Maggie Partin joins me again to talk about her new company and what has changed in her professional life since you heard her in the first episode of the podcast. Maggie's new company is called The Seventh Sense and is a loungewear line intended to support strong emotional and mental health. Maggie discusses what inspired the clothing line and details what the objective of it is, and she also shares what developments she hopes the loungewear line will see over the next five years.
In addition, Maggie offers some helpful advice to anyone who might want to walk a similar path as hers. She clarifies that in order to start an online retail company, you need five tools: (1) an LLC (limited liability company), (2) a professional email address, (3) a Shopify account, (4) a graphic designer if you don't do your designs yourself, and lastly, (5) merchandise and a manufacturer to make your merchandise if you don't do that yourself. She also shares with us a few fun facts about herself, such as what her first major job was and how she felt about it (indirectly providing some invaluable insight into what makes an effective leader and/or supervisor), what sources of support and mentorship have benefitted her over her lifetime and what she learned from those sources, and even how she feels about personal ads!
It was so much fun having Maggie on the podcast again to share updates on how her professional life has been progressing and to talk about The Seventh Sense, and I look forward to talking to her again in the future! As always, I hope that you will continue to tune in to the Freed Stories podcast as guests share their stories of entrepreneurship – their successes, their failures, their goals, their hopes, and so on.
