I've been having a lot of conversations lately about Faire. Some of you love the platform. Some of you hate it. And a lot of you are somewhere in the middle, trying to figure out your next move. In this episode, I’m walking you through what Faire does well, the two very different ways brands use the platform, and the four things our Paper Camp alumni do to keep more of their money in their pockets.

When you're deciding which products to add to your line, you probably think about sales data first. But that's only part of the story.

Amita Nair has built Amicreative into a cohesive, intentional brand by making product decisions from four angles: financial performance, design aesthetic, what customers actually want, and whether the product fits her brand voice.

This week’s podcast episode features  someone I've admired for a long time— artist, author, illustrator, and creative entrepreneur Lisa Congdon. Lisa has been building businesses around her art for nearly 20 years, and in this conversation we talk about something that I think a lot of established brand owners will relate to, and that's what happens when you've built a successful business but you realize it's no longer the business you want to run.
