Thank you to Jodie, Kim and Carrie at Three Wishes for sharing how they turned their "wish" to own their own business into a reality. Treating us to breakfast and coffee, they talked about how important it was to find the perfect location before they opened, and how their spot within More on Main's Main Street Market was a key to success. They also walked us through their process of opening and how their store has grown in its seven years of operation, including how they approach co-ownership and work with each other. They spoke about how downtown businesses help each other through cooperative events and promoting each other. The trio said they were not afraid to reach out to colleagues or experts for advice on certain aspects of the business and encouraged us to use those resources.
