163 - Branding is Remembering - with Stacy Madison of Stacy’s Pita Chips
Stacy Madison grew her "accidental business", Stacy's Pita Chips, from $19,000 in annual sales to $65 million before being purchased by PepsiCo. She did it without an "exit strategy", just a customer-first strategy, and she is so very generous with sharing her story, experience and expertise.
I met Stacy when selected as one of 4 inaugural Canadian winners of the "Stacy's Rise Project". She continues to give back through this project, and has not surprisingly launched 2 new businesses since selling Stacy's. This is a MUST LISTEN for any aspiring or seasoned entrepreneur!

Customer Reviews
How to get a deal on dragons den
Elaine responded to my inquiry about dragons den and directed me to her podcast where she went through her experience on dragons den. Thank you for recording that podcast and responding to my email. The podcast was full of great information. Thank you!!
Intensely Practical Advice Especially for New Entrepreneurs
Elaine and her guest provide the most practical advice in many areas including parenting, household management and business. I am especially impressed with the advice for entrepreneurs. Almost every time I hear one of these episodes I end up implementing a new system, technique or hack that assists me in being a more effective entrepreneur and businessman.
The other great thing is how timely her topics are. It is like she reads my mind and talks about the exact problem I am wrestling with!
Also, I feel inspired hearing these episodes because they are always so positive and Elaine breaks it down into simple and memorable points. I look forward to each episode and sometimes listen a few times.
thanks Elaine for continuing to do this podcast. I appreciate you.
Excellent content!
If you’re a fan of Tim Ferriss you’ll enjoy this podcast as well.
