2022: Our Year in Review
This year’s motto was “we’re five years older, five years bolder”. This was set in December 2021 in preparation for 2022, and we can confidently say: boldness was needed! Phew, the last 12 months have been a whirlwind, and potentially our most difficult yet.
2019: Our Year in Review
At the beginning of 2019, we shared a graphic on social media stating "dreams are the seeds of change". At this time, we were still working at home – just the two of us! Twelve months later and we are now settled in our new studio with a larger team of three. This was something we dreamt of when first starting. We are so grateful we've been able to grow to this point (with plenty of growth left in us).
How did we get to this point, now? Let us share a recap of the last twelve months, starting in January 2019...
We Made It: Our Year In Review
2017 is the year we took a huge leap of faith in order to make our dreams a reality.
Our entire childhood is a montage of getting stuck in, being creative, and making up elaborate stories together. Then in 2011, whilst studying at Sixth Form, we penned the name Buttercrumble. We shared our creations as Buttercrumble for fun and feedback before studying at the University of Leeds. This is where we had our Eureka moment! We could do what we love and support others whilst creating a living for ourselves.
We were brought up in a small seaside town where we had no business network and no investment so we had to start at the very beginning. It was the support of our university, family and previous employers that allowed us to launch Buttercrumble. They made it happen but it's the wonderful people we met this year who helped us sustain and grow.
Here's how we made it - one year in business - our year in review.
This new beginning motivates us to reinvent ourselves, exercise our strengths, and remedy our foibles. I find this especially true of our young generation climbing social ladders and (literally) growing out of their former selves!
