Ep 419419. Listen for a Quick Cash Injection Idea using IG Stories
Stories can be a very underutilized portion of social media, especially on IG. When you’re trying to boost your sales, it can leave you guessing as to how to use them properly! Luckily, we’ve got a trick that will help you not only fill those stories, but also help you make more sales! Here’s a strategy we are seeing our students use—and the best part is that it doesn’t matter how many Instagram followers you have.This strategy is what we call “story sales”—a great way to keep your customers engaged and buying. The basic idea is this: post a sequence of photos in order for you to sell your goods on your Instagram stories. Include your prices and show what is available and accessible to your customers. Since stories only stay up for 24 hours, sometimes you need to repost the photos, but that’s pretty much it! There are a few reasons this works–one is that idea of a “scarcity mindset”. Your potential customers will worry that inventory is dwindling or the sale’s timer is running out, and it may just push them over the fence to make that purchase.This can be a great system for those who don’t want to show their face, for someone looking to get a bit of a cash injection for the holidays, or just someone wanting to experiment with some different tactics (after all, nobody can see what happens behind the closed doors of your DMs!) Try it out—it may just be the perfect strategy for your business.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge! Commit to making 1 in 5 of your purchases from a small business, whether online or offline.

Ep 393393. It is Possible to Enjoy Your Holiday Season and Crush it in Business, Here’s How
We are just about 100 days away from the Holiday season, believe it or not! Does that stress you out?We know the Holidays can be busy and hectic, but 100 days is plenty of time to prepare and make sure you’re ready to crush it in your business—all while still being able to enjoy the Holidays yourself. We’re going to help you pre-plan so that you feel as prepared as you can.When it comes to getting ready for the Holidays, there are three main things that are important to prepare for:Time: We all have a limited amount of time every day; you need to be clear about how much time you want to spend on your business, and how much you want to spend with your family. If you don’t prepare for this beforehand, you’re going to find more time than you’d like going right into your business.Scaling: Being busier can mean more work, but not if you scale properly. Going back to the focus on time, you’ll want to figure out how you can get more work done without eating up all of your time.Focus: When you’re clear on what you want to accomplish in your business, it becomes easier to make time for those things that really matter.We go over all of this and more in The Product Boss’ Guide to Getting Holiday-Ready. And best of all: it’s free!

Ep 390390. How Highlighting Overlooked Holidays Created a Thriving Business with Sarah Gulfraz of Peacock Supplies
For this Small Biz Founders episode, Masterminder Sarah Gulfraz comes to us all the way from across the pond—that’s England, FYI—where she runs Peacock Supplies as founder. Peacock Supplies offers party and gift supplies specializing in multicultural and multi faith celebrations. They sell both to stock international retailers, independent stockers around the world and direct to consumer.It’s pretty common to see Christmas, Easter, and many of the predominant faith-based holidays represented and celebrated throughout the world, but for anyone who falls outside of that religion, they may not see their holidays represented at all—at least not with the same amount of energy and excitement.We talk about:Sarah’s entrepreneurial influences,how her early work experiences shaped her for business, andwhere she gets her drive to always be innovating.Many of the best business ideas come from meeting a need that you have. Sarah wanted to address a problem she noticed when trying to get her kids as invested in her personal holidays as they were with the mainstream ones, and now she provides that to people around the world.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

Ep 388388. Making Big Business Shifts & Beating the Odds with Danielle Beauregard of Fusion by Design Collars
Danielle Beauregard is the CEO and founder of Fusion by Design Collars which sells, as she jokingly calls it, “bougie collars for dogs.” They craft high-end leather collars and leashes, many of them custom-made, and embellish them with Austrian crystals, leather carvings, and paint.She started her business purely by accident. After leaving her comfy corporate IT job to start a business in dog training, she began using her longtime hobby of leathercrafting to make collars for her dogs, and that quickly spread by word of mouth as she fulfilled individual orders until The Virus That Shall Not Be Named hit and service-based industries dried up. She quickly had to pivot into focusing on those dog collars and leveraging her existing network to make that her full-time job.You’re going to hear Danielle give us the honest details about:How to pivot when life circumstances unexpectedly change,why you shouldn’t do everything in your business even when you can do everything, andbeing open to new business models as your business grows.In just over two years, Danielle has turned something she did on the side into over a quarter million dollars in revenue. She got there through acting fast, using the skills she already had, and hiring—even when she felt like she could do everything herself. And now, with the help of the Mastermind, she’s going to take her business to the next level.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

Ep 384384. How Lori Harder is Building a Women-First Company in Lite Pink
We’ve talked before about our journey to becoming investors in Lite Pink, a women-led beverage company founded by Lori Harder with a mission of empowering other women and sparking conversations. Now we’re excited to dive further into her story with the woman herself!She shares her inspiring story. Lori had a small, isolated life growing up—she grew up in a small town, was homeschooled, and had a very restrictive religious upbringing. Once she started branching out she found that it was really hard to make friends, especially quality ones. She knew she was meant for something bigger. And as she pursued that, she realized that there is only so much that you can do by yourself. You need a network, a tribe, to help you in life. That’s where her business started, and that’s at the core of what she does today.She also talks about:Making the most of unexpected delays,creating genuine connections, andasking for help in building your business.The biggest message we took away from this conversation is that you are never alone. Whether it’s the struggles you face in your business, the problems you’re trying to solve in your own life, or the message you’re trying to shout out to the world—there are people with you where you’re at that you can create a community around.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

Ep 383383. Trend Alert: Consumers are Paying for Wellness
We don’t advocate chasing trends at all—some of the best marketing tips out there are timeless. But following trends can be helpful in influencing the direction and flavor of your marketing so that it speaks to what matters to your customers and the world at large. And today, one of the hottest trends that customers are hungry for is wellness.The wellness industry is bringing in $1.5 trillion dollars annually, and consumers are looking for wellness across every purchasing category. But what actually is wellness, and how can it apply to your product if you’re not specifically in that market?According to a report by McKenzie & Co., consumers view wellness across these six categories:Better health,better fitness,better nutrition,better appearance,better sleep, andbetter mindfulness.Even if you don’t fit into one of these categories, you can certainly market to them. As long as you understand that wellness is important to consumers, you can highlight the ways your product ties into wellness. You don’t have to change what you’re doing or start a new business, but it is valuable to understand what your customer values in their life. When you can relay the value of wellness in your business so that it speaks to your customers in a way that resonates, you are going to see results.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

Ep 381381. How You Should Really Be Using Social Media for Your Business
If you’ve been following business coaches or anyone offering entrepreneurial advice online over the past ten years, you’ve probably been told—in no uncertain terms—that you need social media for your business. And yet, for many of us, social media just isn’t fun and we’re not seeing direct business results from it. So is it true? And if you need social media, how do you actually use it to see results?Whether you’re talking about Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or whatever platforms come out in the future, we’re going to dive into what social media is for, what it can do for your business, and what you should be posting.Things change very quickly on social media, so it’s hard to look at common advice from even just a year ago and apply it today. But let’s look at a kind of marketing that’s been around forever: TV commercials. Now, remember the last commercial you watched? They weren’t telling you to buy now. They were just trying to make you aware of the brand or product and paint a positive picture of what your life would look like with it. You still have to go to the store and find the product and put it in your cart and buy it, but you aren’t likely to do any of that if you’ve never heard of the brand before. That’s called brand recognition, and it’s what you need to be doing on social media today.In order to build brand recognition on social media, you need to:prove that you exist by putting things out there,share what your customer needs to hear to know, like, and trust you, andoffer a “window shopping” experience to show your customers that you meet their needs, wants, and desires.It’s important that you get started with this process early because it takes time to build relationships. You aren’t going to see direct sales like so many people expect, but if you start establishing brand recognition and building trust now, come the holiday season, people will feel more comfortable buying from you.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

Ep 376376. Growing an Iconic Brand with Jaclyn Johnson of Create & Cultivate
Jaclyn Johnson is one of the most incredible people out there – helping other small business owners grow and scale their businesses and bringing thousands of women together with her company. She’s an entrepreneur and product boss who started both of her companies with nothing but a laptop and an idea. She quickly grew them from self-funded side-projects to multi-million dollar businesses and nationally recognized brands, including the iconic Create & Cultivate.Jaclyn is the multi-hyphenate entrepreneur. Her parents were both entrepreneurs in completely different fields, and she was always involved in their business in some way. It was in her blood and her upbringing. From a young age, Jaclyn was always willing to work hard and do what it took to see her vision come to life.Create & Cultivate was an event ahead of its time. She was early to the blogging game and became a name in the influencer space. As she went to influencer events, she had this realization: There’s no reason we can’t throw events that look and feel beautiful for ambitious women outside of the influencer space. On top of that, it was something that was needed—entrepreneurship is lonely, especially for women, and they need a space where they can connect. Create & Cultivate became that for so many of them!She talks about growing her business, what you need as you’re growing, finding the right community, her experience selling part of Create & Cultivate, and why she invests in female-founded businesses.
