How I Started My Own Bag Company

The Product Sessions

Do you have that entrepreneurial spirit but can't figure out how to turn it into an actual product-based business? It can be overwhelming and confusing to decide which idea to move forward with and how to actually have your product ideas made. On today's episode, I share my journey from a perpetual creator and business dreamer into real life CEO and business owner. I share the step by step of how I started my own company, Bodomint, where I design and sell bags.
I walk through these different phases of my process:
- Early Days
- My Pivotal Moment
- That Entrepreneurial Drive
- Finally… The Perfect Idea
- How Do I Do This?
- The Product Development Process
- Crowd Funding
- Product Validation
- Adding New Products
- Sales and Marketing
