Jacqueline Snyder
About this episode

It’s 2025! You’re finally ready to take the plunge into entrepreneurship. Or maybe you’ve been working on the “next big thing” for a while now, but are stuck on how to get it off the ground. Guess what… you can do it! And I’m here to help. In this episode, I’m breaking down the key steps to turn your amazing idea into a successful online business.

My family comes from a long line of entrepreneurs. It is practically built into my DNA. And I’ll let you in on a little family secret. People are always going to need something. But it’s not our parents' world anymore and so we have to adapt to our surroundings and the ever-changing seller’s market. So it will probably come as no surprise that in 2025, if you’re not selling online, you’re going to be left behind. 

E-commerce does not have to be scary or hard. You just have to believe in your idea and follow some basic steps. From ideation – figuring out what to sell and who to sell it to – to launching your product with a strong brand identity, you’ll get all those tips and more in this episode. So whether you’re looking for financial freedom, job security, or just to turn your hobby into some extra revenue, join me in this episode as I help you take the right steps forward towards controlling your future.
