As creators and business owners, we all aspire to create amazing, beautiful things – products that stem from our minds and take shape in reality. But one piece of feedback we've consistently received from our Multi-Stream Machine students is that despite having incredible products, the biggest hurdle is visibility. Nobody knows that these amazing products exist! Sounds familiar? Then this episode is definitely for you.We often think, oh, building a website or getting on Instagram is the solution, and we'll be noticed. But the truth is, it's much more than that. We fall into the trap of thinking that if we build it, they will come. But unfortunately, they won't, simply because they don't know where to go.Perhaps, like many others, you've built a website, you're active on social media, you've set up an Etsy shop, or you're selling on a platform like Fair. But the question remains, how will your potential customers know you exist?We've been emphasizing this for years now - it's crucial to diversify where you show up and make sure to show up where your customers are. Because it's not just about building it and hoping they will come. The key is to ensure they know where to go.Resources:Want a guide to over 308 business tools and resources to help you effectively run your product-based business?

Summer months can feel a bit sluggish for all of us in retail. With June and July typically noted as slow seasons, you might be feeling the strain of this period we commonly refer to as the "J months". We're here to let you know - it's not just you, it's not your business, it's a widespread experience.Over the years, we've observed some shifts in consumer spending habits. Particularly in January, thanks to an increased focus on self-care and wellness, retail experiences an uplift, making it a bit of an anomaly in the J-month trend. This post-holiday period, transitioning from the Holiday to the Halo season, sees a shift from gift buying to self-purchases, spurred on by the fervor of New Year's resolutions.But what about the summer months? How do you navigate the slow, "slumpy" period of June and July? We're here to discuss exactly that. We'll help you steer clear of panic and self-doubt, and instead focus on what really matters. During these slower months, it's the perfect time to shift your perspective and focus on working ON your business, rather than simply working IN it.Join us as we debunk the myths of the J-month slump, and empower you with strategies to utilize this time effectively. Remember, your business isn't broken - it's just time to approach things differently. We're here to guide you through it.Resources:Want a guide to over 308 business tools and resources to help you effectively run your product-based business?

Welcome to another episode of Just Jacq, Product Bosses! We hope you're making the most of your summer. Today, we're taking a different turn. We usually discuss transitioning from your full-time job to becoming a full-time product boss. But, let's flip the script today and talk about how you can maintain your full-time job while growing your product-based business.This may seem challenging because, as product bosses, we crave control over our time and freedom in our creativity. Often, we feel shackled by our '9 to 5' jobs and the dream is to break free. But, there's another perspective worth considering.A day job offers financial stability, pays for essentials such as medical insurance, and contributes to retirement plans. It's also the perfect opportunity to validate your business idea. So, instead of constantly thinking about how to escape your full-time job, can we shift our mindset? Let's explore how you can use the safety net of your full-time job to test, validate, and grow your business idea.Join us as we delve into three strategies that will help you maintain your full-time job while growing your product-based business.Resources:Want a guide to over 308 business tools and resources to help you effectively run your product-based business?

Welcome back to another “Just Jacq” episode of The Product Boss Podcast! We're thrilled to have you here with us today. We've been receiving some incredible "ask us anything" questions, and we can't wait to dive into them and share our insights with all of you.The first question we'll be addressing is: "How do you effectively add time into pricing? How do I pay myself?" It's an important aspect of running a business, and we understand the challenges it can present. We'll explore different strategies and approaches to help you determine how to appropriately account for your time and ensure you're paying yourself what you deserve.The second question we'll be discussing is: "What are your thoughts about staying a small business on purpose? What if your business is just a job you created for yourself? Is there a number attached to it?" These questions touch on the idea of intentionally choosing to remain a small business and finding fulfillment in that choice. We'll delve into the concept of purposefully embracing the size and scope of your business and how you can measure success beyond just financial metrics.Remember, if you want to ask us anything or have your questions answered on the show, make sure to follow us @TheProductBoss or @thejacquelinesnyder.

Are you a creator who's constantly innovating and producing? We totally understand, and guess what? We're the same way! Today, we're diving into a topic that resonates with many of our listeners – being a creative entrepreneur.We often encounter the belief that constant creation equals being a true artist, but today, we're debunking that myth. By sharing the story of one of our successful Masterminders – a multi-million dollar business owner and artist – we will highlight the importance of constraint in creation. This creative powerhouse, who aspires to be a household name, battles with the idea of constantly having to create new things because... well, she's a creative, right?In reality, the real key to successful entrepreneurship and artistry is the opposite: thoughtful constraint. Having the ability to narrow your focus, cut through the clutter, and concentrate on what truly matters is a sign of mature entrepreneurship and artistry.Let's get to the heart of the matter. How can you balance your creative impulses with the practical demands of running a successful business? Is it possible to feel fulfilled as an artist while still achieving your business goals? Trust us, it's not only possible – it's the pathway to greater success.So, whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned entrepreneur, join us today as we help you navigate the sometimes chaotic, always exciting world of creativity and business. Let's debunk some myths, focus your creative energy, and steer your business towards greater heights.Resources:Want a guide to over 308 business tools and resources to help you effectively run your product-based business?

We’re all aware just how hard it is to pinpoint where to focus your energy when it comes to online marketing and social media. Jereshia Hawk shares some incredible but practical tips for leveraging the tools you already have and using your own story to create valuable content so you can grow your business organically—without all the bells and whistles! In this podcast episode, we discuss: How Jereshia transitioned from the corporate world to the coaching world Why Jereshia believes it’s important to listen and be open to new ideas How Jereshia uses Facebook and Facebook Live to build her business The power of using videos with clear titles and calls to action that communicate value How to address common struggles of Facebook groups The value of active listening and speaking the language of your potential clients Jereshia’s approach for Instagram Stories and creating content based on her journey The importance of letting go of comparison and unfollowing or blocking negativity Memorable Quotes: “I think it’s important that women not only have a seat at the table, but that they have a voice once they get there.” “Even it’s a phenomenal idea, if you can’t convert it to a legit business opportunity with a revenue stream and potential to earn money, it’s just a great idea.” You’re not selling to yourself. You’re selling to your client. “You might have a great service or great product but if you’re not speaking the language of your people, they may not understand how you can help them.” “Your content should be a documentation of your journey; it should include your process, your failures and your struggles.” Meet Jereshia: Jereshia Hawk went from leading $400 Million pipeline projects as an engineer to doubling her corporate salary and quitting her job within the first year of starting her online business.
