The Product Boss with Jacqueline Snyder
Jacqueline Snyder
The Product Boss is real business education for people who make and sell physical products.
If you’re working way too hard for the sales you’re getting, you’re in the right place. This show is about building a focused, profitable product business that gets seen and sells consistently, without sacrificing your life to it.
Hosted by Jacqueline Snyder, founder of The Product Boss and one of the country’s most sought-after product experts (featured in Inc., Forbes, NBC News, Yahoo Finance, and more), each episode delivers clear strategy you can actually use. You’ll hear workshop-style teaching and behind-the-scenes advising conversations that help you make better decisions, faster.
Whether you sell on your website, at markets, wholesale (including Faire), in boutiques, or through platforms like Shopify, Etsy, and Amazon, the strategy here works across channels. We talk best sellers and what you’re known for, pricing for profit, visibility beyond social media, conversion, inventory planning, seasonal strategy, and the systems that stop you from doing everything yourself.
You’ll also get Mirror Method and mindset episodes, because your business will always reveal what needs to grow next: confidence, consistency, boundaries, leadership, and the courage to be seen.
Guests have included Jenna Kutcher, Jamie Kern Lima, Jasmine Star, David Meltzer, Suzi Weiss-Fischmann (OPI), Mike Michalowicz (Profit First), Joy Cho, Jaclyn Johnson, Kelly Roach, and more.
New episodes drop weekly on Thursdays.

393. It is Possible to Enjoy Your Holiday Season and Crush it in Business, Here’s How
We are just about 100 days away from the Holiday season, believe it or not! Does that stress you out?We know the Holidays can be busy and hectic, but 100 days is plenty of time to prepare and make sure you’re ready to crush it in your business—all while still being able to enjoy the Holidays yourself. We’re going to help you pre-plan so that you feel as prepared as you can.When it comes to getting ready for the Holidays, there are three main things that are important to prepare for:Time: We all have a limited amount of time every day; you need to be clear about how much time you want to spend on your business, and how much you want to spend with your family. If you don’t prepare for this beforehand, you’re going to find more time than you’d like going right into your business.Scaling: Being busier can mean more work, but not if you scale properly. Going back to the focus on time, you’ll want to figure out how you can get more work done without eating up all of your time.Focus: When you’re clear on what you want to accomplish in your business, it becomes easier to make time for those things that really matter.We go over all of this and more in The Product Boss’ Guide to Getting Holiday-Ready. And best of all: it’s free! If you’re feeling the stress now but you’d rather feel ease when the Holidays arrive, sign up for this exclusive workshop to get prepared for the busiest time of year.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

391. Success Strategies for Going from Side-Hustle to Full-Time Business
So many Product Bosses out there are working a full-time job in addition to running their product-based business—putting in all of the hours. But we don’t think it’s a stretch to say the goal is to take your side-hustle and make it full-time.We’re going to share some of the success strategies you can use right now to go from side-hustle to full-time business that students of our Multi-Stream Machine program have used, as well as examples from our own lives.Our four strategies for going full-time are:Knowing how much you need to make to feel comfortable leaving your job,setting a timeline for hitting your goals,buying back your time with delegation and knowledge acquisition, andhaving a commitment to your goal.When you put all of these into place, what you get is a realistic plan for achieving your goals, the confidence to get it done, and an attitude that will allow you to take massive action towards making it a reality.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

390. How Highlighting Overlooked Holidays Created a Thriving Business with Sarah Gulfraz of Peacock Supplies
For this Small Biz Founders episode, Masterminder Sarah Gulfraz comes to us all the way from across the pond—that’s England, FYI—where she runs Peacock Supplies as founder. Peacock Supplies offers party and gift supplies specializing in multicultural and multi faith celebrations. They sell both to stock international retailers, independent stockers around the world and direct to consumer.It’s pretty common to see Christmas, Easter, and many of the predominant faith-based holidays represented and celebrated throughout the world, but for anyone who falls outside of that religion, they may not see their holidays represented at all—at least not with the same amount of energy and excitement.We talk about:Sarah’s entrepreneurial influences,how her early work experiences shaped her for business, andwhere she gets her drive to always be innovating.Many of the best business ideas come from meeting a need that you have. Sarah wanted to address a problem she noticed when trying to get her kids as invested in her personal holidays as they were with the mainstream ones, and now she provides that to people around the world.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

388. Making Big Business Shifts & Beating the Odds with Danielle Beauregard of Fusion by Design Collars
Danielle Beauregard is the CEO and founder of Fusion by Design Collars which sells, as she jokingly calls it, “bougie collars for dogs.” They craft high-end leather collars and leashes, many of them custom-made, and embellish them with Austrian crystals, leather carvings, and paint.She started her business purely by accident. After leaving her comfy corporate IT job to start a business in dog training, she began using her longtime hobby of leathercrafting to make collars for her dogs, and that quickly spread by word of mouth as she fulfilled individual orders until The Virus That Shall Not Be Named hit and service-based industries dried up. She quickly had to pivot into focusing on those dog collars and leveraging her existing network to make that her full-time job.You’re going to hear Danielle give us the honest details about:How to pivot when life circumstances unexpectedly change,why you shouldn’t do everything in your business even when you can do everything, andbeing open to new business models as your business grows.In just over two years, Danielle has turned something she did on the side into over a quarter million dollars in revenue. She got there through acting fast, using the skills she already had, and hiring—even when she felt like she could do everything herself. And now, with the help of the Mastermind, she’s going to take her business to the next level.Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!
