Natalie glaze and zanna van dijk met because of instagram. today, they’re the #founders of stay wild swim (@staywildswim ), a sustainable swimwear brand designed and stitched in london.
💕
the pair’s deep connection to sustainability and the ocean inspired them to start the company together. but neither had a formal background in fashion. “for us, there was so much bliss in the naiveté of just beginning our business,” explains zanna. “we started out not really knowing what we were getting ourselves into and gave it a go — and the next thing you know, we’re in up to our necks.” 🌊✨ in our limited series #founders, we’re sharing the stories of amazing small business owners from all over the world. a new episode will be available every saturday until christmas. to see even more #founders stories, check out @instagramforbusiness

“we wanted to make sure we emphasize that real food is good food, and real food comes from the land,” says priscilla. the family friendly shave ice food truck doesn’t run on artificial food colorings or flavors, instead they serve up fresh and organic ingredients that provide kids with a healthier take on the famous dessert. “and sometimes, that means sourcing ingredients from our own yard. one of our favorite things to do with our boys is have daniel climb up [the banana tree], and have the boys underneath and ready to catch those bananas.“
during the holidays, the husband and wife team uses instagram to tease out special seasonal flavors while also sharing the holiday traditions they spend together as a family. “our family is such a big part of the business, our kids are with us from every step,” priscilla says. showing personal behind-the-scenes moments helps create a deeper connection between them and their customers. “people do feel like a part of the family.”
thanks for watching our #founders series and stay tuned for more tips for the rest of the year.

“we reached out to our network who were in the creative community and pulled them in to help us develop these classes together,” says david knight, co-founder of workshop (@workshopsf ). together with kelly malone, the #founders started their unique diy art school whose teachers are composed of other local makers and designers.
in preparation for the busy holiday season, workshop teases out its holiday-themed classes on instagram—from making classic wreaths to scented candles. workshop also shares photos during classes, while taking cues from their student's own posts on instagram. “we learn a tremendous amount from what our students are posting on instagram,” david says. “it's like we get to work together because they're excited to show off what they did in class and we're excited to show folks they can do it too.”
next saturday, we're sharing more small business #founders and the ways they're tackling the busy shopping season.

Reflecting on last weeks off site strategy day with a small team of co-founders, all committed to taking their business forward in a more purposeful and intentional way. 👊🏼 in one day, armed with many coloured 🔶post its 🔷we were able to:
✔️ review 2019; the breakthroughs and challenges; including the elephants in the room!
✔️ get clear on the numbers 💰
✔️ check in on shared team values and review how they’re being lived
✔️ agree on the leadership behaviours that need to be role modelled
✔️ get clarity on the top 3 business critical priorities to support their vision
✔️create an action plan with clear roles and responsibilities for q1 and q2
and we still had time for a decent lunch and a quick stroll along the river. 🙌🏼. this outcome would have been impossible to achieve in their office. the value of getting off site, getting your head out of the day-to-day and committing to a structured agenda with limited distractions is worth the investment x10.
Following on from the success of our recent scale up program and demo day we are extremely proud to announce that we have finalised a partnership deal with tectonic london, a firm that validates and builds commercially viable digital products.
since our inception we have maintained that we are committed to backing black founders and black professionals, and for many reasons, this partnership demonstrates that ongoing commitment. tectonic was created in 2017 after a chance meeting at an airport in casablanca led ceo nana parry to engage in a discussion with another gentleman in the airport about building an app. the gentleman asked nana if he had a team that could build the app, although nana did not have a team or even a company at the time, he said yes and set about building out his team within 24 hours of his arrival back in the uk. the gentleman became his first customer.
this partnership is of huge importance to us not only because it demonstrates our commitment to backing uk businesses with black founders but also because it enables us to enhance our offering to other businesses we look to back in the future. our services now include: advisory, funding, and now with tectonic, validation and technical development! cornerstone partners have acquired a valuable stake with a six figure investment in tectonic london in order to enhance our offering and to help scale the tectonic business (already turning over six figures annually) to one of the largest of its kind in the uk over the next 3-5 years. please join me in congratulating all parties involved in making this possible.

Why is persistence important in sales?
perhaps you believed in the ideal 'one call close', back in the day. while it's certainly possible, the majority of high ticket sales require relationships that involve several conversations over a period of time. on top of that, you may be managing a number of conversations at any one time!
how do you persist with your prospects?
by implementing a solid followup process. thankfully, there are several tools and processes you can use.
top closers don't give up until they get a sale, or a no.
be persistent! 😎💪 do you have a solid followup process? share below! 👇

В запахе эспрессо с шоколадом.
Кислинка от кофе. Молочный шоколад, кофе, кислинка переходящая в сладость от сиропа. Долгое послевкусие. Хранение не пошло на пользу. Раньше он мне нравился чуть больше. Впрочем это очень хорошо.

Three lessons
there are those who are 'builders' of #businesses. they love a blank slate and the #challenge of starting from scratch. they can start, several times over, with no lag in enthusiasm
there are those who love to manage #startups. figuring out how to get the very best from meagre #human, social and #capital resources at different stages of #growth.
then - there are those who get rich from #entrepreneurship. they cede control and 'unlock monetary value' from their work.
to find all the 3 qualities in one #founder is rare
do you know what #drives you?

У нас очередной фруктовый Топ, чтоб подсластить грусть понедельника 🍺🤘 blushing monk — фруктовый эль в бельгийском стиле (9.2% abv). Сорт founders сварен с огромным количеством малины и сброжен бельгийскими дрожжами. Напиток получится крепким, терпким и со вкусом малинового джема. Сильный, многогранный аромат свежей малины в паре с глубоким, сложным, насыщенным, ярким вкусом делают это пиво чудесным образцом стиля. Текстура плотная, бархатистая. Ягодная сладость и прекрасный баланс скрывают внушительный градус. Идеальное десертное пиво.
blushing monk входит в ТОП-50 лучших сортов в стиле fruit на ratebeer, а его рейтинг составляет 100/100
