49 | Growing a Six-Figure Business on Multiple Handmade Selling Platforms with Ashley Raetz

My guest today, Ashley Raetz, shares so many tips and tricks for running a successful business that you’ll want to listen twice! After asking for a pay raise and hearing the word “no”, Ashley decided she wasn’t going to let anyone else determine her value or her paycheck. She started RiOak designs at her kitchen table in small-town Missouri and after continuing to show up day after day, saw her business take-off and never looked back!

After attaining huge success on multiple selling platforms, Ashley now teaches other entrepreneurs how to do what she did with her company, Creative Strategies. Ashley was so much fun to talk to and I highly recommend you listen in for her favorite strategies to seriously grow your business!

In this episode, we cover:

– Why relationships are KEY to a successful business

– Why you don’t need all the bells and whistles to be successful

– Tips to manage that elusive work-life balance

– When to consider hiring another employee
