Who is Marcia Miller?
Born entrepreneur Marcia Miller launched and built her first successful company — Super-calli-grahics, Inc.— out of an apartment while pregnant with her first child.
The national personalized stationery, catalog and invitation business, which she began as a wholesaler to mom-and-pop stationery stores, evolved into an international gift distribution company that designed more than 25 new products a year and sold trend merchandise to gift and party goods stores around the world.
A University of California Berkeley graduate with a degree in Art, Miller quickly displayed a uniquely creative, trendy, quirky style that brought her respect and recognition within the tough, take-no-prisoners atmosphere of the gift industry.
Known for an intuitive—and strong business--sense for what makes fun, playful design, she won professional and popular acclaim for bringing her color consciousness into every product she created for the marketplace.
As a matter of fact, Miller became an internationally known product color expert and originator of a color palate known in showrooms around the world as “Marcia’s Colors.”
From Super-calli-graphics, Miller moved on to a totally new life experience: owning and operating a 250-square foot retail candy store called I Love Candy in one of Los Angeles’s trendiest Westside neighborhoods, hobnobbing with some of Hollywood’s finest candy connoisseurs, including Meg Ryan, Steven Spielberg, Sally
Field, Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin.
After 20 years of product design, manufacturing, distribution and sales experience, Miller was finally learning hard-core retail from the ground up – on-the-job, so to speak. With thousands of different kinds of candy from all over the world, ranging from 1 cent treats to the finest gourmet chocolate, Miller, in her words, “learned what people buy, how they buy it, and what keeps them coming back for more.” She promptly built the enterprise into what many Los Angelenos called “the first destination kids' candy store in Southern California.” Indeed, LA Magazine dubbed I Love Candy the “#1 Kids Candy Store in LA.”
Miller noticed that the store catered to a captured audience of primarily female shoppers. In her quest to sell anything she could to maximize shelf space and revenue potential, she started placing colorful, well-priced jewelry displays by the cash register. Customers who originally came in for candy walked out with jewelry—soon her customers were purchasing more bracelets than candy and kept coming back for more.
Twenty-thousand dollars and a credit card later, the mother of two started I Love Bracelets (ILB) -- and was back to doing what she loved most in the world – having fun designing and manufacturing her own affordable, fashion-forward, top-of-the-trend, branded products.
And, naturally, Miller has brought her most intangible asset to the new enterprise: the gift and talent for understanding the metaphysics of color. Since its 2002 inception, ILB has sold more than 2 million bracelets, earrings, and necklaces, exclusively to more than 7,000 retailers, gift stores and fashion boutiques.
However, every intuitive bone in her body—as well as all her entrepreneurial experience in distribution, wholesale and retail -- indicated there was a major human element missing in the business model.
“From the beginning, friends, strangers and passersby have wanted to sell my jewelry but did not have a retail storefront – so they would have a party to share it one-to-one with their circle of friends or folks in their neighborhood.”
So Miller has spent four years developing and fine-tuning the home-based business model known as The Marcia Miller Collection (MMC), a direct-to-consumer company in the finest tradition of Mary Kay Cosmetics, Discovery Toys and Tupperware.
“Providing women with an opportunity to own their own businesses with very little startup investment, regardless of experience, education, race, age or economic status, is one that I have been fortunate enough to receive in my lifetime,” muses founder Miller. “It all comes full circle in life—and the birth of MMC promises to begin closing that circle for me.”
“And nothing, I mean, absolutely nothing, gives me more joy in life than helping to put a smile on a person’s face and happiness in their heart! I love being the fairy godmother of jewelry who adds that sparkle to women’s lives!
