Today we’d like to introduce you to Indigo Klabanoff.
Hi Indigo, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My story starts out as a pre-teen in Boston. I found dresses at Goodwill and would resell them at my local park. Kids would be swinging on swings and sliding down slides, so I would go up to Moms and I would let them know that I was selling formal dresses.
I sold out and that is when I knew that I had a talent for sourcing. & seeing potential in business. Fast forward to 2020, St George, UT, to me, is the best-kept secret in the USA & because of that, I saw the potential to get in on the ground floor in St. George. There were no other markets other than the City run Arts Festival and the local Farmers Market.
Both of them focused on their genre, and I knew there was another need. A high-class pop-up market & small business incubator! I knew people were itching to support locals, and businesses needed an outlet to sell their goods. Since 2020 we’ve amplified over 350 local businesses and we are continuing to innovate and be the best small business incubator.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle-free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
In 2020, before our first market, we got rescheduled for the fall, because of COVID. Luckily, and of course, very cliché; it was a blessing in disguise.
I took that time to make the market even better and build even more excitement. Now we have different obstacles such as growth, looking for a brick and mortar, and expanding this brand even more!
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Saint George Market is a bi-annual pop-up market. We’re a Small Business Incubator and are proud of our ability to bring businesses to the forefront of our community. We have Artisans, Fashion, Food, Decor, and more. We define ourselves from others by being a small business incubator for businesses.
Not only do we offer the bi-annual pop-up market for small businesses to sell, we offer business consulting, an analysis of your business, and hands-on help before, during, and after the market!
Narrowing down what I’m most proud of brand-wise is difficult. Of course, providing a great environment for small business to sell is amazing, but I think I am most proud of the hands-on help we offer. This provides businesses impactful help, not fleeting help.
We’re there for them to help amplify their business to be the best they can be, giving ideas and new ways to grow!
If we knew you growing up, how would we have described you?
I was a creative dreamer & entrepreneur from the start. I remember on vacations that my cousins and I would get up earlier than our parents make breakfast and sell it to them for money. It’s funny looking back on that!
