Well I finally made it back to the blog! I decided that I need to start capturing and sharing more of this journey with you hear, even if its just in text format. Hopefully more videos and pictures will be added in the future and possibly the Podcast will even get going again. I’m not completely sure what the process of capturing this story and journey will fully look like. What I can tell you is that 2 days ago when I came back here to try to start writing again I discovered that my account had been hacked! My e-mail had been deleted and another user was listed as the Admin. Not at all what you want to see when you try to get into your website. I wondered why all my passwords were no longer working and why I was not getting the rest set e-mails either. Took about a day to fix things and get back control. Which is why I never actually wrote a new post that day like I had planned to.

So today I’m back and ready to start sharing this story with you again and to tell you what has happened so far. I have a lot to acth you up on and I will try to make it a very very quick summary! Today actually marks the 1 yer anniversary of my new business partnership with my great friend and brother Scott! A year ago today I had just been home for around 10 days after returning from living in Africa for almost a full 8month. I stat in his living room and explained to him the new vision I felt God had given me for Eternal Crown Apparel ( Which at that time was called Eternal Crown Clothing, as you might recall). Fast forward from that day in 2023 to where we currently are today at the start of 2024. In a year of working together on the business here is a list of all that has happened:

  1. We renamed Eternal Crown Clothing to Eternal Crown Apparel
  2. We purchased the new website domain
  3. We came up with a new mission & vision statement. ( Awaken and Active the authentic HERO within you!)
  4. We created a new tag line (The Mark of a True HERO)
  5. We created a new logo mark
  6. We create new biz cards ( mini cards and they are so much more than what you think, more on that coming in the future)
  7. We sold our first products
  8. We designed and printed our first 5 shirts for the new brand
  9. We did our first brand photo shoot
  10. We set up and launched our new e-commerce based website
  11. We branded all of our social media accounts ( Facebook & Instagram)
  12. We set up an e-mail newsletter

 

Yeah as you can see a lot has happened during the course of the last year and all of that was just to set the foundations for what is coming this year! Here is what we are currently working on at the moment:

  1. New custom brand packaging
  2. New pack in items to improve our customer unboxing experience
  3. New HERO Cards ( Top secret and can’t tell you much more about that now!)
  4. Getting ready to start designing new products for our next collection.

 

So yes! As you can see, even though I have failed to keep you updated a lot has been happening! My goal is to be able to share more of this story and the journey this year in real time with you and at times I will also give updates and behind the scenes videos and photos. ( Don’t want to spoil anything, but just want to be transparent with this process as it is moving forward!).

So I said it once before , but  I would like to say it again! I welcome you to come join me on this journey of turning the dream, of Eternal Crown Apparel ( Which actually started back possibly as early as 2013) into a reality! Believing this year for great momentum, new milestones, new stories, and the opportunity to bless and help a whole lot of people along the way!
