In this episode, we have invited Shan Berries. Shan is a former morning show radio host who started Shades by Shan Cosmetics three years ago. Today, her makeup can be found in stores across the West Coast and in Ipsy bags across the nation. She also is a new mom. And she has an amazing nonprofit organization. Today, Shan will help you manage and scale your business and she shares the importance of recognizing the people you are with along the way.
Key Takeaways from my chat Shan:
How Shan makes an impact with her work: Shan was raised by a single mother and watched how hard she struggled juggling everything, so she wanted to help other single mothers like her own mother. Her nonprofit organization, The Mamaberries Nonprofit Foundation helps single parents in need. When a client purchases Shades by Shan Cosmetics, a portion of their proceeds goes to help single parents in need.
Resource recommendation: Shan gets inspiration from Gary Vaynerchuk. He gives great entrepreneurial advice that will inspire you and make you want to work hard.
Shan’s tips to help you scale your business:
- Have a vision that’s bigger than you – Shan formed a non-profit that supports single moms and people became more connected with her brand because of her work in the non-profit.
- Hire people who are strong at what you’re not – We can’t do everything. So seek people who can tackle things that you are not the strongest so that you can save your energy for what you are strong in.
- Make more mistakes – The quicker you make mistakes you can learn how to navigate faster. Understand mistakes are part of the business growth journey.
- Ask for help. People are more likely to support you when they know how they can help.
