Susan Bradley, Founder of the Social Sales Girls, is a business expert, business coach, and someone who truly understands the Boutique industry. In this episode, she will be sharing her knowledge and hard-hitting facts about what it takes to run a successful business.

You will learn the importance of building an audience (and how to do so), why you shouldn’t compare your success to the success of others, and how to develop a proof of concept.
