help our dreams come true 🤞🏼 Pretty please with a 🍒 in top 😎
