 At SmallBusinessBank.com, a division of Gardner Bank, we serve micro business customers in the wide range of their business' life-cycles, from pre-start up, to mature business company. Regardless of what stage of success you have taken your micro business to, you can count on us to share your story. This weeks story, in their own words, is Michelle Tom Jewelry.

Michelle Tom Jewelry unites the healing properties of neodymium rare earth magnets with modern, simple designs that embrace beautiful curves and bright hues in precious metals and gem stones.  We are committed to encouraging pain relief without the use of medication, and promote holistic healing and overall wellness with Magnet Therapy.

Magnet Therapy is an alternative treatment to medicine for managing pain.  All energy is electromagnetic in nature, and nothing happens in the body without an electromagnetic exchange between cells.  Magnets help re-balance the body's natural magnetic field.   Like acupuncture, magnets accelerate the body's ability to heal itself by drawing blood and fluid to the area to which it is applied.

 

·         Fun Fact #1:  Static magnet therapy is used extensively by horses, golfers and athletes after a performance to accelerate and shorten recovery time.

·         Fun Fact #2:  Cleopatra loved magnetic therapy, and wore a lodestone (naturally magnetized stone) on her third eye to help her sleep and to keep the wrinkles away.

Michelle Tom is a small business based in New York City, and we depend on our trusted partnerships such as Small Business Bank to support us as we grow and expand into new markets.  We appreciate that they understand the challenges that small businesses face, and accommodate us with accessible requirements and excellent service.

Small Business Bank Microbusiness Featured Customer:

Amy's Handmade Jewelry

 

I started making jewelry in 2009 after I got a piece of "junk mail" from a jewelry kit-of-the-month club. I was about to throw it away when I suddenly just knew that is what I was supposed to do!

 

I had been searching for a way to make a living from home and was doing online surveys and going to focus groups and taste tests. I had also tried my hand at multiple level marketing companies like Herbalife, with little success.

 

I wanted to sell something that I had created instead of convincing myself and others how wonderful someone else's product was.

 

I started as Amy's Handmade Notions with a site on Etsy and a free YOLA website.  A while later, I changed the name to Amy's Handmade Gifts and branched out in various directions. , including Merchant Circle, Etsy and Tophatter.

 

In 2011 I purchased a StoresOnline e-commerce website.

 

I also participate in local craft shows and am a regular vendor at a local Farmer's Market.

 

In 2015 I graduated from the New York Institute of Art & Design as a Certified Designer/Maker of Beadwork and Jewelry.

 

I am currently working on growing my company as a provider of quality unique home décor as well as jewelry and gifts.

 

My biggest challenge is to expand my presence through advertising and promotion with a very limited budget.

 

Small Business Bank helped me by making it possible to open a small business account along with a card swipe device--which is a must-have at events!

 

My dream is to someday open a brick-and-mortar gift shop.

 

I love to read and spend time with my wonderful husband of 13 years, Chris and our adorable cats, Lilly and Faith.

 

In the evenings I share a Christian music concept called "Joyful Noise" on social media.

We at www.smallbusinessbank.com are proud to be associated with Amy's Handmade Jewelry--one of the many micro business pro's we try to help every day realize their dreams of freedom and success. Visit her website: www.amyshandmadejewelry.com.
