Female Entrepreneur Spotlight:Fabiola Hinton from SimplyFabilous

 



Female Entrepreneur Spotlight: Fabiola Hinton 


We have a deep passion for promoting female entrepreneurs and delving into the minds of women who work exceptionally hard to achieve their goals and aspirations. Our passion lies mostly in highlighting black female business owners specifically and today we are going to be featuring Haitian-born Canadian boss Fabiola Hinton, owner of SimplyFabilous, a beauty and fashion accessory brand in Canada. 


Fabiola launched the brand in 2017 after gaining perceptive clarity whilst studying for her aesthetician qualification. During her course, she had to create a comprehensive business plan for a spa and this is when the idea for SimplyFabilous came to her. She initially launched the brand as a storefront in Ontario, Canada eventually the store migrated to an exclusively online retail business. 


The products are cruelty-free and non-toxic, making them suitable for vegans and vegetarians. 


When we asked her to tell us the sole mission of SimplyFabilous, she said: 


“To be comfortable in the skin that you’re in and by entering this destination you’ll learn to be Simply “Fabulous” in all aspects of your life.”

The goal of the brand is to make sure that all women who purchase from SimplyFabilous will be comfortable in their own skin and they will learn to be Fabulous in all areas of their lives. What a wonderful mission for a brand! 

 

We also asked Fabiola what challenges she faced as a female entrepreneur and she told us: 

“Educating and Investing in my growth. I spent a lot of money on free information. Looking back, a lot of my first year’s mistakes would not have happened. I opened a storefront with the help of a consultant and the location and surveys were far from reality. I had to close it down and focus strictly online.”

As aspiring entrepreneurs, it's always necessary to learn from and stand on the shoulders of those who have come before you. Therefore, hearing Fabiola’s struggles, you should be able to learn and grow from the experiences that she had as an entrepreneur. But also bear in mind that your journey as an entrepreneur will be different. 

 

Fabiola continues to push and expand the SimplyFabilous brand, and she has ambitious plans for the growth and progression of the business.
