Claire Pelletreau was just starting to grow her side business as a Facebook ad and marketing consultant when her full-time job disappeared. Desperate to land enough clients just to pay the bills, she was disappointed at how difficult it was to find real tactical advice that would help actually her get paid month to month. The Get Paid Podcast is Claire’s attempt to pull back the curtain on the reality of running an online business. All these people pulling in “six figures” - how are they ACTUALLY doing it? What kind of money do they take home after expenses? What are those expenses, anyway? Are they truly “solopreneurs” or are they supported by a team? What does that team do for them? How are they marketing their offerings and growing their lists? How long did it take to get to where they are? You’ll discover how different entrepreneurs get paid and what it costs them to bring in that money.

Studio Neat: Selling Products with Kickstarter (GPP19)

Oct 15, 2015

This online business world is full of coaches and consultants whose expenses are limited to team members, software and maybe some extra coaching. But what do you do if the thing you want to sell requires a mold that costs $10,000 just to get started?


Lots of industrial designers will turn to Kickstarter when they want to validate a product idea before investing tons of money in making it. The Glif, created by Tom and Dan from Studio Neat, was among the earliest campaigns to really blow up in the physical product space, and since then they’ve continued to use the crowd-funding platform to launch new products.
