Women-Owned Business of the Month
Sarah Picou
Hi! My name is Sarah and I am the owner of Pink On Main, A Lilly Pulitzer Signature Store. We were established in 2007 and have been located in downtown Spartanburg, South Carolina since.
My love for Lilly started when I was in high school. The prints and colors filled my young, peppy girl’s heart. I shopped at Pink On Main buying what I could afford at the time, such as the shorts and accessories.
In college, I joined Phi Mu at College of Charleston where I earned my Bachelors in Marketing. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do after college but loved business and being creative.
After college, I earned experience in the marketing industry and created my own personal fashion and lifestyle blog, The Simple Blonde. I taught myself how to create my own website and social media presence while earning a little money on the side. I worked off and on at Pink On Main doing social media and built a website during Covid.
The opportunity was something I knew I was meant to do. I was born for this! Each day I wake up excited and passionate about Pink On Main and the customers that come in the store. I love this community and everything it’s given me. I’m looking forward to this journey as the owner of Pink On Main!
