Our Story
For 2 years, The Orange Notebook held a dream. It stayed safe within the pages of a notebook until we were ready to make a change.
The Orange Notebook is a business built by 3 Romanian friends who met at university in the UK. As every good friendship story starts, we could not stand each other on the first day.
We each studied Marketing in a different capacity and went on to build our corporate careers.
Life wasn’t perfect but we were getting by.
One day while out for dinner, we got talking excitedly about what it would look like to have our own business. And so Corina pulled out an orange notebook and started making notes which turned into business plan.
As our risotto arrived, the orange notebook went back into the bag. It was to stay there for the next 2 years.
Climbing the corporate ladder was becoming a drudgery. Collectively, we faced discrimination, misogyny and office games that led to absolutely no growth.
Stress and anxiety started to affect our mental health. It was a far cry from the learning and growth we aspired to.
And so we did what no one ever thought we would do. We quit our jobs to start a business. Just as the pandemic was settling in.
We left the security of a job for the unknown with only 3 months of wages in the bank.
It was a make or break moment. All we had was an orange notebook. And a dream that we can do better!
From there on we focused all our energy into finding clients. And from month 3 we started paying salaries and investing back in the business.
