This week's chat is with
Bari J. Ackerman, of Bari J. Designs. Bari designs art for
products, and during our conversation she tells us exactly what
that entails. As you're about to hear, Bari is the ultimate
self-starter and self motivator, and her can-do attitude is
infectious! In this episode, she talks about how she went from
making handbags to sell at local boutiques, to selling on Etsy,
where she found the market to be a bit saturated, and how the need
to differentiate herself on there led her to design her own fabric.
She shares how she took the leap from designing on the computer to
painting, and we discuss the role social media, specifically
Instagram, plays in her business and sales.

Bari was kind enough to
squeeze me into her busy schedule on a recent trip to Los Angeles
from her home in Scottsdale, Arizona, and I can't tell you how
excited I was to talk with her. And I'm even more excited for you
to hear what Bari had to say.
