Episode 61 – Tradeshows with Katie Hunt


Hey Rebels!  We’ve brought back Katie Hunt to chat all about tradeshows! If you have started wholesale, you may be wondering if a tradeshow is for you. We were super excited to bring Katie back to give us all the details. Be sure to check out Paper Camp which we highly recommend if you are considering exhibiting at a tradeshow.

Katie Hunt is the founder of Tradeshow Bootcamp, a business strategist, and mentor to creative entrepreneurs. She is a firm believer in professional development, surrounding yourself with community and pushing ‘go’ even when you might not feel 100% ready.

Katie has taught classes for CreativeLive, The Savvy Experience, Seanwes Conference, Be Sage Conference, Unique Camp, and Makers Nation. She frequently speaks about strategies for creating a product line, selling wholesale, business planning and the importance of community for entrepreneurs.

Katie earned a dual MBA in marketing and finance from Loyola Marymount University and has spent the last 16 years coaching large corporations and entrepreneurs on marketing and business development strategies.

Her strengths lie in connecting people and bringing ideas to life – brainstorming, making a plan and executing. Katie has a passion for creating, a mind for business and a strong desire to help others succeed.

Episode 60 – Shop Talk with Jordandene


Hey Rebels!  

Today we totally geeked out with Jordan Ellis from Jordandené.  Jordandené is a Brooklyn-based, woman-owned, small business. Their casually geeky apparel and home goods are subtle enough to actually be used in everyday life. Their design team uses traditional ink and brush techniques to create unique, hand-lettered designs. They choose messages that both strike a chord with hardcore fans and promote positive messages to everyone who sees them.

This episode was fun and inspiring!  We chat about finding your niche,, Comic Con, and working with her equally creative husband.  This is a must listen!
