Home Business Magazine had the opportunity to chat with GOOD ART HLYWD founder Josh Warner, who was happy to give an inside look at the brand. He also shares his must-know tips for entrepreneurs!
HBM: Tell us about the GOOD ART HLYWD brand. What sets it apart from other jewelry brands on the market?
Josh: “It’s something you’d need to discover on your own. We’re not specifically a jewelry brand–we may be more of a ‘key chain’ brand. When you become frustrated with dropping a coin in the slot of every mass-produced fashion-forward, hyped up hunk of garbage that slick salesmanship is looking to trade for your hard-earned dollars, that’s when you’re ready to spend considerably more money on something of value. Something that moves you… and those you bequeath our pieces to will also thank you. We’re making art, as our trinkets are actually treasures.”
HBM: How did the idea for GOOD ART HLYWD come about? What is the inspiration behind the brand?
Josh: “Google. It’s an old story… again of frustration with what was on the market.”
HBM: What has been your biggest achievement thus far?
Josh: “Reminiscing is for intoxicated evenings around a fire with family and friends. But I am very excited about what’s next… I’m always excited about what’s next, and not from the achievement point of view. More from the pure exhilaration of creating something bitchin’.”
HBM: What has been your biggest challenge you’ve overcome?
Josh: “Suffering fools. I’m still struggling with that one.”
HBM: What is your biggest tip for other aspiring entrepreneurs in the jewelry and accessories industry?
Josh: “I have four main tips; Get to work. Stop whining. You’re not entitled to everything you think you are. Seek your own counsel.”
