The Subscription Box Show

Hello everyone, and welcome to this very special 100th episode of The Subscription Box Show!  Wow 100 episodes!  I knew the day and time would come, but never actually imagined how I’d feel.  And I must say, it feels extremely humbling and rewarding.  To know so many subscription box owners, entrepreneurs and leaders in the industry took time out of their busy schedules and lives to be on the show and give back to others like me and you who are trying to be better at this business is absolutely unbelievable.  So before I let you all know what this special milestone episode is about, I just want to thank from the bottom of my heart a few different people:

1. To all my guests and people who’ve contributed.  You are the reason people tune in 3 times a week!  To learn from your experience or expertise.
2. To my wife Christine, who is the graphic designer not only at Louis and Lea, but also to this podcast.  Without her, I’d have no logo, no content, and no episode artwork to put out every week.
3. To the man in the background who makes the show come to life, my amazing Editor Junard Jastiva. Junard, I can’t imagine the show without you, thanks buddy.
4. My coach and mentor Travis Chappell.  You are the one who taught me how to put out a professional sounding podcast.
5. To ALL my sponsors, thank you! My goodness, what an amazing feeling having such amazing companies invest in the show.
6. And finally, of course to you, all of you out there, the listeners of The Subscription Box Show!  Thank YOU!  To those of you who have been along for the ride ever since episode 1, all the way to the brand new listener, and everyone in between. It’s because of you that I continue to do this show.  To help subscription box entrepreneurs start, grow or scale your very own subscription business.  

Alright,  let’s get into this 100th episode.  And seeing as this podcast is now listened to on every single continent minus Antarctica, I thought it would be fitting to have on this important episode, an international group of guests!  8 of them to be precise.  Spanning from 3 different continents, and 6 different countries!

In this episode, I talk with someone who took her pre-existing knowledge in Corporate America, mixed it with a real life situation she had in her own life with her daughter, and used the subscription model to launch her idea to subscription domination.  I talk with none other than Deana Hicks, Owner and Founder of One Girl Inspired! 

I had the privilege of being introduced to Deana by a mutual friend, and alumni of The Subscription Box Show, super connector Kenny Kahn of Taptivate, so shout out to Kenny and the team doing great things at Taptivate. 

Deana Hicks is the Founder & Chief Inspiration Officer of One Girl Inspired, a monthly subscription for teen and tween girls ages 12-16years old.One Girl Inspired provides girls with tools and positive messaging that inspires,empower and motivate them believe in themselves, aspire to dream big, be their best selves, and one day make their own mark on the world. 

Before starting One Girl Inspired, Deana spent 20+ years in Marketing, helped build and launch multiple brands and start-ups, ran a corporate non-profit and even created and directed a music business camp for teens. Being a mom to a teen daughter, which is her true inspiration, led Deana to start One Girl Inspired. She believes that just one inspired girl can change the world.  

Deana launched One Girl Inspired in May 2019 and within 6 months was honored to be nominated by her community as a finalist in Charlotte Media Group’s 2019 Small Business Person of the Year.  And, in less than 17 months, One Girl Inspired is now in 44 States and 3 Canadian Provinces.  

In our conversation, Deana and I discuss a lot of different things, but a few that stick out are the important lessons she learnt from corporate America, and brought to her business and why you have to be willing to be yourself, and share your why!

In this episode, I talk with a self motivated entrepreneur who won’t take no for an answer!  Raise your hand A types!  I’m lifting mine way up.  For those who like to take control of their own destiny, and want to learn from a self-made subscription box superstar, you need to take notes from the one and only owner, and founder of Owl Post Books, Cassie Padgett!

Owl Post Books is a fun and interactive monthly book subscription for children!  They have Imagination Boxes, Imagination Mini, and YA Creative Writer's subscriptions.

Owl Post Books was created with a singular mission in mind, to provide amazing quality books in a convenient and fun way that is affordable for anyone. All boxes are curated by Cassie which has been an educator herself for over fifteen years.

Cassie and I dive into what it takes to build a subscription box from nothing.  Idea to full time business.  Cassie takes us along her journey and shows how anyone can start and build with the right work ethic, even if unconventional.   

Not all routines are created equal.  I talk a lot about the importance of routines.  But not everyone is built the same, and not everyone needs them.  Cassie is a perfect example of someone who does it her way.  And, isn’t that part of the drive to become an entrepreneur?  To be able to do it your way, to be the boss.  Like sleeping in, and being able to work later! 

Cassie and Owl Post Books have also given just to the listeners of this show and awesome gift for you or someone you love just in time for Christmas shopping! Use discount code TSBS2020 for 20% off your entire order when visiting the website, https://owlpostbooks.com

Today is our Weekly Friday segment called Focus Friday, where we deep dive into a subject that is specific to the subscription box industry.  And in this episode, you’ll learn how my wife Christine, which is also the co-founder of all our companies and I, set goals in advance for both The Subscription Box Show podcast and all of its different arms, and Louis and Lea, our subscription box company.  All this on this episode of The Subscription Box Show, 5 Easy Steps To Set Goals In 2021.

Goal setting can be simple, and you can get as granular and in depth as you want with this.  But I like to keep things visible and simple. So my 5 steps are set to take maybe 60 minutes, and to get you at least going in the right direction with some form of direction!

Nov 11 is Remembrance Day here in Canada, so I want to first off take a quick moment to acknowledge and thank the men and women who have fought for our freedom, and continue to fight for our freedom.  So thank you to our military here in Canada, and if you live elsewhere, just take a moment to appreciate what your country’s freedom means to you.

Alright, as mentioned, today is Nov 11, which also means it’s opening day at SubSummit 2020, so if you’re not already registered for this free event of the year in the subscription space, what the heck are you waiting for?  And that leads me to today’s guest.  She is the Founder and CEO of Boxology, and is also a massive part of Marked by Inked, Yogi and many more amazing subscription boxes. She is none other than Michelle Lange!

Michelle has worked closely with the subscription industry and more specifically the subscription trade association for years before branching out and starting her own subscription businesses.  She started working with the Subta guys before Subta was the mega thing it is today.  Her wealth of in depth knowledge is well known.  Michelle regularly consults with subscription industry business.  She has spoken at SubSummit in the past, recently spoke at Women In Subscription, and will be contributing once again at this year’s virtual SubSummit which is now officially here today, Nov.11 to Nov 13th. 

Michelle has worked with the likes of Ellen, yes the Ellen, Inked and Yogi. So it was a huge honor to get an hour plus to talk with Michelle about not only Boxology, but everything subscription and more.

In this episode, I have the pleasure to introduce to you for the first time, a Subscription Box Show exclusive if you will.  Egypt’s first and currently only subscription box, all the way from Cairo Egypt, co-founders and Epgyption power couple, Halim and Sherihan Hassabo of AV Tree and now AV Tween!

Think you have it hard or difficult in your country or where you live?  Imagine wanting to start a business in a place where no one knows what a subscription box even is!  Starting a business is hard enough.  But the hardship of introducing a new business structure is a whole other beast.  And that’s exactly what Halim and Sherihan were up against    At that point, Egypt’s ecommerce market hadn’t ever seen the subscription model yet. 
One of Halim’s and Sherihan’s jobs was to introduce a foreign concept to a new market, and try to grow it and be profitable.

Well against all odds, that’s exactly what they did.  Halim and Sherihan found a way.  And now, they not only have their original subscription box AV Tree that is very successful in Egypt, but they’ve launched another box, called AV Tweens, for yes, tweens.  And they’re not done yet.  Halim and Sherihan have even bigger goals and to become the subscription hub of Egypt and more! 

Since their launch, AV Tree has now grown and been able to partner with mega companies in their niche like; L’Oreal Paris, Versace, Yves Rocher, Garnier, Skincode, and tons more.  The list is endless and impressive.  How to contact and partner with suppliers is a huge part of our industry, and this couple have mastered it!

In this episode we talk pet subscriptions, with Canada’s largest and fastest growing dog subscription box company.  Both being good Canadian boys who love their hockey, we could have spent the entire interview talking hockey!  And we sort of did off line, but luckily for you, this is a business podcast, and we did get into everything subscription boxes.  We discuss tricks and tips to growing your subscription base, your audience and how to optimize your website to convert.  From my home country, all the way from Montreal Quebec, co-founder and CEO at Woof Pack, Hani Auran!

Ever think you have just the perfect idea, only to realize your perfect dream concept is in a super crowded niche, and that it’s probably saturated, and there’s probably zero chance of you making money in it.  Why would you, the big players already have the niche covered right?  Wrong!  Think again. Think in abundance!  

That’s exactly what Hani and his business partner Francis were up against when they had their idea… a dog subscription box back in 2017.  By then the likes of Bark Box, PupJoy, Bullymake and tons more already had the market dominated.  But they decided to go through anyway, and today, Woof Pack is Canada’s leading dog subscription box company.  They found a way and put in the time, a lot of it, turning their idea into a success reality.
Just how, well, you’ll have to tune in to find out exactly how. Today, Woof Pack has been featured on CdnBox Addict, Les Belles et les Betes, Canada’s Dragon Den, A Year of Boxes, and much much more.  In this episode Hani will show you how you can start and grow a subscription box in any niche, regardless of how crowded and saturated you think it might be!

Frequently asked questions he get asked from his customers: Allergies or "Which size should I pick?"
Who he would hire as his mentor/coach: Elon Musk
The most influential person he knew in the subscription box industry: Michael Dubin from Dollar Shave Club
49:32 "Just start something. Spend your time on your idea. This is the time now to do it. Don't wait, nobody's going to do it for you. There's no magic trick, it's just hard-work."

In this episode I have the sorprendente opportunity to Chiacchierare with one of the most fascinating food subscription boxes in the world!  All the way from Italy, I talk with Project Manager Giada Isolani, and Co-Founder Maria Gonzalez of Eattiamo, Live and Love Italian Food!!!  

Eattiamo started back in 2015 w its mission to bring authentic Italian food directly to your table with a box featuring each month a selection of Italian delicacies from small producers all across Italy.

Eattiamo is now one of the most popular Italian food subscriptions anywhere.  We talk about hardships of breaking into a market thousands of miles away.  Organic reach and unique “free” ways to get in front of your target market!!!

Eattiamo has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Elle, The Food Navigator, L’Italo Americano, la repubblica, and many more.

Giada Isolani is a local of the italian riviera, and is born and raised where Eattiamo is currently headquartered, in Cinque Terre, Italy.  She is the project manager and a marketing expert!

Maria Gonzalez is one of 3 co-founders of Eattiamo and has been around from the beginning, so between the two of them, this episode is unique from a couple of perspectives!
