In this episode we cover:
  • How the idea for starting Daisy & Hen came to life.
  • Potential things to look for that may provide a challenge in your business, particularly freight for a product based business.
  • Why being in a regional town can provide great advantages to your business including strong collaborations and networking with other small businesses.
  • How backing yourself and your business can lead to great rewards and the opportunity to grow your business and open more stores.
  • The opportunity to create a business where employing staff who are mothers allows you to lead by example and offer employment conditions you wish you had been offered.
  • Why Gina thinks you should ‘just start’ (but does believe you should have a plan).
