  • Shipping Settings Matter A Lot
    2023/12/19

    Shipping is complicated.  Understanding weights, box sizes, and regions is essential to make sure you are charging enough.

    In this episode, Madison Clark of Grief Cards, talks about the excitement of getting orders from all over the country on her launch day… and the stress of realizing that she had set up a default shipping price that was only enough to cover local shipments.

  • Don’t Rush to Hire Help
    2023/12/12

    When you discover something isn’t working in your business, the knee-jerk reaction can be to hire someone to solve the problem. But hiring a coach or expert is just like any other expense – you must determine if the revenue created from that expert will be commensurate with their cost.

    In this episode, Sally Meyers of Rebel Unstuck, talks about panic hiring coaches and spending far more money than she needed to.  She realized if she just stopped and took some time, she already had a lot of information and expertise – she just needed to trust herself.
