From Chaos to Keepsakes: Why We Started and Why It Still Matters
Share
Starting a business is messy. It's long nights, a million tabs open, self-doubt, coffee-fueled ideas, and wondering if any of it will work. Beneath all the chaos, there's usually one thing that keeps us going: our why.
For many small businesses, especially those built around preserving memories, that "why" is rooted in family, legacy, and the desire to create something meaningful. With Father's Day coming up, it's the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and reconnect.
Why Keepsakes Matter
People aren't just searching for gifts anymore. They're searching for meaning - and that's exactly where keepsakes shine. People want to hold onto what matters most. The rise in searches shows one clear trend: people want to hold onto what matters most.
From Burnout to Breakthrough
If you’ve ever felt like giving up, especially as a small business owner, you’re not alone. Every message from a satisfied customer, every smile from a cherished photo, and every thoughtful gift that helps someone feel connected again — those are the true wins.
Just as a photo candle or a photo keyring preserves a memory, your business holds a purpose, even when it feels challenging to keep going.
