May being Mother’s Day Month, we are pleased to feature several vignettes of our Mother-Daughter franchisees. Meet Nola Shivers and her daughter Jennifer Green of Missouri.

Daughter is Heart of the Business

Once daughter Jennifer became fully involved in Nola Shivers’ franchise, she soon became the face, personality and heart of the business. “Everyone loves Jennifer, from vendors, clients, to the truck drivers delivering furniture," says Nola. “She has the most amazing personality, welcoming everyone in and making them feel comfortable, and appreciated. She really is the best PR person you could ever want.”

“The second I walked into their office for the first time, she welcomed me with open arms and immediately built a good relationship with me,” said Employee Benefits Counselor Clayton Mitchell. “I was making a cold call, just stopping in to introduce myself and see if I could be of service. The business became a client, and Jennifer became such a friend that if I was having a bad day and was in the area, I’d drive over to see her. I knew she would cheer me up.”

A home economics graduate, Nola recalled that it was time for her to pursue her life-long dream of decorating, when a Bible Study friend asked if she could help in her Decorating Den franchise. Nola was elated and became a "decorator". That was in August of 1995. Tragically, Nola’s friend died of cancer two years later and Nola ended up acquiring the business.

“Jennifer had long wanted to work with me,” Nola said. “Periodically she helped out part-time. When she attended her first Decorating Den International Conference, she was blown away. She fell in love with Decorating Den and all of the people she met. That was the year (2012) we were named Franchise Owner of the Year. It was a special moment to have her there for that. She has a business administration and marketing degree, and around that time, we were finally able to make her full-time. She has been a perfect fit and today, she is one of our firm’s Managing Partners along with our designer Heather Malachowski."
