Now Gina has been in my community for a long time and actually started her first product biz as a hobby!

So one of the greatest lessons for a product boss is learning to let go, outsource, delegate, and ask for help—all the things that feel naturally uncomfortable to us. Do you feel the same way? As we grow as business owners, parents, and individuals, one of the hardest things is asking for help. Another challenge is releasing the expectation that we should and can do everything at once.If you want to grow your business, then you need to outsource some tasks so you can focus on the bigger picture and buy back your time. Many of us use words like balance and juggle, but we feel tired, stressed, and stretched too thin trying to be everything to everyone.You really want to figure out what you want in your life, what aligns best with you, and how you can achieve that, because we're all problem solvers. But it's not about doing it all by ourselves. It’s about finding the help we need. There's never been a time when we, especially as women, could do anything we wanted in our business, generate any revenue we aimed for, and manage full-time jobs, family, caregiving, and everything else on our plates.So how can you outsource, get help, and pay for the things that will move you forward? It’s crucial to release the overwhelming expectations we place on ourselves. Let’s dive into how you can align your priorities and pave your own path to success.Resources:Consistent content is key to getting more people to see and buy your products.

Have you thought about selling your products on TikTok? In this episode, we have a TikTok insider walk us through setting up a TikTok Store and using its affiliate program. The first thing you should know about getting a TikTok Store (not to be confused with TikTok Business) is that it can be quick and easy. It usually only takes a day or two for your TikTok store account to be approved and go live. Then you can simply link the Shopify account you already use to sell your products. TikTok will sync with your Shopify inventory on an ongoing basis. You also have the option to manually input your products to your TikTok store natively.Now let’s talk money. TikTok charges 2% plus thirty cents on transactions. The other money item: You can pay independent creators to market your products. There are two ways to do this: Shop Plan and Targeted Plan. In Shop Plan, you upload your product to the TikTok affiliate marketplace and then affiliates (TikTokers who have atleast 5,000 followers) can choose a product to market for you based on a sales-only commission. Targeted Plan is a little more involved– you can evaluate creators’ target audiences, success rate, etc., then choose one based on how well you think they fit your product.If you want to tap into the hot TikTok market, this episode is a can’t miss!Resources:TikTok ShopStruggling to create content for your business?
