The Ecommerce Roadmap

Jen Cura has done what most makers only dream of—she's built a 12-person team that helps her produce one of the most personal, high-touch products you can sell: keepsake "memory" bears made from sentimental clothing.

In this episode, Jen walks us through the framework she used to break down her process, delegate tasks without losing quality, and build a team she trusts—so she could step out of production and into the CEO role.

What You'll Learn: ✔️ How she broke her handmade process into scalable pieces ✔️ The reason she hired task-specific roles instead of general helpers ✔️ The questions that helped her spot red flags early ✔️ Her training system that builds consistency across her team ✔️ Why this works even if you're not a maker—and even if you're hiring your first VA

In this episode, Katie shares what happened when she outsourced embroidery (spoiler alert- it was a disaster), how she hired her first employee—and then her second—and how she grew her subscription box from 70 to over 400 monthly subscribers by focusing on the numbers that mattered.

What You'll Learn: ✔️ Why outsourcing didn't solve her time problem ✔️ How hiring one person helped—and why it wasn't enough ✔️ The metric that tells her when to grow her team ✔️ How she pays herself based on facts, not feelings ✔️ Why she no longer considers herself a maker—and what she is instead

Raquel Rose had the dream scenario—her lead ads were bringing in nearly 900 new subscribers a week, and her email marketing was already converting well. So she leaned in and spent more on building her list.

But when she finally built a report to track where her new customers were coming from, what she found changed everything.

✅ How Raquel built the report that changed her strategy ✅ The one funnel that quietly outperformed all the rest ✅ Why her lowest-cost leads turned out to be the most expensive ✅ What she's doing now to fix the funnel (without starting over)
