Welcome to another coaching episode! Today, I'm speaking with Mystral, a massage therapist and energy worker out of New York City. Her service-based business is growing well, but an idea for a product-based business naturally spun off from it that she wants to explore. She wants to launch a tea business with as few mistakes as possible.
First we start with ideation, then making the product, and then moving on to branding. Each step builds up to the next. We start by honing in on what she's actually going to sell, and then go over what it costs to make the product. From there, we take a look at how to price and position her teas to make sure she's selling for not only a profit, but also to the right people.
I applaud Mystral for seeking out support in these early stages of her product-based business to give her the fast-track to success. That’s what the Product Boss is all about: giving you the tools you need to avoid the mistakes most product business owners make!

If you're a product-based business owner, then chances are you're also a creative- meaning you constantly have ALL of these new ideas you're wanting to test and try. As a creative, one of the biggest struggles I see is being able to know where to focus and prioritize to keep the needle moving forward in your business. Sound familiar? That's exactly what I'm helping Rachel of Falcone Farms today so let's dive in.
Rachel is raising two kids, running a farm, already has one product-based business, and is now launching another. We talk through her new goat’s milk soap company, including shifting her ideal client and doing the math on cost, price, and quantity.
