Becoming a Nerd

i founded becoming a nerd during the end of the first lockdown, as my love and passion for the fandoms that i'm a part of had been reignited. i invested in an embroidery machine and with the help of youtube tutorials and other small business owners, i taught myself everything i needed to know to create embroidered apparel. in the eight months since launching our website at the end of october 2020, we have taken £30,450 revenue and over 900 orders. we have shipped to every uk post code as well as netherlands, belgium, australia, switzerland, germany, france, canada, sweden, guernsey, ireland, czech republic, spain, italy, austria and norway as well as 18 us states. currently, becoming a nerd is a one woman show where everything from the drawing of the initial designs, creation of the product, stock and shipping logistics, packaging and customer service is done by me from my kitchen. by the end of 2021 i will have a dedicated space for my business and will have one employee to help w
