How Willow Winters Built a Book Box Empire
Today we sit down with Willow Winters, romance author extraordinaire, TikTok sensation, and a titan in the subscription and book box space. Yes, we used a lot of big adjectives… that’s cause Willow is amazing, and we learn everything from her mindset to marketing tips to the BTS of running a book box so popular it needs its own warehouse. This one is a real treat.
