PART TWO - Tara Solberg - Graphic Designer to successful Homeware Stores

<p>Eleven years Tara along with husband Danny quit their day jobs as graphic designers to take a leap and follow their dream to start a furniture and homeware store.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After years spent traveling the world as designers, they had always wanted to bring some of the treasures they came across back home. They had big ideas of creating a magical store full of wander and curiosity.&nbsp;&nbsp;Fast forward to present day and Tara and Danny’s dream has well and truly been realised. Under the banner&nbsp;<em>Few and Far</em>&nbsp;the couple have opened five stores in NSW, and created a wholesale brand called Indigo Love.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The couple have been through so much during the past six months; all their stores were in bush fire affected areas and then were closed due to COVID but luckily Tara and Danny were able to pivot and increase their online offering.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>During the recent lockdown period Tara also decided to start work on a new course she had wanted to create. The idea behind the course was to share all the knowledge the couple had garnered on their business journey. Thementor/retail masterclass will launch towards the end of the year and will be a two-day retreat and/or an online course and is aimed at helping those who want to start their own retails business.

Also, a huge thank you to Tara who drove 3.5 hours to come on the pod - that’s a long way!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.fewandfar.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.fewandfar.com.au</a></p><p>Instagram @fewandfarhome</p> <br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>ac
