Monique Rodriguez is the founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, an all natural hair care and beauty brand. Monique created Mielle Organics' first product in her kitchen. Now, the brand has products in over 85 countries – and still pursues the same vision it did from when it operated out of Monique's kitchen, with the same values.Monique worked as a registered nurse for almost a decade. She became a nurse initially to make her mother happy, and to have a career with financial stability. As a wife and mother of two girls, it was a big risk to leave her stable career path to pursue her passion. Yet she always had a love of beauty and haircare, and once she saw the engagement of her online community with the products she was creating in the kitchen, she decided to bet on herself and launch her own product, and that's when Mielle Organics was born.In 2021, Monique became the first Black woman to raise a non-controlling nine-figure investment, over $100M, in a deal with Berkshire Partners. In 2023, Monique made history again when Mielle Organics was acquired by Procter & Gamble in an unprecedented acquisition, the largest exit ever for a Black Female beauty founder, in which she will continue to serve as CEO of the company. As part of her deal with P&G, she also established Mielle Cares, the non-profit arm of her company, with a $10M donation that was matched by P&G. In this week's episode we discuss the many business ventures Monique tried that didn't work out, why she decided to pursue her nursing career and the biggest skills she learned there that have propelled her when starting her own business. We also chat about her process of building a passionate community through social media, how that helped her create product market fit for her product, and the steps she took to find a chemist to work on her first batch that ended up selling out. Monique also ends on sharing insights on manifesting success, the exact steps she took to bring her ideas to life, her advice on navigating challenging situations both personally and professionally, and so much more. In this episode, we'll talk to Monique about:* Confronting fears and building self-belief. [03:33]* Influence of strong women in Monique's upbringing. [06:54]* Skills from nursing experience. [15:00]* Stepping out of introversion and leaving comfort zone. [19:36]* High-risk pregnancy experience in 2013. [22:16]* Initial salon idea before Mielle Organics. [26:24]* Funding Mielle's early stages. [31:02]* Starting Mielle at home and the initial orders. [34:51]* Driving success during Mielle Organics' launch.

Courtlyn is a perfect testament to what you can achieve with pure passion for what you do and an unrelenting commitment to seeing your vision all the way through. For as long as she can remember, the fine arts have always been a fundamental part of her identity and expression but when she enrolled in college, she made a practical decision to study digital design. After 9 years as a graphic designer in the corporate space, she received a thyroid cancer diagnosis that changed the trajectory of her life. Courtlyn realized life was too short not to chase her own dreams and help other creatives do the same. So, with no plan and an endless amount of courage, she quit her job and set off on her entrepreneurial journey.   In today's episode, Carlyn sits down with the truly inspiring Courtlyn Jones, graphic designer, visual artist, and founder and CEO of The Design Database, the leading women-owned online community and job platform for female and non-binary creatives. She shares with us the mission behind her company, how she navigated leaving corporate while battling cancer, why it's so important to have moments of pause, the DIY projects that laid the foundation for her business, how her business functions like an Indeed meets Instagram, and so much more!   “It's all a learning process. I've learned my lessons now. And now I know how to be able to work smarter going forward.” - Courtlyn Jones  This week on Startups in Stilettos:   Courtlyn shares the inspiration and motivation behind her business (2:04)  Courtlyn dives into her creative background (3:36)  Courtlyn shares how she navigated leaving corporate to focus on building her business (5:57)  What the Design Database has to offer for creatives and clients (8:59)  What Courtlyn didn't know before going into this business (11:35)  Courtlyn's biggest achievement since being in business (13:51)  Courtlyn's favorite business tools (16:14)  Courtlyn's thoughts on AI and chat GPT as replacements for human creatives (18:19)  This week's fun fact (22:23)  Resources Mentioned:  Asana Canva  Adobe Suite  Our favorite quotes:  “I know how hard it is to be a creative female in this industry. And how in corporate, there are so many opportunities that aren't open to us as much as we want them to be. Being a freelancer, it also has its issues as well. So I wanted my own platform where it was a space for creatives to feel safer and also to make new friends, get inspired by other creatives as well, and feel empowered, but also have the tools that they need to attract higher quality clients and companies.” - Courtlyn Jones   “I designed the entire site from scratch, learn how to do all of the coding, and made it all work the way that I want it to finally and I was up to like four in the morning every night for weeks doing it. And it's finally up and it's so beautiful and I'm really proud of that.” - Courtlyn Jones    “Having the passion and the soul and the actual emotion behind the art from an actual human being, I think, that takes a huge win over AI any day. So I really hope that the world isn't going to become so soulless that we can't see that going forward or forever.” - Courtlyn Jones  Join the Entreprenista League today at entreprenista.com/join.

Entrepreneurs often suffer from "superhero syndrome"—the misconception that to be successful, they must do everything themselves. Not only are they the boss, but also the salesperson, HR manager, copywriter, operations manager, online marketing guru, and so much more.

But outsourcing expert and "Virtual CEO," Chris Ducker knows how you can get the help you need with resources you can afford. Small business owners, consultants, and online entrepreneurs don't have to go it alone when they discover the power of building teams of virtual employees to help run, support, and grow their businesses. Virtual Freedom: How to Work with Virtual Staff to Buy More Time, Become More Productive, and Build Your Dream Business is the step-by-step guide every entrepreneur needs to build his or her business with the asset of working with virtual employees. Focusing on business growth, Ducker explains every detail you need to grasp, from figuring out which jobs you should outsource to finding, hiring, training, motivating, and managing virtual assistants. With additional tactics and online resources, Virtual Freedom is the ultimate resource of the knowledge and tools necessary for building your dream business with the help of virtual staff.

British entrepreneur Chris Ducker has experienced the power of a book to grow his business not once, but twice.   His first book, Virtual Freedom: How to Work with Virtual Staff to Buy More Time, Become More Productive, and Build Your Dream Business, was published in 2014 and continues to sell well today.   Four years later, Chris wrote and self-published Rise Of The Youpreneur: The Definitive Guide to Becoming the Go-To Leader in Your Industry and Building a Future-Proof Business.  Chris is a serial entrepreneur and owns and operates several businesses, including the personal brand education company Youpreneur.com. He employees more than 350 full-time employees. Nowadays he spends most of his time coaching and mentoring successful entrepreneurs, as well as investing in and advising startup companies.  Top Takeaway: Be Strategic About Using Your Book To Grow Your Business  Chris tells Published Author show host Josh Steimle that when Virtual Freedom was published, he didn't want to be tacky or overly obvious in promoting his business Virtual Staff Finder. “I did want to be strategic, but, but I didn't want to be seen to be strategic, if that makes sense,” says Chris.   In the approximately 280 or so pages in the book, Virtual Staff Finder is mentioned only four or five times.   “But this I know for sure is the big deal closer: At the back of the book, we had a resources section. And at the beginning of the book, I said, ‘You're going to see lots and lots of resources mentioned throughout the pages of this book. To save you time skimming back through all of the pages to find them, when you're done reading it, I put them all at the back in a nice convenient list for you, along with website addresses what it's for, etc'.”  At the beginning of the Virtual Freedom's resource section a note appeared referencing a companion guide to the book, downloadable for free at Virtual Staff Finder's website.   Placing the guide on his website meant that thousands of people signed up for it, and in doing so happily submitted their email address to Virtual Freedom.  Chris says his strategy “worked brilliantly. There are 1000s and 1000s of people who have opted in for the companion guide over the last six years. And many, many of them have converted to paying clients.”  He says Virtual Freedom has been so successful because it's: “A no brainer for people to pick that book up, learn what they needed to do and then say: ‘I can either carry on doing what I'm already doing and being overwhelmed and not really getting anywhere. Or I can follow the advice in this book, and go out and find a VA and build my virtual team, or option C is, I can use the author's company to help me do it'.”  With this approach, Chris gathered tons of new clients and about three or four months after that book came out, he literally doubled the size of the team working at Virtual Freedom.   Self-Publishing Is The Way To Go   Chris is a strong advocate of self-publishing, for a number of reasons. First of all, by self-publishing, an entrepreneur retains the rights to their book. Next, speed. With traditional publishing, it can take up to two years for a book to be released - a very long time-frame in the world of an entrepreneur.   Use a Developmental Editor   Regardless of which route an entrepreneur selects, Chris says that: “My big piece of advice, whether you go traditional or you self-publish, is that you must hire a developmental editor to work with you on the book.   “This isn't an editor who will check for spelling and punctuation and grammar, and all that stuff. Yeah, you should definitely get somebody to look over that side of things as well,” he explains. “This is a developmental editor, someone who can read the book, chapter by chapter, and help you develop a better book.   Links  LinkedIn  Twitter  Instagram  Facebook  ChrisDucker.com  SUBSCRIBE TO PUBLISHED AUTHOR PODCAST  If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe.

002 Most people go into businesses that are service based businesses.  There's a whole new model available to entrepreneurs or people that are just unhappy in their current career - this is called an online, expert based business. This is what my Brilliant Life™ Business teaches! You take your expertise, knowledge and experiences and package it in a way to get it out into the world via the internet. Your focus is on serving, not selling.  You're focused on serving others with the knowledge that you've gathered over your life - hopefully save them time, money and pain.   How satisfying is that?! So, the secret is simplifying How to Grow Your Online Business the Easy Way - Even if You've Never Sold Anything Online.  I teach a 4 Step System to Automate Sales for your Online Business, for service or expert based businesses, utilizing what's called an online funnel.  A sales funnel takes a large group of potential buyers and funnel it down to actual sales. I believe websites are dead.  They're overwhelming. Funnels simplify a buyers experience. It is kinda like going to a car lot and there's only one car salesman working and when he's working, he's working.  When he's not and the lot is closed, no sales are being made. With an online sales funnel and the power of the internet, you have sales people working for you 24-7, around the clock, while you're sleeping, bringing in new, qualified leads to your product or service. 1) Build Your Audience:  Build Your Show Pick one platform to focus on Speed this up:  paid traffic via ads 2) Create a lead magnet: Lead people from your show to your lead magnet.
