This weeks episode I’m joined by Sallie King who started her business urbansize in 2015 leaving behind a career in law to establish her own business creating stylish furniture for small spaces. 

Slowly, establishing her business through etsy, not on the high street and DTC, We are debunking the overnight success myth and focusing on real stories, real business , real life 

Her innovative floating bedside tables began to take off with sales initially coming from Etsy,  Sallie shares how she reimagined the product to drive more sales adapting her business to the changing consumer landscape

 

Some of the key takeaways are:

• Getting validation for your business can give you more confidence and motivation. 
• Starting a business with one product is possible, and diversifying with variations of that product can be a smart growth strategy.
• If copycats emerge, take immediate action. 
• Explore marketing solutions such as blogging, & PR so you are not solely reliant on social media.
• Showing up on social media as an introvert 
• Knowing when to expand - Using a fullfilment center meant Sallie could expand her business faster and increase her income.
