to set my goals at a reasonable level so that I can personally feel successful; after all, there are only 24 hours in the day. RW: Do you have any new projects coming up? Katie: The new year should bring some big changes for my business. I am planning to re-brand my boutique to encompass my 2015 passion project, spreading awareness and fundraising for cleft awareness. Also, I will be announcing a VIP group this year. I also plan to use more avenues of social media to reach a wider audience. I am reaching not just for the stars but for the moon! RW: What do you do for fun and relaxation? Katie: I love to read, watch all kinds of terrible reality tv, and when my body and the weather cooperate, I actually enjoy jogging! When I have the time, I also love cooking and house projects. I probably watch more HGTV and Food Network than I should admit. RW: I’m a reality TV junkie, too. It’s addicting. What is #1 business goal you plan to accomplish over the next year? Katie: I would like to reach a huge milestone of $30k in lifetime sales. And I would like to donate $1,000 or more to a cleft palate organization. RW: Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers? Katie: I am still growing my business and every day am looking for new customers, ambassadors of the C+I brand, hosts, business partnerships, and fundraising opportunities. I would love to have you host a pop up trunk show (essentially girls night in or out), find a special purchase for you or a gift for someone you love, or connect with me to plan a fundraiser. RW: I’m sure 2016 will provide an opportunity for me to host my own show. Let’s connect again at the beginning of the year. What’s the best way for the readers of Renton Woman Magazine to connect with you? Katie: The best way to reach me is through my online boutique. It’s open 24/7 at http://chloeandisabel.com/boutique/katiejohnson All of my contact information, including links to my Facebook and Pinterest pages are there as well. I would love to connect with you soon! Katie Johnson Chloe and Isabel Merchandiser http://chloeandisabel.com/boutique/katiejohnson be confident. be creative. be you. NOV/DEC 2015 19
