Createdbyfortune.com was established in 2009 by a creative designer named Melissa Fortune. I had the honor of meeting Melissa through a mutual friend a couple of years ago and it was always apparent how passionate she is about her work and fashion. Her vision was to bring highly coveted and unique fashion pieces to the Fashionista’s of the world who are looking for creative staple pieces to add to their wardrobe. Melissa states that the Fortune signature style can be described as a rebel with a feminine twist, so whether your style is dirty, grungy or pretty there is always something uniquely special for you here.
For the few years that I have known Melissa she has always had a unique style of Fashion and a fervor towards her craft and her creations and I am ecstatic that she has a chance to share it with the world through CreatedByFortune.com.
TalkisCheep would like for you all to get to know Melissa (Pictured Below) as well……Here is what she had to say about CreatedbyFortune.com
Talk is Cheep: Why did you start CreatedbyFortune.com?
Created by Fortune:I started my own business because I was tired of working in an industry where all my time and energy was being put into someone else’s vision and pockets. I also felt so limited as a creative artist, you don’t get to be as creative when your working for someone else.
Talk is Cheep: How did you come up with the concept and name for the company?
Created by Fortune:I never wanted a traditional fashion line. I always wanted to own a lifestyle brand that catered to a specific customer looking for that special statement piece. I spent 3 days thinking of different names for my company and after many suggestions from my friends, I came up with “Created by Fortune”.
Talk is Cheep: How has the recession affected your business?
Created by Fortune: I actually launched my business during the recession, lol. The recession has made me more conscience of the money that is coming out of my business and also more creative in a sense that I want my items to be unique and affordable. I want people to be able to shop regardless of their wallet size.
Talk is Cheep: During this recession have you had to create any innovative products or services that reflect the times such as Inexpensive Clothing or offer free fashion tips?
Created by Fortune: No, my site carries both inexpensive and expensive items. Please also note that the expensive items are of high quality, I want my customers to get what they paid for.
Talk is Cheep: What differentiates you from other designers and CreatedbyFortune.com from other companies?
Created by Fortune:What makes my brand different is that fact that all my items are special and I offer custom made pieces. There is also something for everyone on my site.
Talk is Cheep: How are you promoting your business?
Created by Fortune: Right now I’m promoting on popular networking sites such as twitter and facebook. I also have running ads on google and facebook.
I also working on collaborating with bloggers and maybe doing free giveaways on their sites.
Talk is Cheep: What advice would you give other individuals who are trying to break into the fashion industry?
Created by Fortune: It can get really tough but keep on pushing and never give up. When one door closes another will open up.
Talk is Cheep: Are there any dreams that you haven’t achieved yet?
Created by Fortune: I haven’t reached my goal with my company yet because it’s so new. So I’m still working towards being successful and financially independent.
