Tamara Lohan, founder of travel site “Mr & Mrs Smith” on Glambition Radio with Ali Brown

Tamara Lohan on Glambition Radio with Ali BrownA disastrous romantic weekend getaway turned Tamara Lohan and her husband, James, into boutique hotel experts with a vengeance. They decided to package their knowledge into a guide, then a business. Today, the UK-based company books over $70 Million in accommodations a year via their site MrAndMrsSmith.com, making them one of the luxury travel industry’s top global brands.

But most of all, you’ll love Tamara’s spirit and how she’s done all this while going from London party girl to a high achieving entrepreneur mom.

On this week’s episode of Glambition Radio, Tamara reveals why she never wanted to be an entrepreneur, explains what’s behind her company’s name (it has nothing to do with Brad and Angelina!), and tells us how the hell she did this while raising two kids. (And doing it sanely. Well, there was that time she locked them all in the car while launching her new website – story revealed on the show.)

james-tamara-lohan_mr-mrs-smith_2015_picture-credit-shot-at-ham-yard-hotel-7Before they became Mr & Mrs Smith, Tamara and James worked day jobs in London and looked forward to luxurious weekend breaks from the city. But, the choices were slim and hard to find, so the couple decided to write their own boutique hotel guidebooks.

Publishers turned them down, so Tamara and James borrowed money – put everything they had on the line – and self-published. The gamble paid off, and they sold 10,000 copies of their guidebooks within six weeks. A few years later, they launched MrAndMrsSmith.com and now have 120 staff members in their offices in London, Los Angeles, Singapore, and New York.
