  • First you GIVE, then you ASK with Riche Holmes Grant

    I'm really excited about today's podcast because I'm talking to one of my heroes of entrepreneurship, Riche Holmes Grant. Riche is the founder of BambiniWare - baby and Mom products that are useful and cute at the same time. Riche shares how she prioritizes her day-to-day, the importance of giving before asking in your business, and how she keeps it all together. Oh, and then there's the working with Ariana Huffington, Martha Stewart, and that time she got an email with a special request from the Oprah folks.

  • Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone and Getting Sales

    Today's podcast is about a a creative entrepreneur client who I met with the other day. She was stuck in PLANNING mode instead of DOING mode. She had to step out of her comfort zone (product creation) and keep marketing for Holiday sales. She didn't think she could get any more sales and didn't want to "bother" people.

    With a little push (and acceptance f fear of rejection) she made 3 more sales from just one email. Bam.

    The Christmas season is so crucial and people want to spend, you just have to make it easy for them. Listen to the Podcast and if you're so inclined, I'd appreciate it if you left an honest review.

  • Before You Sell Your Product To Retailers

    This podcast covers my checklist of what you need to have ready BEFORE you approach a retail buyer. What YOU, the creator, are thinking is not even close to the way THEY, the buyers, are thinking. When you get a chance to show your line to a retail buyer, you want to be prepared. They will NOT be patient with you if you don't have professional looking line sheets and selling tools. If you don't know your delivery dates, terms, pricing, and sizing info, buyers will be frustrated you may lose a chance at an order.

  • From a Big Business to a Small One With Ericka Engelman

    In today's episode, I interview Ericka Engelman from Ericka Engelman Couture, in Carmel, CA. Ericka is SO HONEST – she even talks numbers. She tells us how much she grossed in her couture business and how much she was able to take home. She's not shy about her struggles or her successes and she doesn't mince words. She is a tremendous, sharing entrepreneur and I think you're going to love her as much as I do!
