Take a full glance into the world of Hilda .C. Chukwuma, the C.E.O and brand manager of Le Passionate Flame on this interesting and insightful chat interview.
E PLUS The Storyteller: Great to have you on Ejiro Story blog and the inspirational blog.
Hilda .C. Chukwuma: Thank you! It's a great pleasure!
E PLUS The Storyteller: Would it be right to say that you are one woman who is into the business of making women look and feel good?
I sell a whole lot of women's items ranging from cosmetics both organic and inorganic, bags and shoes, wrists watches, auto gele e.t.c
Hilda .C. Chukwuma: I have sold all my life, I have passion for selling and impacting people's life through what I do!
I started selling as a kid in my mother's shop(my mother is an industrious woman and I learnt a lot from her) after secondary school, I joined my sister to Ochanga and main market to buy shoes, slippers and beads. I started with less than three thousand naira then, back in Owerri.
During Nysc I would buy and travel back to the east. When I started working I still continued though with no capital I will buy and sell, then spend the money again. I will wait until I get funds and still buy and spend again.
I just had to sell something at anytime. I also registered on jumia just because I love to sell.
E PLUS The Storyteller: As the brand manager of Le passionate Flame, how can you describe the feedback from customers thus far.
Hilda .C. Chukwuma: It's been fantastic thus far! Though a few not fantastic feedback as you cannot please everybody. But it's been a 90% fantastic feedback.
I have a good relationship with customers I meet one-on-one and those I do not meet I try to leave a lasting impression. It's been fantastic and I have built my business in trust.
E PLUS The Storyteller: Tell us more about your auto gele, looks like it's getting more trendy these days.
Hilda .C. Chukwuma:
Auto gele was inspired by my child, Zikoranachidinma. It's a new found love.
I have not really been a native person all my life. After having my baby I decided to change a lot of things! I would have worn an evening dress to her dedication. I decided to go a different route. Her birth changed a lot of things for me.
So selling it to make people look very beautiful makes me happy.
Not economising materials while doing the auto gele, gives our customers a full gele.
I partnered with a friend though and success rate for the gele has been tremendous as some have been shipped outside Nigeria (though solely done by my partner). I love the auto gele. It's beautiful and gives you the perfect look for events.
I decided to make people look great too.
E PLUS The Storyteller: What motivates you?
Hilda .C. Chukwuma: What keeps me motivated are few things!
I want to make a difference,
I don't want to die poor!
I have responsibilities, coming from a family of seven where my mom and dad (God bless his soul ) have suffered a lot to make ends meet. I don't want to have my children go through what I have gone through!
Finally, doing a white collar job, I can be sent packing anytime and there is no job security in Nigeria.
