S5E28 | Terri Harper-Brown - The Honey Lady

My name is Terri Harper.  I am a proud Trenton native and graduate of Notre Dame High School.  I am a teacher, mother and a woman of faith. My business was born out of my need for great honey during the pandemic, but it quickly turned into something more. The farmer’s market that I would visit to buy my honey was closed.  So I found the bee farm and began to purchase the honey directly from the bee farm.  I said “if I’m in search of raw honey I’m sure other people are too”.  On my second trip to the farm, I bought $100.00 worth of honey to subsequently invest into my emerging business.   I came home and made a Facebook video describing my new business.  At the time I referred to it as “this new thing I’m doing”.  Within one day, I had so many friends willing to support my new venture.  

By 2021, I had begun to become a brand and “Terri the Honey Lady” was born. I had gotten a logo design and labels with my name. At this point I said to myself “ this is something BIG”.   My customer base grew and people started to want to see more of my videos advertising my product.  I call this phase our “baby phase” where just like with your children you look back on photos with nostalgia.  I never considered myself an entrepreneur.  I had entertained the usual side businesses like Mary Kay representative and Scentsy; a candle melts company but nothing really stuck with me.  This was so different.  I wanted to learn more about honey and it’s benefits and I enjoyed it!  My beloved father was an entrepreneur. He had a well-known bar called “Charlie’s tavern” in Trenton.  When I was younger, people would stop us and greet him with such respect and love.  They had good times in his bar.   I inherited my entrepreneurial spirit from him and learned the power of relationships in business.
