Welcome to Dear Founder, the podcast that pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build and grow a successful business.

No gatekeeping, no fluff, just real talk.

I'm your host, Lindsay Pinchot, award-winning entrepreneur, founder, and proud member of the 1% of female founders who've led

before selling it and learned more from the mistakes than from the wins. What started as a podcast

here has grown into a movement. Supporting female entrepreneurs like you through not only this show, but also on our

social media, at our live events, and in our online community, The Deere Founder Forum.

Each week, I sit down with some of the most influential female founders of our time

Because here, there's no gatekeeping, just actionable advice, honest conversations,

and a whole lot of inspiration.

So grab your coffee or your wine or whatever it is that you're drinking, hit play,

and let's build something amazing together.

But in a minute, you're going to hear me dive a little bit deeper into

marketing made simple, powered by my sweet method and how can you, how you can use it today.

This is how I built and grew and bootstrapped my first company and now my second with basic
