    279. Entrepreneur reality show | Jenn of Fun By The Yard
    Nov 19 2024
    In this episode, Jenn takes us through the journey she’s had in her business… from yard cards only to being convinced to take on balloon jobs for corporate clients to now handling her own team in a warehouse she still has room to grow into. She’s done some huge things in the past year, including being on a reality show for entrepreneurs, hosting The Big Balloon Build and helping at the DNC balloon drop! Hear about the selection process for the show, lessons learned and challenges that were part of it. Then, learn more about the events that transpired during her build and how she had to take a major pivot in order to make it a success. We also chat about how she promotes her business to her local university, Notre Dame. She shares a couple of nuggets about how to make sure all of the different departments and visiting teams know about her services, which has her there nearly every week! Then in the UGlu Hotline, hear a tip for applying vinyl to jumbo balloons.

    277. Ready-made templates | Emily of 17hats
    Nov 12 2024

    In this second curated episode by Let Nicole Help, we’re hearing from Emily of 17hats who is in charge of all things Marketplace. If you’re not familiar, it’s a place where 17hats users can buy and try all sorts of templates for their account!

    Emily tells us more about the kinds of templates available and how they can help both new and long-time users. We go on to talk more about the very specific balloon-related templates ready for purchase, how installation of the templates actually works and how templates and template sellers are vetted.

    I even found myself making a list of items that I wanted to search for while Emily and I were talking! Then lastly, I also loved hearing that nearly every 17hats employee is (or was) a small business owner themselves. I think it speaks a lot to their insight on our needs. I’m excited to hear how this Marketplace is just the start of what they have planned because I have a lot of respect for 17hats’ dedication to small business owners.

    And in the UGlu Hotline, hear a tip for reusing latex balloons!
