Today we’d like to introduce you to Deon Crockett
Deon, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
From using natural products to making my own natural products, I’ve always done whatever remedy to keep my face clear. I’ve dealt with dry skin and dry scalp my entire life. Enough was enough! I needed to know what could I do to keep both (skin and scalp) hydrated and moist. From using lotion, hair grease and other products, nothing was working. So I did some research, came up with a formula and made my own product. Which was a moisturizer that I was using on my face + hair. I gave samples of my product to family members of mine. They were actually my testers that became my first customers. That’s when I knew I had a product on my hand. For the first two months, all my customers were family members.
So, I founded Fly Crockett, LLC a male- founded brand started by Deon Crockett. Which consist of a natural skincare brand *FlyCrockettskincare* a brand that focus on the meaning of natural by bringing you confidence with ten or less ingredients. I started May 2019 with one product and I know I have seven products with several unreleased products. I launched my website Nov 20, 2020 {FlyCrockett.com} and everything being going great. Taking care of your skin is more important than covering it up. Skincare is not just for women. MEN need skincare too. That’s why I’m here to change the way people think of skincare by providing healthy and cruelty-free skincare products that’s great for our planets and us.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
It’s never a smooth road while trying to pursue your goals. It’s always something that tries to distract + stop you from reaching where you want to go in life. But you can’t let nothing stop you. Keep striving! It was times I wanted to give up because things were moving slow due to non-sales and lack of support. It’s people in the world that you think will support you because of the relationship you guys have, will not support you. But I didn’t let that stop me, I started talking more about the product, using social media and investing in myself. I had weekly talks with my mentor about what I want to pursue and what goals I want to reach. I started to focus on different age groups and their needs. Once the COVID-19 pandemic hit, it completely slowed me down but also sped me up. During the time, it gave me time to really think ahead about what’s next. And from there, I didn’t let nothing get in the way of my business.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Someone who gathers and uses research and evidence, making a hypothesis and testing it —Exactly what I label myself, a scientist. Skincare is not just for women. MEN need skincare too. This is a reason FlyCrockettskincare has been created to show women and more men in the world on how to take care of their face using a natural skincare and not be ashamed. Coming from a project development and into skincare, sets me apart from others. Being into skincare is the last thing someone from my development would think of. That’s why I’m here to change that and give people back that confidence that’s been missing. I’m proud to say that my business changed some people’s lives, inspire others to start their skincare line and motivated many to work towards their goals in life without giving up. FlyCrockettskincare is here to give you confidence with ten or less ingredients. No matter where you are in your skincare journey, remember your skin is good with or without acne.
Who else deserves credit in your story?
First I would like to give a honor to God. Without God I wouldn’t be where I’m at today with my business. Secondly, I like to thank each and every one of my customers for trusting me with their skin. For the love and support that they give me. Without them, FlyCrockett would not be where it’s at today. Lastly, I want to give credit to my mentor Francine. She’s been there since I first started. She plays a big role in my business. Before I confirm things, I go over it with her because i know she has many great ideas and solutions to any problem I’m having. I like to hear other people perspective and she always been there for me before the business.
