    679. "Should I Simplify My Products and Go All-In on Wholesale?" | Coaching Session

    Welcome back Product Bosses! Do you struggle to find enough time to focus on your company? Michelle Moser, the founder of Sunshine & Saltwater, is ready to take her business to the next level but feels like she just doesn’t have the time between her full-time job and the growing list of products she sells. Her business, a coastal lifestyle brand that began as a t-shirt company has expanded into a scent focused business and in addition to apparel, she now offers gifts, bags, towels, and more.

    In this coaching session, I help Michelle identify her top performing products to focus on rather than trying to expand her full product line. We also dive into wholesale strategy so she can put her energy into what is driving revenue and working well for her business.

    678. Can You REALLY Have a Million-Dollar Handmade Business?

    What if I told you that your handmade business has the potential to reach a million dollars in revenue? I know that might sound impossible, especially if you’re feeling maxed out just trying to keep up with orders. But here’s the thing—growth isn’t about working harder; it’s about working smarter. In this episode, I’m diving into what it really takes to scale a handmade business without burning out.

    I’ve seen so many entrepreneurs hit a glass ceiling because they’re stuck in the mindset that they have to do everything themselves. But the businesses that truly grow are the ones that focus on scalability, smart pricing, and strategic sales channels. I’ll walk you through the shifts you need to make, from stepping into the role of CEO to ensuring your products are priced for profit.

    If you’re ready to stop feeling overwhelmed and start thinking bigger, this episode is for you. I’ll share real-life examples of handmade businesses that have broken through that revenue ceiling and exactly how they did it. Because the truth is, anything is possible when you have the right mindset and take the right steps forward.

    677. "I’ve been in business several years, but need help gaining control on my pricing and margins." | Coaching Session

    After 10 years in business, Nicole, the owner of Masion Brocante (May-zohn Berh-cont), knows the ins and outs of her product line—but she also knows there’s always room for growth. In this coaching session, we dive into pricing strategies, improving margins, and the small but impactful shifts that can lead to big results. Together, we explore how increasing her average order value, expanding into wholesale, and refreshing her social media presence can help her build a more profitable and sustainable business.

    One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that success isn’t about overhauling everything at once—it’s about making intentional changes. Whether it’s refining pricing to improve profitability, focusing on the right products for wholesale, or engaging followers in a more meaningful way, every small shift adds up. Nicole and I also discuss the importance of stepping back and evaluating what’s working (and what’s not) to make informed decisions for future growth.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck or wondered whether you need a big change or just a small tweak, this episode is for you. Join us as we break down real, actionable strategies that can help you optimize your business, increase sales, and create a more sustainable path forward.

I know that feeling all too well, and in this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey of self-discovery, the struggles I’ve faced, and the mindset shifts that have helped me move forward. Life is full of highs and lows, but I’ve learned that embracing both—the wins and the challenges—is what makes for a truly rich and meaningful life.

    For so long, I let comparison steal my confidence. I’d look at others who seemed to have it all together and wonder if I was doing enough. But the truth is, no one has it all figured out. We’re all navigating our own journeys, and the only thing that truly matters is how we show up for ourselves. In this episode, I’m breaking down the mindset shifts that helped me: overcome self-doubt, stop waiting for the “perfect” moment, and take action despite fear.

    If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re enough, this episode is for you. I’m sharing practical tools, affirmations, and personal reflections that have helped me build confidence, take action, and trust that I’m exactly where I need to be. Your future self is waiting—let’s take that first step together.

    675. "Should I start a new business or can I save what I already have?" | Coaching Session

    If you've ever felt stuck in your business, unsure whether to pivot or push forward, this episode is for you. I chat with Kayleigh, the owner of Inspired to Enrich, to coach her through the challenges of scaling her business selling Story Coins. Like many entrepreneurs, Kayleigh is questioning whether she should refine her existing product or shift to an entirely new business idea. Together, we break down what it really takes to gain traction and build a profitable business.

    One of the biggest challenges product-based business owners face is skipping ahead before truly understanding their market. In our conversation, I walk Kayleigh through the process of refining her product, identifying her ideal customer, and gathering proof of concept. Instead of making drastic changes, sometimes the key to success lies in simplifying and doubling down on what’s already working. Market research, customer validation, and clarity on the product’s benefits are the real game changers.

    If you’re in a similar place—wondering if your product has real potential or if it’s time for a new direction—this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need. Consistent sales don’t happen by accident. They come from knowing exactly who you serve and why they need your product. Tune in now and let’s get you on the path to sustainable growth!

    674. Why Relying on Just One Sales Channel is Killing Your Business (And What to Do Instead)

    If you’re relying on just one sales channel to run your business, it’s time for a wake-up call. In this episode, I break down why putting all your eggs in one basket can put your business at serious risk—especially in 2025, where consumer shopping habits are shifting faster than ever. I share insights from industry experts and real-world examples of businesses that have successfully scaled by diversifying their sales platforms and strategies.

    Because the reality is, customers aren’t just shopping in one place. They’re on social media, browsing marketplaces, engaging with brands via email, and making purchases through multiple touchpoints. If you’re only selling on one platform, you’re missing out on major opportunities. I’ll walk you through how to develop multiple sales engines that work together, so no single platform controls your success. This isn’t about doing everything—it’s about being strategic and placing your business where your customers already are.

    If you want to create a more resilient, profitable business, this episode is a must-listen. I’ll show you how to adapt, protect your revenue, and build a brand that thrives—no matter how the market shifts. Tune in now and take control of your sales strategy!

    673. "I want to increase the profitability of my product-based business, how do I do that?" | Coaching Session

    Welcome back, Product Bosses! In this coaching session, I coach Connie, the founder of Contoura Collective, to refine her strategy for growing her product-based business. Connie creates beautiful manifestation journals, but like many business owners, she’s struggling to focus on what sells best while keeping her customers engaged. We dive into how narrowing her product offerings, creating an experience for her audience, and leveraging social media can help her scale more effectively.

    One of the biggest shifts we discuss is the power of selling transformation rather than just a product. Customers don’t just buy journals—they buy the promise of clarity, goal-setting, and personal growth. By positioning her products as tools for transformation and using content marketing to educate and inspire, Connie can build deeper connections and increase sales. Plus, we cover why repeat customers are the secret to a thriving business and how small, consistent engagement can create a loyal community.

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re selling things instead of solutions, this episode will help you rethink your approach. Whether you’re looking to simplify your marketing, boost customer retention, or find clarity in your brand strategy, you’ll walk away with actionable steps to take your business to the next level.

    672. Everyone Has a Million-Dollar Idea—Why Most People Let Theirs Die

    Welcome back, Product Bosses! Have you ever had a million-dollar idea but never acted on it? You’re not alone. In this episode, I dive into why so many brilliant ideas never make it past the “what if” stage and how fear, self-doubt, and waiting for the perfect moment keep entrepreneurs stuck. But here’s the truth—success comes from action, not overthinking. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, wondering if now is the right time, this episode will give you the push you need to get started.

    We talk about the mindset shifts that separate those who bring their ideas to life from those who let them fade away. Instead of letting fear hold you back, what if you reframed it as curiosity? What if you explored what’s possible instead of focusing on what could go wrong? I also break down why people buy—hint: it’s not just about what a product does but how it makes them feel. Understanding this will help you position your product in a way that attracts the right customers and turns your idea into a profitable business.

    If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect” moment, this is your sign to stop waiting and start doing. The world needs your ideas, and success is built one step at a time. Tune in to hear how you can take the first step today toward making your idea a reality!

    671. "I sell well in-person, but I struggle to convert online visitors into buyers- help!" | Coaching Session

    Welcome back, Product Bosses! If you've ever wondered why people visit your website but don’t click buy, you're not alone. In this episode, I coach Lindsey, a jewelry designer who has no trouble selling in-person but struggles to convert online visitors into paying customers. We dive into what makes an online brand stand out, how to create an experience that draws people in, and why an emotional connection is the key to getting customers to say yes.

    One of the biggest challenges product-based business owners face is competing in a crowded online space. Together, Lindsey and I break down how brand positioning can make all the difference—because when customers feel something about your brand, they’re far more likely to buy. We also explore wholesale as a way to create consistent revenue, and I share how strategic outreach can open up new opportunities that lead to long-term growth.

    If you're struggling to turn online traffic into actual sales, this episode is packed with actionable insights you can implement right away. Listen in to learn how to refine your brand, connect with your ideal customers, and create a business that not only attracts visitors but converts them into loyal buyers.

    670. The Power of Uncertainty: Why Now is the Time to Take the Leap

    Welcome back, Product Bosses! If you’ve ever felt stuck waiting for the “right time” to take action, this episode is for you. I’m diving into the reality of uncertainty—how it’s always present and why it doesn’t have to hold you back. Instead of seeing uncertainty as a roadblock, what if it’s actually the push you need to take control of your future? The truth is, stability is an illusion, and the longer we wait for things to feel safe, the more opportunities we miss.

    In this episode, I break down why uncertainty can actually be a powerful motivator. Many successful entrepreneurs didn’t start when everything was perfect—they took action despite the unknowns. When you shift your mindset and see change as an opportunity instead of a threat, you unlock a whole new level of potential. Whether it’s launching a new product, scaling your business, or finally taking that big leap, now is always the best time to start.

    If you’ve been holding back, waiting for a sign, consider this episode your sign. Taking control of your future doesn’t mean waiting for the right circumstances—it means creating them. Tune in as we talk about embracing uncertainty, building security through entrepreneurship, and stepping into action with confidence.

    669. "I want to grow and expand my wholesale business- help!" | Coaching Session

    Welcome back, Product Bosses! In this episode, I sit down with Elizabeth from Brighton House Decor as she navigates a major shift in her business—moving from event decor to watercolor illustrated products. Change can be exciting, but it also comes with challenges, especially when it comes to pricing, sales strategies, and growing wholesale accounts. We dive deep into what it takes to expand her wholesale business, adjust pricing for better profitability, and craft offers that actually convert.

    One of the biggest takeaways from this session? Sometimes, lowering prices can lead to more sales. It’s all about striking the right balance between profit margins and demand. We also talk about why outreach to retailers is a non-negotiable when scaling wholesale and how tracking repeat customers can unlock new revenue opportunities. When done right, sales offers aren’t just about clearing inventory—they’re about solving customer problems in a way that feels effortless.

    If you’ve been feeling scattered in your business or unsure where to focus next, this episode will give you clarity. Remember, success isn’t about doing everything—it’s about doing the right things. And most importantly, believing in yourself and your business is what truly makes the difference. Tune in now for practical insights you can apply right away!
