Our Story
It’s hard to believe we’re going on our 5th year of business. When I recovered my kitchen chairs (you can see the fabric in the picture below of the first Bagolita) in 2005, I had no idea that 5 years later, I would be surrounded by so many talented, driven, inspiring, and intelligent women. Every day, I am in contact with our Consultants in the field – either our top Directors or a Sales Consultant interested in starting to grow a team – and I’m constantly amazed. Their ideas, dedication, and work ethic make me so very proud to have a connection to them.
Connections are really what helped make Bagolitas what we are today. Strong connections in my community helped to make Bagolitas handbags so popular in our area during the first years of business. Connections to good friends allowed me to build a strong foundation of the company. Connections to friends and family across the country helped get our sales organization off the ground in early 2006.
Connections to non-profit organizations and important causes helped us start our charitable giving programs that have resulted in donations approaching $100,000 to date.
Connections are the reasons why we are where we are. But Bagolitas really is about so much more. It is our mission to help women change their lives in whatever way they want – increased self-confidence, creating a social outlet, financial help for their household, helping them get back their sense of self, and more. These rewards are often more important than other types. We know that our Consultants aren’t going to make millions of dollars each year. We don’t want to be that kind of company.
We want to give our Hostesses high quality products of their choosing.
We want our bags to be more unique than those you find at the mall. We like that we’re unique – we get noticed and that simply feels great!
We want to be a company with Consultants that we know by first name, know their children, understand what drives them to success, and to recognize their voice when they call our Studio.
There are so many reasons why we’re where we are today but it’s the connections to people and the relationships we build that will keep us here for years to come.
Whether you’ve been a Bagolitas customer for 5 years or this is your first visit to our site, I am proud to unveil our all-new Runway Collection. These bags offer you more detail, more features, more style, and more, all at great prices. Basically, it’s affordable sophistication.
I thank you for your support over the last 5 years and look forward to serving you in years to come.
