We were lucky to catch up with Solfulkay recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Solfulkay, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?
Purpose can be subjective because the meaning may differ based on who you ask and where they are currently on their journey of life. Ultimately, I believe purpose isn’t something that you necessarily ‘find’ but instead it is revealed. We all have purpose and this purpose starts off as a seed; maybe not visible, but certainly present. As we grow and learn this seed also grows; it’s something we can agree that is already within us, but it’s revealed at different times for everyone. The best way to reveal your purpose is simply by always trying. Just keep swimming.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
I am Solfulkay, entrepreneur and creative director. I have a passion for growth and expansion and am currently the founder of SOLFUL MARKETING , THE CASUAL FAN, & 1/2 host of A.O. TALK PODCAST. Each of my businesses/brands are designed to help creatives worldwide display and further highlight their crafts. The best part about each of my positions is seeing others speak highly on what they enjoy to do in their career and being able to assist them on their journey. My marketing business allows me the opportunity to work with various types of brands from doctor offices to musicians, and I love having that range of diversity. My podcast journey is new but it has been fun speaking on various topics and interviewing guests. We are still attempting to discover our lane, but the support we have received thus far has been lovely and makes us grateful.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Three qualities or areas of knowledge that have been most impactful on my journey are: 1. Be Personable but don’t take things personally
2. Quantity of No’s will yield the Quality of the YES you’re looking for
3. If you can sell 1 thing, you can sell 100 things
These qualities produce a winner’s mindset and will allow for personal and creative development overtime. Once you realize that this is all a marathon and not a race, it truly makes the journey more enjoyable. Just keep swimming and know that all that you desire is already done.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
It’s no secret that people are the most important part of any business endeavor. Having the vision and idea is only half the battle, but for growth we need people, customers, clients! Each of my businesses or service based, which simply means that I have a product or service to offer to consumers. I am always looking to collaborate and network with other creatives and see how we can grow in each other’s spaces. If anyone is looking to connect or be featured on any of my platforms, the quickest way to get in contact with me would be via my Instagram @Solfulkay. My email and other pages are linked in my bio so feel free to shoot me your idea to see if we can produce some magic!
