Today we’d like to introduce you to Jenn & Tony Laiacona
Hi Jenn & Tony, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
Tony attended Clemson University to study graphic design and began a career in web development. From this experience, he quickly learned the need for assets to build a website and most clients lacked that collateral. Tony began teaching himself to take professional photos and provide logo design services to more fully serve his website clientele. From here, there was a natural expansion of the photo side of the business.
Jenn attended Florida State University, graduated with a Business degree in Hospitality, and began a career in restaurant management. This experience laid the groundwork in customer service, effective communication, and operational skills.
Jenn & Tony moved to the Orlando area from Fort Lauderdale in 2020. This was the year that Jenn joined Cona Studios full time to run and grow the business allowing Tony to focus on delivering our creative services.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Is the road to success ever smooth?? Being in business for 14 years now, we of course have had ups and downs. Covid was the most difficult of the struggles we’ve faced but also the catalyst for our growth in the Orlando market. It forced us to reset, rebrand, and restructure our business in a way that has led to where we are today.
