Some of the things we talked about when it comes to launching physical products:
-  Fear of judgement when you’re just starting out – not knowing what a blog and social media account would become and not wanting to be seen by friends and family. But realising it was easier once everyone knew! 
-  Running a lean, flexible business that suits your lifestyle. Do you need an office or can you work from home? Productivity and working when it suits you, rather than a fixed 9-5 with allocated holiday. 
-  Building a brand and having values, a tone and an ethos that runs through everything you create – content or products. And also identifying what your brand is not. 
-  Finding your confidence in your own brand voice and not getting distracted by what other people are doing. 
-  The advantage of being known for one thing and becoming an expert at your specific area. 
-  Working with people that respect you and support you, rather than undermining you. Trusting your gut when it comes to bringing new people on-board. 
-  Tapping into networks so you don’t feel alone. The ladies recommend She Can She Did. 
-  Being open to feedback and doing market research – you can’t hide from what people think! Address concerns and issues to grow your product or service.
