Welcome back, product bosses! We have another unique coaching session with Sandra, the founder of Cattitude Crafts, who makes and sells beautiful handmade faux floral decor and centerpieces out of silk. If you're just starting your business or you’ve been in business for years, but your products aren’t making the sales you want to, then this episode is for you!

Sandra is feeling a lot of overwhelm in her business, and while she’s been in business for 3 years, she’s still not where she wants to be. Sandra believes a tailored marketing plan is the solution to her problem, but there might actually be something else holding her back. 

Together, we discuss overcoming imposter syndrome and overwhelm to still be productive, why you need to become known for something and what role your “why” plays, and how to make small, but quick marketing pivots to make the most of this holiday season!

Tune in as we figure out the “why” behind Sandra’s products and business so she can start making more sales and learn how you can apply this to your business as well, because if you’re missing your “why” then you won’t ever be able to grow your product business!

Welcome back product bosses! Today I’m sharing a hard truth which is, focusing only on selling is one of the biggest mistakes you can make in your product-based business. If you’re someone who has really been struggling to make any sales, you’ve seen a decline in your sales, your sales aren’t where you want them to be or really you’re anywhere in between, this episode is for you!

In this episode, I’m sharing the number one thing I have learned and seen from deep diving into and coaching so many product-based businesses this year because what I’ve realized is that things are changing in the product industry. It’s no longer just about getting more eyes and onto more platforms anymore, but rather it’s really about building a business that can support all of this and that you can sell your products from.

So tune in as I share with you what you really need to have in place before you can have a sellable product and a sustainable product business because it’s probably not what you think!

Welcome back, product bosses! We have another engaging coaching session with Julie, the founder of Savoure Kitchen, whose business specializes in gourmet nut mixes, barbecue sauces, and salad dressings. If you're still working a 9-5 but wanting to grow your product-based business “side hustle,” then this episode is for you!

Julie has been selling mostly at in-person events like farmers markets and while she has been seeing some success, she’s ready to expand beyond these events and beyond being local to bring in more eyes and customers, but she’s struggling to figure out how to do this with limited time.

Together, we dive deep into creating offers and how to increase average order value so that you can make more money with each purchase, how niching down can lead to your most simple path forward, and the importance of good time management skills and setting goals for yourself!

Tune in as we figure out how Julie can make the most of her limited time to grow her product biz side hustle, while still working her full time job, and how you can do the same in your business, whether you’re a full time or side hustle product boss.

Welcome back, product bosses! Today, I am so excited to share a live recording I did at Inbound this year with Claire Coder, the founder of Aunt Flow—a company dedicated to making period products accessible in public spaces and creating a supportive community around normalizing menstruation. Claire’s journey is so inspiring as she started her company out of a three-bedroom apartment in Ohio and her feminine hygiene dispensers are now present in over 60,000 bathrooms worldwide.

In this episode, we dive into Claire’s motivations and her unique path to entrepreneurship. At 18, she founded Aunt Flow by purchasing bulk period products and selling them directly to local businesses. Claire shares key insights on validating business ideas and developing pricing strategies, and emphasizes the importance of community and mentorship in growing a small business.

Claire also shares how she overcame challenges in raising capital (pitching to 86 firms before securing funding!), practical advice on taking a hands-on approach with your products, and the significance of persistence when it comes to owning a product-based business.

Tune in to learn more about Claire’s success and for actionable takeaways that you can apply to your own product-based business!

Welcome back, Product Bosses! In today’s episode, we discuss the challenges product-based business owners often face when reaching revenue milestones from $500,000 to multiple millions! But don’t worry, because even if you’re just starting out or haven’t reached six figures yet, you’ll still have plenty of takeaways!

When it comes to growing a million or multi-million dollar business, you face a different set of challenges compared to the ones you overcame to reach five figures or multiple-five figures. Challenges such as increased self-doubt with every decision you make, burnout (especially if you’re a solopreneur!), and an increased need to pivot when things do not go your way!

In this episode, we dive deep into strategies you can use to realign your mindset to overcome self-doubt, how to maintain work-life balance to prevent burnout, and the importance of learning from your failures. Plus we discuss why surrounding yourself with a strong network and community is crucial to success!

It’s time to think bigger so tune in now to discover actionable strategies for achieving and surpassing your revenue milestones!
