Early sales were by chance or through personal connection, Yarlagadda says. For example, she sold a ring to an Uber driver who overheard her phone call describing what she was trying to do with Shiffon.
The "most exciting" was when she would look at an online order and actually not know the buyer, she says. And in the beginning, that was often thanks to celebrities.In 2017, the friends with whom Yarlagadda had started Shiffon all went back to school. So she soon recruited family friend , as Shiffon was making big growth moves, and fast. The business surged forward in bursts, starting almost before Yarlagadda had all the organizational aspects of her start-up ready., on LinkedIn, trying to get Watson to wear the pinkie ring in public.
And that was just the beginning. A-listers from Serena Williams to Michelle Obama wore the ring. Obama even narrated a video encouraging women to vote that was done in a collaboration with Shiffon's October release of a limited edition pair of hoop earrings. The campaign was posted to social media with the hashtag #HoopsToVote .
