I had the chance to speak to Montreal based handbag designer Annick Levesque. She is a graduate of Cégèp Marie-Victorin and creates beautiful hand-made bags with integrated lighting. A highly original concept, protected by international patents all over the world! In addition, in the podcast she speaks to us about the importance of buying local, good quality products and shares some tips on starting your own business.
One of the things that most impressed me about Annick is the fact that all her bags are handmade by her here in Montreal.
She is planning to open her first retail outlet this summer on Avenue Laurier O. in Montreal.
Wherever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision. – Peter Drucker,
Some of her secrets? Stay focused even during the hard times, and stick with your passion. Also don’t be afraid to ask for help, financial or otherwise. Annick is generously offering a bag to my readers. Do check out my Facebook author and blog Facebook page for details!
Thank you Annick for your courageous spirit, your passion and your immense generosity! We look forward to seeing more of your work and visiting your store on Avenue Laurier in Montreal.
The perfect accessory for the upcoming summer season ahead!
A woman’s mind is as complex as the contents of her handbag; even when you get to the bottom of it, there is always something at the bottom to surprise you!
