#45 Ashlee Dozier - why DIY-ing your branding is a good thing

Author: Pepper Makepeace: Entrepreneur, Business Systems & Social Media Marketing Strategy, Solopreneur Consulting August 16, 2021 Duration: 31:14
After making the decision to leave an abusive relationship and fight for the life she knew she deserved, Anuket’s founder, Ashlee Dozier, took several months to travel solo around the world. She committed to rediscovering her independence and was determined to come out stronger than ever. Little did she know, her investment into herself would lead her to discover the thing that would change her life and inspire the creation of, what you now know as, Anuket Luxury Apothecary. In this episode, Ashlee and I talk about the serendipity of her business, the journey she’s taken literally and figuratively to get to where she is today. Ashlee shares her experiences in building a brand, particularly for a product based business, and where to focus due to the importance of prioritising money that goes hand in hand with that kind of business.

There's a particular kind of magic that happens when women building businesses decide to share their real stories-not just the polished highlights, but the messy middle parts, too. That’s the space you’ll find in the Small Business Sisterhood Podcast. Each conversation goes beyond surface-level advice, delving into the actual systems, the social media puzzles, and the personal hurdles that creative entrepreneurs and bloggers face daily. Host Pepper Makepeace brings her background as a strategist for solopreneurs into every interview, fostering discussions that feel like a candid chat between friends who just happen to be incredibly savvy about online business. This podcast serves as an audio extension of the Small Business Sisterhood community, offering a sense of connection and practical insight for anyone in those early, often isolating, stages of building something of their own. You’ll hear from a diverse range of female founders who detail what worked, what failed spectacularly, and how they navigated the path to a sustainable venture. It’s about finding your people and your strategy, one episode at a time.
