{Personal} EY's Sister...QUA FOOT SPA (Part One)

Dearest Readers: 

How fast the year is more than half way over! Hope The Year of the Dragon has been kind to everyone. I'm thrilled to announce my 2nd Business, QUA FOOT SPA at SOMA GRAND.

Most people ask me Why this business? and how did you get the name? Personally, I love Tea and I love massages, so why not? :) We started this project back in October 2011, where my good friend, Tim Tran of The Ivy Group Commercial Real Estate help me secure this location. Then, we hired Lisa Iwamoto and Craig Scott of IWAMAMOTOSCOTT Architecture  to help design my dream come true. Construction began in January and we officially launched our Soft Grand Opening on June 28, 2012.

I can honestly tell you it's not been easy. There were so many things about owning a "Retail Business" that I had absolutely no clue. Budgets for construction, hiring staff, picking out the color of the wall, the bathroom walls (we changed it 3x's!), perforated graphic walls, buying a cash register, computer, sound, etc..the list goes on.

In May, I attended the World Tea Expo in Las Vegas, where I was introduced to exactly that...the WORLD of Tea. I was fortunate to bring home new knowledge and new Tea's to introduce to my clients at QUA.

For the entire month of June - July, we are having a "Pre-Grand Opening" Special. It's $39 for the first hour of massage. Come and check us out, and you won't be disappointed.  For now, I'm really enjoying meeting my new friends/neighbors at SOMA GRAND.

I can't wait to connect with the Neighborhood of Mid-Market and share more photos with you at the next post.

On another personal level, The entire project of QUA is dedicated someone very special to me.. 
little BB. I miss you and love you, always in my heart.
