We had the good fortune of connecting with Greta Gasparian and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Greta, is there something you can share with us that those outside of the industry might not be aware of?
When it comes to the stationery and organization industry it seems like it might be an easier route since you are dealing solely with paper products (most of the time) when in fact no matter what industry you are in there will always be a long process of production. Even for something as simple as a lined journal, not much to do right? Well, it takes anywhere from 6-9 months to produce. Why? Because if you are looking to be different and provide the best quality product at the best price then every inch of that journal needs to be thought out. From the binding to the paper quality, to the cover, and even the printing process. When we were designing our journals (it’s a gratitude journal + journal in one) I wanted something timeless and durable so it could be a keepsake to customers, something they could always have and refer back to.

What should our readers know about your business?
Plan Chicly was a mission to show myself that I could actually launch a successful business and be an amazing mother and wife all at the same time. I wanted a creative outlet where I could create amazing and unique products and make everyone’s lives easier, including mine. It was NOT easy, no business is ever easy, but it’s definitely possible. The only thing you need is dedication and drive because you will always have hurdles and failures, but if you’re dedicated you’ll never want to give up!
