Today we’d like to introduce you to Anna Ham.
Hi Anna, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I’m Anna Ham. I am the mom of one small dude – I think he’s the cutest dude around- and wife to Kyle. When I found out he was a boy, I was so excited but I quickly learned finding cute boy clothes that didn’t have cheesy dinosaurs and monsters all over them was nearly impossible. Any children’s boutique I shopped at had an overwhelming selection of girl clothes from a wide range of prices, while the boy’s selection was slim and tend to only have the higher-end brands.
Alas, Little Dudes Shop was born. A shop curated just for boys with many styles, sizes, and prices that fit your budget! I hope every boy’s mama, grandma, and aunt finds the Little Dudes Shop fun and easy to shop for your favorite dudes.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
My background is in marketing- specifically social media and influencer marketing. I’ve worked on the e-comm side too for 5 years so I had a good understanding of my website platform and the backend work. That part has been smooth sailing. Since I am new to owning my own business there are a lot of learning curves. I originally was going to start the shop in Jan of 2023, but my friend said “why not just go ahead and open?” So I did.
While I am glad I started it in November, I also started a new job at the same time- not the best idea I’ve had. It’s been challenging to manage work and my business. My biggest challenge however has been finding cute, quality boy clothes- even as a buyer it’s hard! So I am diligently working on finding great wholesalers and brands to work with.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Little Dudes Shop?
Boy mamas, grandmas, and aunts’ favorite new place. Little Dudes Shop is an online shop made just for boys ages newborn to 12 years old. While we’re still new and purchasing more inventory, we envision having everything you need for your little dude.
From layette to stylish casual everyday outfits and more, we hope to provide a shop that offers what you need in one place! I should mention we offer free local pick-up to our Memphis friends!
