@sunde.lounge: Wehn your down to your last £2,000 in the bank! 😂 We sold over £10,000 and 250 pieces across two pop-ups, yet over 10 weeks later I’m still waiting to be paid. As a solo founder, that money was never my “profit”—it was meant to restock our best sellers, pay suppliers, cover the costs I’d already invested and keep Sundé moving forward. Building a brand isn’t just about making sales. It’s about surviving long enough to see the money you’ve earned. I’m sharing this because it’s my reality, and I know so many small business owners are quietly carrying the same weight. Here’s to keeping going, even when it feels impossible. 🤍 #businessowner #fashionbrands #clothingbrand #SmallBusinessUK #startup
