cookied0e ,

Great small biz advice!

I love these gals so much! They provide soooo much helpful info for aspiring and current small business owners. The sticker shop owner community can be very secretive and gatekeep-y, but these ladies don’t hold any secrets back!

So helpful for any small business owner!

This podcast is SO helpful for any small business owner! Although it’s geared towards aspiring sticker shop owners, you definitely don’t need to be one to glean wisdom from it. Especially if you run an e-commerce business, you will take away so many good nuggets!
