Barbara is direct and to the point: She will be successful despite of circumstances, challenges and problems that will arise! She is creative, hard-charging and certain in her strategy. One of my biggest takeaways is how she created her own market on Facebook: Barbaras Funky Treasures where she can market to her group (her audience +1200 members). Genius! This is a pick yourself up, dust yourself off and put your head down and do the work interview! No coddling here, won't be tolerated, you can do it, the market opportunities are incredible!

Golden Nuggets:
Design a lifestyle that would fit your business and see if that is where you want to go? If not, then change your business!
Mitigate your risk: based on price, buy them all, bundle the product for exclusivity!
Make a stop doing list! Then quit doing them!
