Made in the Shade St. Johns
Meet Holly
Made in the Shade of St. Johns, Florida, was born when Holly Yourkovich, a 30-year veteran of the teaching world, decided it was time to trade in her chalk for a measuring tape and her textbooks for fabric swatches. After all, there’s only so much glitter a person can handle in one lifetime.
Holly’s final teaching gig, wrangling 5- to 12-year-olds in art class, reignited her creative spark and stirred a desire to dive into the world of home interiors. Realizing that launching a business from scratch was a bit like trying to keep a room full of kindergartners focused, she opted for a franchise. Enter Made in the Shade, a ready-made recipe for success that let her skip the start-up stress and jump straight into what she loves most: connecting with people and home interiors and design.
At Made in the Shade, Holly’s mission is as clear as a clean window: to help clients find exactly what they need for their windows, be it for home or business. She’s all about guiding her clients to the best choices, making sure they see what’s important when making decisions.
"We want every customer to be completely satisfied with their results. Happy clients make us happy. We’re not happy unless you are!" – Holly
So, whether you need blinds, shades, or just some friendly advice on window dressing, Holly’s got you covered—literally!
After looking into starting her own business, Holly found that she would be tied to tasks required to start up a business and decided it best to go with a franchise, rather than starting from scratch. Made in the Shade provided everything she was looking for. Have a proven franchise model allowed her more free time to do the part of the job that is most important to her, working with people and building relationships with others.
Holly runs her business with one thing in mind, developing relationships by helping her clients find what they want and need for their windows, whether it be in a home or business setting. Helping clients to see what is important to them when making decisions and guiding them to the options that will make the most sense to them, is the Goal of Made in the Shade of St Johns Florida. “We want every customer to have complete satisfaction with their results. Happy clients are what make us happy. We are not happy unless you are!” – Holly
