In today's episode of Content Magic I'm joined by Emily McDonald, a founder coach and mentor who helps female entrepreneurs build sustainable, successful businesses.
In our chat, Emily digs into why so many new female founders struggle to make money, and how focusing on fads instead of foundations holds them back. She shares her own entrepreneurial journey, from launching a dress rental company out of her living room to now running multiple ventures. We also discuss the hot topic of scaling - what it really means, when to do it, and why it's not the right path for everyone.
Emily drops so many insights about truly understanding your ideal customer, creating offers that resonate, and doing the deep work needed to sell successfully, even without a huge audience.
Emily has tons of valuable insight to share so don't miss this one!
