👋 WHO AM I?
I am Dylan, a multi-six figure Etsy & Shopify seller. My shop ranks in the 0.1% of Etsy shops worldwide and we reached $1M+ in sales in just 5 years. I am here to provide value to YOU through tips and tactical advice to start your new Etsy shop or grow your current Etsy shop to the multi-six-figure level and beyond. There's no fluff here - only tactics that add to your profit! While the success stories and testimonials we share are based on real experiences, they're not guarantees of similar results for everyone.

In this episode, Dylan sits down with Therese, an expert in wholesale and founder of Small Business Collaborative. They discuss the journey of transitioning product businesses into wholesale, with Therese sharing her background in fashion and sales, and the challenges small brands face. 

Key insights are provided on readiness for wholesale, curating products for retailers, and effective ways to establish business relationships. Therese also gives real-life examples of how she helped clients succeed in wholesale and offers advice on expanding beyond local markets. 

In this episode, we discuss:

[01:25] Therese's Journey: From Fashion to Wholesale

[03:41] Identifying Readiness for Wholesale

[05:17] Strategies for Approaching Retailers

[09:03] Expanding Beyond Local Markets

[17:05] Success Stories and Client Experiences

About Therese Oertenblad: 

Therese Oertenblad, founder of Small Business Collaborative, helps product-based business owners get their amazing creations into retail stores—without the overwhelm. She teaches them how to price for profit, sell with confidence (without the icky sales tactics), and build a strategy that fits into their busy schedules so they can grow their wholesale sales with ease.

Before becoming a business mentor and consultant, she spent years selling mass-produced gifts. Now, she works with creative and purpose-driven brands like Studio Wald, Made by Shannon, Claude & Co, Etta Loves, and Hello Day Planner—many of which now grace the shelves of Liberty, Selfridges, Fortnum & Mason, Harrods, Fenwick, and hundreds of independent shops across the UK and beyond.

As an introvert, Therese had to figure out how to sell in a way that felt right—without forcing herself to be someone she wasn’t. She spent over a decade in sales leadership in the home and gift industry and now sits on the National Committee for The Giftware Association. She also hosts Let’s Talk Shop, a seasonal podcast packed with stories and business advice.

When she’s not helping business owners grow their wholesale, you’ll find her travelling, testing new recipes, cuddling her dog Milo, and indulging in TV shows that some would call trashy.

About Sacia Ashe: 

Sacia has always been driven by creativity and the thrill of seeing a dream come to fruition. From art school to studying marketing and design in university, every step of my journey has led me here—helping founders build brands that don’t just exist but lead.

At Ashe Design Haus, we build category-defining brands for product-based founders who aim to set the standard, not settle for it. Through strategic visual identity design, brand activation, and Shopify experiences, we help businesses command attention, drive demand, and change the world with their products. Our work isn’t about chasing trends—it’s about creating brands with lasting impact.

Sacia believes branding is the difference between being seen and being chosen. It’s what turns a great product into a powerhouse business, what makes a brand the first and only choice in its category. I work with founders who are ready for their business to step into that level of authority—because if you’re building something meaningful, your brand should reflect that.

When she’s not refining strategies, designing brands, or leading her team, you’ll find her surfing, deep in a book, or painting—always creating, moving, and laughing along the way.
