    Do my first episodes still hold up?

    When I reflect on all the exciting things happening with the podcast, not only am I incredibly grateful, but it’s also really fun to look back at how it all started. So in this episode, I’m re-listening to my first handful of episodes and asking myself, “Do they still hold up?!” I thought before listening that I had a pretty good idea of what I said in these early episodes, but I actually kind of surprised myself sometimes! Listen in as I share the details on what has stood the test of time… and what I have a new way of thinking about. Here’s a preview: Stood the test of time: 3 important things for your Instagram Email signature Directing people to a contact form on your website Getting a Google Business Profile Instagram caption ideas & social media schedulers Automation ideas & endorsement for 17hats CRM Profit First cash flow system I have a new way of thinking about: Some of the resources I created and mentioned in the early episodes Business email accounts Importance of styled shoots Watermarking photos   I also share my episode plan for the year, in case you’re curious!

    Trends in the United Kingdom | Angharad of Angharad’s Party Art

    In our final curated interview from TUFTEX, I made a new friend in Angharad (AKA Annie) of Angharad’s Party Art in the UK. I loved hearing about the similarities and differences we experience across the world!  She tells us how when she started her business, she faced a very familiar issue that we do in the states - childcare. She continues to adapt her business based on her family needs today, too, and I really appreciated her openness on this topic.  After that, we hear about her unique style, plus new types of events and trends she’s seeing… and what’s coming back into style! Then of course we chat about her time at the TUFTEX Experience in 2024, and how she’ll be a part of it again this year. What a fun conversation this was, and I’m so happy to have made a new friend. Then in the UGlu Hotline, hear a tip for marketing while participating in a parade.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: Presenting sponsor: 17hats (get 50% off your 1st year)  Curated Month by: TUFTEX | TUFTEX Experience Tickets  Angharad’s Party Art  Other sponsors & resources: Havin' A Party Wholesale (save 5% with code BRIGHT) Balloon Suite  2025 Bright Balloon Business Planner  UGlu by Pro Tapes (save 5% at Havin’ A Party with code BRIGHT)  Call into the UGlu Hotline to ask a question or leave advice!

    Main street boutique | Dolly & Eddie of Delloons

    In another episode curated by TUFTEX, I’m chatting with Dolly & Eddie of Delloons again! Since our last conversation with them, they’ve had another baby and moved into a boutique retail space… so needless to say, there’s a lot to catch up on and I appreciated their honesty and openness. And don’t miss a bit of behind the scenes info from them about the TUFTEX Experience! We talk about why they decided to move into the boutique, how it happened so quickly and what financial impacts they considered in the process. I always have a ton of questions about retail, so I also ask about taking payments, walk-in traffic and what exactly they plan to sell there. They gave us the scoop on those things, but also insurance, utilities and profit margins. Then we dive into what it’s like to be a part of the TUFTEX Color Crew, and hear more about how they’ll be involved in the TUFTEX Experience this year. It was another fun conversation with these two! And in the UGlu Hotline, hear a really cool resource for getting started with implementing Profit First methods.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: Presenting sponsor: 17hats (get 50% off your 1st year)  Curated Month by: TUFTEX | TUFTEX Experience Tickets  @delloons  Other sponsors & resources: Havin' A Party Wholesale (save 5% with code BRIGHT) Balloon Suite  2025 Bright Balloon Business Planner  UGlu by Pro Tapes (save 5% at Havin’ A Party with code BRIGHT)  Call into the UGlu Hotline to ask a question or leave advice!

    Large installs and lots of events | Tiffany of Confetti Castle

    In another episode curated by TUFTEX, I’m chatting with Tiffany of Confetti Castle about the thrill and challenges of being tasked with large installations for large events. We talk about getting the jobs, staffing them, troubleshooting, logistics and more. She also tells us about how she’s planning the decor for the TUFTEX Experience and how YOU can be a part of it! More key points of our conversation included building relationships, building your mindset so that you don’t get overwhelmed by big jobs and what kinds of actual items can be sold to make up a $10,000 job, for example. Speaking of pricing, I also ask Tiffany about her proposal process. Hear how she takes the offensive in terms of decor choices, plus some great tips for managing logistics and properly staffing events when there are multiple going on at the same time. We closed up the conversation by talking about the TUFTEX Experience, and I got even more excited to go than I already was! Hear what kinds of very cool things happen there, her hint at this year’s theme, which instructors she can’t wait to hear from and her biggest tips for maximizing your experience! Then in the UGlu Hotline, hear about a way to decrease the risk of damage to your marquees.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: Presenting sponsor: 17hats (get 50% off your 1st year)  Curated Month by: TUFTEX | TUFTEX Experience Tickets  Related episode: 267.
