“I have to find a balance<br />

between managing the<br />

business and taking care of<br />

children. I have to use creativity<br />

and business sense<br />

and find time to concentrate<br />

on each.”<br />

Chesbro has just recently<br />

moved from Central<br />

Avenue to 158 Lake Shore<br />

Drive East in Dunkirk and<br />

is planning a grand opening<br />

on May 19.<br />

Judy Hilliker, the proprietor<br />

of Hae Jude custom<br />

signs and apparel located<br />

on 344 Central Ave. in<br />

Silver Creek, has been in<br />

business since 1994. She<br />

has expanded her business<br />

over the last 18 years,<br />

starting out at home and<br />

later renting a store front.<br />

Now she owns her store.<br />

Like other businesses,<br />

she singled out the hours<br />

necessary to run a business<br />

as a challenge. She<br />

said, “You live at your<br />

business, and can’t take<br />

time off whenever you<br />

want.”<br />

Another challenge is to<br />

diversify the business<br />

enough so that it can succeed,<br />

and keep up with<br />

trends. For example, while<br />

she has a store she also<br />

makes sales on line.<br />

Hilliker offers a wide<br />

variety of products for<br />

business and advertising<br />

needsaswellasforindividuals.<br />

She can help a<br />

business create a logo and<br />

then use that logo effectively<br />

on products such as<br />

business cards. She can<br />

create custom T shirts.<br />

She does election signs as<br />

well as more permanent<br />

signs and plaques such as<br />

carbon signs with gold leaf<br />

which, she explained, are<br />

popular with both busi-<br />

In addition she can do<br />

screen printing, and has<br />

expanded into digital<br />

printing. She has a full<br />

color printer with a 64-<br />

inch format so she can create<br />

full color signs on canvas.<br />

In spite of the work, she<br />

too loves what she does.<br />

“My business is more personal.<br />

I am a people person<br />

and I like to talk to my<br />

customers and find out<br />

what they like.”<br />

Hard work, personalized<br />

service, and community<br />

commitment are the<br />

ingredients that go into<br />

our area’s successful businesses.<br />

Community support<br />

is necessary to keep<br />

them successful.<br />
