This episode covers almost everything because our guest Ali Dee dabbles in a little bit of everything. From fashion influencers, Instagram, and working for Mark Cuban to attending the market, the flooding of graphic tees, and dealing with copycats to customer service, pricing, and why brands and boutiques need to work together. Oh, and the fabulousness that is Reba McEntire.
Get your pencil ready whether you’re a brand owner, boutique owner, service provider, or just a fan of Ali Dee.

Concurrently, she became a regular television presence as a TV and arena host for the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks, as part of the broadcast team for Fox Sports’ national coverage of Championship Bull Riding, and for her role on two seasons of the CMT television show Texas Women, in which she had three original songs featured.
Ali Dee also has designed and developed a successful fashion line, Ali Dee Brand, which appears in over 1,000 boutiques and western stores across the country.
