Perfect Success Events
Darice E. Goodwin is a Special Events Planner that credits her success to caring about clients.
Place
a child in a toy store with unlimited options and some will gravitate
to the dolls, others the action figures, some the toy cars, but Darice
E. Goodwin? She gravitated to the tea party set as she places her Barbie
up at the head of the table with Ken serving hors d’oeuvres to Skipper,
Strawberry Shortcake, Raggedy Ann and Andy. Goodwin is a born event planner that owns Perfect Success Event Management.
“I’ve
always had an entrepreneurial spirit ever since I was a young child,”
says Goodwin who admits to hosting her Care Bears and Cabbage Patch Kids
at her weekly tea parties. “When I think back to how I envisioned my
life and my career path, I realized that it always included being a
business owner.”
Eventually
Goodwin took stock of her skills and interests realizing she had been
an event planner all along. In high school at Mater Dei, she chaired
several event committees. In college at Loyola Marymount University
majoring in English and African American Studies, she was very active in
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Sigma Chapter where she held the
position of the Vice President who was responsible for the year’s
programming and charity events.
Understanding
your interests and actively pursuing them is important for Goodwin who
seeks to understand the true nature of her clients and clarify what’s
needed to make their specific event a success. “From its inception,
Perfect Success Event Management has been a company focused on customer
sensitivity and customer satisfaction,” Goodwin adds, “The key to its
success is treating each event like a relationship – being committed and
loyal, having integrity and nurturing the vision that will manifest
into something special. Oprah says it best, “Love is in the details.” I
love events and I adore the details.”
Few
things are successful without sacrifice and a humble approach. Goodwin
proudly admits to volunteering her way into her first major client.
Volunteering allowed her to garner the contacts necessary to land
Perfect Success’ first event when ‘Real Men Cook,’ a national event
representing father figures in the African American community, returned
to Los Angeles the following year in 2003.
Since
its founding in October of 2001 and securing its first major client in
2003, Perfect Success Event Management has been able to offer a high
level of class, creativity, and commitment to each special event.
Goodwin believes that “Life is a series of events and together we’ll
make them a...Perfect Success!”
