Episode 4: Tommy Wood owner and founder of Bootlikker Hot Sauce in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Always Being Positive. Growing a Diverse Brand. Family Entrepreneurism. Willingness to Learn.
Hosted by: Deborah Michas (IG: @deborahmichas) & Justin Bizzarro (IG: @justinbizzarro)
Episode Notes:
1) Getting friends and family to taste test products and give honest feedback is essential.
2) Do not put any product into the hands of consumers that does not live up to your flavor and/or quality expectations.
3) Print advertising is not working. Internet and social media are producing greatest results.
4) Sharing knowledge is the key to success but so is learning from an entrepreneur, especially if it is a family member.
5) Always grow and look for new opportunities as an entrepreneur.
