“My #1 Secret to Productivity: Batching” by Ali Brown

June 5, 2014

One of the most exciting parts of starting and growing a business for most of us is the freedom that comes with being an entrepreneur. No one else dictating our schedule, how we work, or even what we’re working on. I remember those first days after I walked out of my last real job in NYC, practically singing “Born Free”!

But then the following week, I was humming a different tune… something like “Freak Out”… I realized I had jumped from a predictable pool into a vast ocean of freedom, and I had no idea how to structure my time.

Now THAT's what I'm talking about…

As you’ve been witnessing, what “success” means to me has changed a lot in the past few years.

I like to describe it as finally finding my “business bliss.” And the more women I talk to, the more I realize this is really our ongoing goal.

Yes, we want to make more money and have a successful venture. And it’s fun to have accolades and build something powerful. But it’s the vehicle to our bliss.

Imagine that you have a magic fashion fairy who sends you a mysterious box in the mail. You open it, and there are five items of clothing specifically chosen for you: your perfect cut, your favorite colors, your best styles, and it all fits like a charm. Well, your magic fashion fairy is here. It’s called Stitch Fix, and its creator is Katrina Lake. She’s reinventing the way we shop for fashion online, and tells her story on this episode of Glambition Radio.
I received my first Stitch Fix just a few weeks ago, and I tell you I was skeptical as I opened the box.

JJ Ramberg, Host of MSNBC’s “Your Business”, this week on Glambition Radio with Ali Brown

JJ Ramberg is the host of MSNBC’s “Your Business”, the only TV show dedicated to issues affecting small business owners. She’s also the author of the recent bestseller It’s Your Business: 183 Essential Tips that Will Transform Your Small Business.

And, she’s a passionate entrepreneur. You’ll hear all about the company she co-founded with her brother, on this episode of Glambition Radio.

JJ comes from a long line of successful entrepreneurs. Both of her grandfathers, her mom, her dad, and her brother are all entrepreneurs! I love the story she tells about her mother… a stay-at-home mom with no business experience, who launched her first company when she was in her late 40’s.

“Why You Should Not Wait for a Clear Vision Before You Move Forward” by Ali Brown

May 22, 2014

Whenever I’m speaking to entrepreneurs—whether it’s around the country or around the world—I’m always asked to share my now famous “ATM Story”. It’s one I kept close to the vest for years, because I was too embarrassed to reveal it. But today, I know it’s important to share. And why.

You see, we always look at successful people and think their rise to the top must have happened overnight. They must have had the big vision, the perfect plan, and lined-up circumstances. But that is NEVER the truth!

I quit my last job in 1999 and launched my first little venture offering business-writing services in New York City.
