Andrea explains how she fell into the food industry and developed her skills in baking and running a business. She talks about the importance of organization and efficiency in mass production and shares valuable insights from her nine years as a culinary salesperson. QUOTES“One of the biggest learnings is just ensuring that you can sell your product for what will be meaningful to you from the amount of work you're putting into it, as well as making sure that it covers your cost of goods and gives you some money in the end as well.” -Andrea Todd [08:34]“I think a lot of sales are built around how you are at networking and relationship building. When you come from somewhere where you know everyone, I would say it sets you up to know how important a network is. My parents were entrepreneurs, so you realize how much those relationships matter. That's a big part of how the sales side of it became successful is just through the relationship building side of it.” -Andrea Todd [16:48]TIMESTAMPS05:17 Baking and the Food Network09:38 Transitioning from the Baking Industry to Food Manufacturing17:28 Product Creation and Collaboration in Manufacturing35:29 The Benefits of Social Media for Restaurants and Operators 37:22 Andrea's Advice for Entering the Manufacturing and Sales IndustryRESOURCESPortillo SalesCONTACT Nick: nick.portillo@portillosales.comAndrea: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreatodd1/

Have you ever wondered how to approach product creation? In this episode, you'll hear how my guest Rachael went from idea all the way to finished product and promotion. And there's so much to learn from her story. We all know how much strength and https://giftbizunwrapped.com/episodes/cakeandwhiskey (power women possess). It's all around us yet we often diminish that trait when it comes to ourselves. Rachael is on a mission to change that through the creation of a product that reinforces, for each of us, that we too have these traits and can do great things within our world. It's called 'Messages From Her' and you'll hear what it is and the full product creation story from initial https://giftbizunwrapped.com/episodes/blingzy (idea through development) and promotion to the upcoming event of being able to see it in real life. Rachael is a Colorado-based writer, designer, and entrepreneur who holds a BA in Communication Design and Ethical Business. She has used these skills to help solo entrepreneurs to Fortune 500 companies develop ethical business strategies, improve design and presentation, and increase clarity, market placement, & profits. She is currently launching her first book and card deck called, Messages From Her. A Product Creation Story You'll Be Inspired By There are so many doubts that you can have in the creative process. Just https://giftbizunwrapped.com/episodes/ideas-for-creative-business (stay true to your creativity). Be inspired and empowered by learning about the lives of women who made a difference in the world. Role models are really powerful. Looking up to people who we admire and learning from them is so healthy Celebrate the women in your life for what they've done because they're also showing you what's really possible. Come up with ideas and bring them to life. Bring that creative project into the world. If you plan to work with a factory overseas for product development, consistency of communication is very important. Consider the following: How are they communicating with you? Do they respond within a reasonable amount of time? Are they excited about the work? Work with people who have amazing https://giftbizunwrapped.com/episodes/how-is-your-customer-service (customer service) and are excited to make the product with you. Find a factory that feels like they're partnering with you in moving your project forward. Test projects are a great idea to help you evaluate if it's a fit to hire people to work with you.
In this episode, we tackle a listener question: "How do you choose products ethically when starting a business?" It's tough being unique in 2022. It can seem as though every idea is already taken, but taking the unethical route of copying others is rarely going to lead to success. Instead, with a little creativity and research, you can come up with your own designs and ideas that will help you create your own space in the marketplace. In this episode, we talk about how we each did this with our own businesses and ways you can do the same.
