When I started Milk Diva, almost three years ago, I was almost paralyzed by fear and had no idea where I should focus my resources. My first thought was to start working on a websiteâŠbut then I remembered after helping my husband with his real estate business, having a website wasn't going to be enough in a sea đ of other websitesâŠ.
But I couldn't overcome the thought of spending money on branding and marketing if I wasn't đŻ sure I would get my money đ° backâŠ. then God reminded me to have faith. He clearly put this desire on my heart and I knew He had a wonderful plan.
I also knew If I wanted to have a REAL, BIG GIRL BUSINESS, I was gonna have to start treating it as such.
So while things were slow starting off, I spent time working with the Branding Boss Lady, Lynne Braggs of Braggology Marketing.
Lynne is a graduate of Howard University, and has an MBA from University of Texas Austin. She has held positions at Artisan Entertainment, New Line Cinema, Sony and E! At Artisan Entertainment (now known as Lions Gate) she developed and executed a home entertainment marketing plan for their most successful release The Blair Witch Project, just to name one of her many accomplishments.
Fast forward about three years and Lynne has helped turn my idea for a solo lactation private practice into a booming, multi-provider, award-winning, super fast growing, profitable business.
So as a special treat to all my #bossladies, Lynne has given us some of her precious đ time and is sharing some of her insider tips to help you figure out where to focus your resources when starting or growing a business.
