Summary

I love digital products, but creating a physical product line was always a huge dream of mine and it’s been such an amazing experience to create our luxury stationery line, Carrie & Co.

In this episode I’m joined by my brother James and we’re sharing all about how we built out this vision from an idea I had and the biggest lessons we’ve learned over the past few years.

It’s not all good news though… recently our warehouse where we keep 99% of our inventory burnt down! We lost £100,000 of inventory in 5 minutes!

We talk all about it in this episode and how we’re planning to rebuild it all bigger and better than before!

Building a luxury stationery line was a huge goal of mine - if there’s a huge goal you’d love to achieve but you’re not sure how to make it happen, I’m hosting a free training where I’ll share exactly what you need to do to create so much success! (no matter what your goal is!)

It’s called the She Means Business Workshop - It’s taking place this Thursday, April 7th at 12pm PT / 3pm ET / 8pm UK and I’ve got so much powerful stuff to share with you - it’s going to be amazing!
