The process of building a company, getting funded and bringing a product to market isn't just data-driven. It's gut-driven too. The numbers matter, but when you're building a product without market acceptance, you have to trust your intuition and persevere when you're told it won't work.   In many ways, taking an entrepreneurial risk is a lot like taking a creative risk. You have a vision not many understand until you convince them. The journey can be lonely, and you'll question yourself all the time. Considering that our guest took Ugg public and wrote a novel for the first time, she would know how similar the journeys are.   How do you keep going when you're doing something so disruptive that no one sees the vision? What pitfalls do entrepreneurs fall into in that early funding stage? How do you learn to trust your gut?    In this episode, I'm joined by entrepreneur, leader and coach, Diana Wilson. She shares lessons from her own career journey, what it was like taking Deckers (Ugg) public and what every entrepreneur should be doing to succeed.   Guest Bio   Diana Wilson is a self-described industry agnostic, in addition to her most recent roles as CEO, Diana has held a variety of C-suite positions across a wide range of industries—from footwear to music—in roles covering all points along the strategic, financial and operational spectrum. Early career highlights include the high-intensity thrill of taking Deckers (Ugg, Hoka) public in 1993, spearheading a number of successful M & A transactions. Most recently she has completed a passion project of writing a fictional novel and launching a Substack Newsletter, Wit & Wisdom where she writes about everything from business and creativity—to health & wellness—to living a purpose-filled life. Connect with Diana on LinkedIn and subscribe to her newsletter Wit and Wisdom.    Host Bio   Jayla Siciliano, Shark Tank Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor, MBA and experienced investor/founder in markets from consumer products to short-term rentals. If you like Alex Hormozi, Tim Ferriss, Entrepreneurs on Fire with John Lee Dumas, or you follow sharks like Barbara Corcoran, Lori Greiner or Mark Cuban (who invested in my Shark Tank pitch) you'll love this show!

When she left L.A. to start her career Diana Wilson didn't know her children's allergies would lead her to create luxury hair care products that were safe for her family, clean for consumers and internationally acclaimed in the fashion world. Her lesson learned? Some of the most amazing experiences and adventures are borne from less-than-ideal circumstances. Embrace it all.

The Queens Memory Project brings you the fifth episode of season two of the Queens Memory Podcast. This season we have collected the documented experiences of Queens residents during the COVID-19 Pandemic.   In this episode, we hear from first responders of color who have been on the front lines of the pandemic from the very beginning.    Diana Wilson has been an EMT with the New York Fire Department for 17 years in Springfield Gardens. Rob Semple has been a firefighter with the FDNY in Corona for less than a year. Both Rob and Diana are first responders during the COVID-19 pandemic. Rob, who is new to the force, remembers their 20-week training being cut short by two weeks in order to get more firefighters in the field as soon as possible to help with the pandemic. Indeed, medical 911 calls to the FDNY rose from 4,000 to 6,500 per day, including a notable spike in calls involving cardiac arrest, and a 400% increase in cardiac arrest home deaths.  Diana notes a new rule for paramedics, implemented because of the pandemic: Limit your use of CPR. This rule was put in place by the Regional Emergency Medical Services Council of New York City, in an attempt to keep COVID-19 positive people from entering hospitals and infecting others. However, following widespread objections, the New York Health Department rescinded the order. Previously, according to New York City EMS protocol, CPR should be initiated to all patients in a state of cardiac arrest, unless signs of obvious death are present or the patient has Do Not Resuscitate orders in place.  Diana and Rob discuss the emotional toll they have felt during these trying times. Diana lost her husband to an illness in April 2019, and after COVID-19 took hold in New York City, she sent her children to live somewhere outside of the epicenter. She reports feeling isolated without her family around her, especially after two of her colleagues died by suicide in the midst of the pandemic.  Similarly, Rob notes that many of their fellow firefighters find comfort in spouses and significant others, which Rob does not have. While the FDNY offers mental health support, neither Diana nor Rob have utilized it, though both encourage people to find support within their communities. Rob also reflects on the unifying effect 9/11 had on the FDNY as a result of so much shared loss, and they lament that the pandemic hasn’t brought about the same response. Fellow EMS worker Christell Cadet tested positive for COVID-19 in March and was told to come into work anyway. (In the early days of the pandemic this was not unheard of because hospitals were so overwhelmed.) Cadet has asthma, a respiratory condition which she is 20% more likely to have as a  Black American woman than a non-Hispanic white American woman. Eventually, Cadet went to the hospital, where her condition worsened and she was put in a medically induced coma and placed on a ventilator. (COVID-19 patients that require ventilators are always put into comas.) Cadet awoke from her coma a month later. All medical personnel responding to the COVID-19 pandemic work long hours, are under immense stress, and literally put their lives at risk while working. It is an incredibly dangerous job, and workers like Cadet and 100,000 others have paid a high price. For this reason, there has been a widespread call for hazard pay to be distributed to essential workers, like medical staff, who put their lives on the line for us all. Hazard Pay has been a point of contention between first responders and the government since the onset of the pandemic. “Hazard Pay” is additional pay for workers performing hazardous duties. Diana, as an EMS worker, has not received hazard pay for working on the front lines of the deadly pandemic. She reports hearing that doctors and nurses received hazard pay -- which could be because certain private hospitals and private companies have offered bonuses or increased pay for employees working in hazardous conditions. Yet no city or state funding for hazard pay has been passed in New York -- meaning no front line medical workers in city hospitals have seen any additional payment for battling COVID first-hand.  Governor Cuomo has expressed support for hazard pay. Early on he called for 50% hazard pay to come from the federal government. He has supported the passage of the Heroes Act, which would allocate $200 billion for hazard pay. While the act was passed by the House of Representatives in May, it - or any other stimulus package - has yet to be passed by the Senate. The pay gap between FDNY employees has long been a point of contention, even before COVID-19. As noted in the episode: Starting pay for FDNY EMT is $35,000 and rises to $50,000 over five years.  Starting pay for FDNY paramedics is $48,000 and rises to $65,000 over five years.   Starting pay for FDNY firefighters is $45,000 and rises to $110,000 over five years. Starting pay for NYPD officers is $42,000 and rises to $85,000, with an upwards estimate of $100,000 with overtime and other benefits. As discussed in last week's episode of Queens Memory, the Black Lives Matter movement has swept the nation. Breonna Taylor was a 26-year-old black woman who worked as an EMT in Louisville, KY. On March 13, she was shot and killed by Louisville police while asleep in her bed. Diana discusses her fears about raising children in a time and place where they will be judged by the color of their skin. Rob shares their dismay that the pandemic hasn’t slowed the murder of black, brown, and trans people. Indeed, the number of police shootings in 2020 shows no significant change from the same timeframe in 2019 and 2018. Instead, murders of transgender people in 2020 has surpassed last year’s total. Rob and Diana have noticed a lack of cultural and racial awareness among their colleagues. In Queens, where half the residents identify as POC or BIPOC, emergency response workers like EMS or firefighters must work quickly and comfortably in homes of families whose cultures may be unfamiliar to them.  FDNY EMS workers are made up of 54% racial minorities, while firefighters are only 22% racial minorities. Cultural Competency in Disaster Response is the awareness of culture, race, gender, class, age, and faith in an emergency and being able to work professionally while respecting the different factors that may play into the encounter. Training materials can be found online, but it is unclear if Cultural Competency training is provided to or required of FDNY workers.   This episode of Queens Memory was produced by Jordan Gass-Poore’ in conjunction with Sam Riddell, Anna Williams, Jo-Ann Wong, and Natalie Milbrodt. Editing by Anna Williams with mixing by Briana Stodden and music from Elias Ravin and the Blue Dot Sessions.  Special thanks for funding support from the New York Community Trust.

Enjoy the episode - Happy Marketing! www.marketingstudylab.co.uk https://www.linkedin.com/in/petersumpton/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/marketingstudylab/ https://twitter.com/cousinp81(@cousinp81) Intro Where is the place to be? Why is location (physical or digital important). This will become apparent a little bit later on. Diana can basically turn your video, audio and graphics into something that people want to learn from.  But first we’re chatting to Diana Wilson, a freelance video editor who’s niche is within the online course creation market. Taking your audio and video and making into something people want to learn from. Not only that but Diana also helps her clients with the sales and marketing elements of their business. Certain circumstance (as we’ll find out later) is what drove Diana to enter this market, but in doing so it became apparent that this was not only her passion, but she was pretty darn good and what she offered.   Takeaways - If you’re struggling to understand where you fit in life or where your passions is that you can make a living around, Diana has the perfect antidote: Write everything down, find the middle, how you can combine these elements and focus on this and solely this – your sweet spot!  - When creating an online course, audio, visual, content and the value you bring are all important aspects. If you know your audience, you can tailor what you are providing to what they actually want rather than what you ‘think’ they need. Two very different propositions indeed. - Preparation, preparation, preparation. Start with the basics and then develop from there. If you can create a roadmap for the entire development process then this will keep you on course, reduce procrastination and make you more efficient. Which is very similar to writing a Marketing Assignment. Do your prep, start off with the main points you want to get across and then develop your answer from there.   Top Tip – 7 P’s - Place Where do you by your stuff? Online, retail store… 'round the back'? Regardless of where you purchase, when you are thinking of ‘Place’ within a marketing mix there are a few elements that are critical to consider when thinking of your route to market.  The first element is how much control do you need within the whole supply chain? If you need to keep a tight control of what your product and service looks like, the packaging, protection and the delivery as this is what make you unique then its worth considering going direct to consumer. If you are happy to relinquish control or it’s more cost effective, it may be worth handing this over to a Distributor or a Wholesale who will take this task away from you. Other elements that may determine your channel selection could be: - Geographical location. If local the  you may be able to facilitate delivery, international, is it better to hand this over to an expert that already has the infrastructure to deal with this shipping - Product characteristics such as fragility and the trust put in your supply chain to handle delivery with no repercussions. This is similar for high ticketed items and the security required to delivery them. - Don’t forget the dreaded legal issues, legislation, tax implications, trade descriptions and the crossing of international borders, as well as the variations of these within different countries. Make sure the places you intend to use suite both your company, the product or service you are delivering and, most importantly it matches your target markets expectations, no, exceeds your target markets expectations.   Links Diana Wilson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/diana-wilson/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6ueXwEVf8Qek95FLmyjoaQ https://sites.google.com/view/texastasker/home Books:Building a StoryBrand – Miller Donald: https://amzn.to/2Rz8XRq  App:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com Extras: Course Marketplaces:Udemy: https://www.udemy.comSkillShare: https://www.skillshare.com Hosting Platforms:Teachable: https://teachable.comThinkific: https://www.thinkific.comKajabi: https://kajabi.com   Music Featured on this Podcast: Sleepy in the Garden Lobo Loco www.musikbrause.de Creative Commons License
