What advice do you have for friends who are considering building a business together? Are there any challenges or happy surprises that
you didn't anticipate?
Ferebee: "First, I think it’s important to really know the person you are going into
business with, almost as well as you know yourself. Eleanor and I knew each
other for eight years before coming up with our business plan. It’s important to have compatible personalities and full trust and
respect for each other. It also helps, in regards to our type of business, that we
happen to have the exact same style!
Eleanor: "One thing that has made our professional relationship so easy is that our life
and lifestyle is very similar. This is by no means a requirement for a business
relationship, but it has made negotiating our time a lot easier, since we both have
similar schedules and demands. We also have a strong work ethic and have been
able to divide and conquer really well. It's important, especially at the start when
there is so much ground to cover, to know your strengths and weaknesses, and
respect each others process. So far it's actually been really easy and just made us
even better friends."
On Eleanor: Cacharel blouse, Willow blouse, Ay Not Dead x Opening Ceremony skirt, Balenciaga shoes.
On Ferebee: Isabel Marant top, Alexander Wang skirt, Celine shoes, Chanel watch.
