Having a Business in the Cigar Culture
"It can be rough". That's normally the immediate answer I give when people ask me how it is having a Company related to the Cigar Business. "When it's great, it's Heaven, when it's not, it's a living Hell...but I wouldn't ask for anything else." I've fully accepted my products are a want and not a need and while they are more on the pricier side ($90-$280), I wouldn't have them any other way. Generally, the success of my Accessories is primarily seasonal; Summertime, when i'm able to be involved in multiple events and Pop Up's, my sales generally go through the roof. Fall, between September and November, slows down because Cigar Smokers have back to school and back to work bills. Like any business, there are ups and downs but if you love what you do.......
