Meet Realtor, Ketia Cayo
Tell us how you got into entrepreneurship.
It started with me a friend turning her hobby into a business that got me thinking I should be able to do that too. I could not quit my career to do freelance makeup artistry so I did both and during that same year 2016 I decided to add to my entrepreneurship endeavors by becoming a Florida licensed realtor and have been doing both since then. I never knew I had it in me.
What’s one of the greatest accomplishments you have achieved in your business and what was key to seeing this success?
The biggest accomplishment I have achieved in my Real Estate business is getting to the point in revenue to surpass my first career income to allow me to be in the position to not have to do both which just happened this summer 2022. The key to me accomplishing this is really first having the Faith that the Lord will give me the strength to do what it takes, have a great support system in my Husband, family and friends to help me to be out hustling to make connections and lastly being consistent to put in the time to pour into the business while working 9-5 on top of being a wife, mother and active in ministry. But it all started with writing the vision and making it plan while in prayer.
Where do you see yourself in the next 3-5 years?
I see myself in 3-6 years enjoying being your trusted Real Estate Specialist, making 6 figures, and being in control of our finances, time, and energy. I want the freedom to do what I love on my schedule and living life how I see fit with my husband and two boys.
What do you love most about being a CEO Chick?
I love the most encouraging our women to be a CEO Chick and growing while doing life with other Dope CEO Chicks/sistas!
Who inspires you?
I am really inspired by my two little boys because they look at me the way I desire to be so it motivates me to be the best version of myself for them.
What is your favorite book/podcast you recommend to our CEO Chicks?
Book: "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and "His and Her Money" podcast I highly recommend.
What advice would you give other aspiring entrepreneurs?
I would share that being an entrepreneur is not for the weak, get your weight up by really seeking what the Lord has gifted you to do and create a game plan that is adjustable to life curves. Believe in yourself like your life depended on it because when it looks impossible you are able to go back to the vision of yourself that God showed you to push and persevere.
How has the CEO Chick network impacted your business?
I’m new to the CEO chick network but it has inspired me especially to see the number of believers doing it right and the wisdom/tips I’ve gained so far I have been able to implement quickly to help.
