Products X People Mary Sue

Listen, I know how emotional it can be to buy for your boutique or to create a product YOU love, but it doesn't land with your customers.

Rather than pushing a boulder up the hill, its important to take the emotional response out when looking at numbers- it doesn't make sense to take up floor or digital space if its not bringing in that $$$$.

The Best Seller Secrets Challenge is awesome for both brands AND boutiques, because it shows you why and how leaning into the things that are already proven -with dollars- are the way to creating more sales and more success. 

Having taken The Product Boss' Multi-Stream Machine course myself, I can say with certainty that their material is inspirational and actionable- we need both, right?

The FREEEE 5 day challenge kicks off on February 14th...think of it as a Valentine's Day gift to yourself and your business!

Hope to see you inside the group!

This past week I returned from a road trip to Austin Texas to make a special delivery to my brother and SIL- a dog!
Since I do a lot of wholesale business to Texas, I knew that I wanted to create a product inspired by Texas for all of my customers there (
shout out to you!) but I just didn't have the time or mental space to make it happen.
Until I spent 40 hours in a car...

Its amazing what a road trip can do for ideas and mental space!

In this episode I walk through the exact process of coming up with an idea, fleshing it out, mocking it up and finally releasing it.
If you're a product maker who wants to emotionally and energetically connect with your DREAM customers and learn to create products with them in mind, you're in luck!

My high touch group program kicks off October 1st and is a 6 week program that digs into  meditation to connect with your dream customer, how to take that information and turn it into a product/ label/ package that they say "OH HELL YEAH!" to over and over, and just how to establish your product as a BRAND vs being just a maker.

For more info, send me a DM on Instagram @uplevelrebel or @dejavufoundry!

When you're growing your brand, whether that is as a boutique, a product, a subscription box...its easy to feel discouraged by larger, more established players who seem to have it all dialed in.

Well, this episode is proof that a lot happens BTS that is not documented, and as someone who values transparency and aligned action, I wanted to give the WHY behind our own shift and allow you to see that pivoting is part of the process.

Being that Mercury Retrograde is upon us, this is a great time to slow down and think about what we want. 

Can we allow it to happen? 

To evolve on its own?

To leap when we feel its time?

I say, YES.

Go with the flow and pivot with ease!

Ready to start your week with some major inspiration?

Inspiration that can lead to MORE PROFIT?

Ummm....yes please!


What if you had the ability to sell a product that cost you dollars, yet allowed you a 3, 5, 7X mark up (or more)?

I'm pretty sure you'd say

"MARY STOP IT RIGHT HECKIN NOW AND SHOW ME IT"

Well, I'd love to do just that but there's one thing...



YOU haven't made it yet.

That's right.

YOU have the unique power to develop, create and sell a product that your customers will love.



In this episode, I talk about how creating your own line of physical products is the perfect way for boutique owners, salons, subscription boxes, and even coaches to add more profit and better margins to their assortment.



Its a great way to add increased perceived value items, connect with your customers and sell through storytelling.



Let's dig in!

As a former award-winning boutique owner, I am sharing my unique perspective as both a wholesale product brand AND retailer plus the #1 thing I see most brands and makers overlooking when starting their wholesale journey.

Hint- its proobably *not* what you think.

And, for those of you who already have a viable product with profitable wholesale margins who are looking to uplevel their appeal to retailers before the holiday rush, I am opening a few highly limited spots for a 1:1 coaching experience.

In all of my 20 years of business, I went through everything under the sun to help grow it.
Even when I followed something someone else was doing, I never seemed to get the same results.
Why?!
Isn't that the way to do it? To follow the footsteps of someone who is successful in our field?
Well, yes and no.
We all have our own path and its up to us to determine what works, when, why and how.
One of the things that has worked really well for me is meditation, mindset and journaling with the moon cycles.
Its something I look forward to, can easily do when/ how/ where I want and gives me the clarity I need to move forward quickly, easily and without second guessing.
It has allowed me to trust my gut and intuition while allowing it to feel easy and doable.
So, I invite you to give it a try, too!
