    139: {Interview} The Importance of Swag in Branding with Amanda Hofman

    Text me! In today's episode, Amanda Hofman shares her entrepreneurial journey, discussing her experiences in running businesses, the importance of hustle, learning from mistakes, and the role of swag in branding. She emphasizes the need for entrepreneurs to take ownership of their work and the significance of building relationships through quality merchandise. Takeaways Amanda's journey began with Urban Girl Squad, proving her entrepreneurial spirit. Hustle is essential for success in any business venture. Entrepreneurship is not for everyone; it requires a willingness to face challenges. Learning from mistakes is crucial; ignoring red flags can lead to bad decisions. Quality swag can enhance brand relationships and should not be treated as mere promotional items. Companies often print swag inefficiently, leading to low-quality items. Swag should be seen as a marketing tool, not just a giveaway. Opting for print on demand can solve many swag-related issues. Building relationships through swag is key to effective branding. Entrepreneurs have the power to say no to bad partnerships.
