Description

You are not your business, but you do owe it your leadership.

In this episode, I’m joined by powerhouse founder, coach, and podcast host Eleanor Beaton to unpack what it really takes to build an enduring brand. From mastering premium positioning to separating your personal identity from your product, Eleanor drops truth bombs every product-based founder needs to hear.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why being obsessed with your customer is your most underutilized advantage

  • The mindset shift every founder must make to scale sustainably

  • Why women entrepreneurs over-rely on marketing and how to fix it with sales

  • The real difference between producers and replicators (and why it matters for growth)

  • What Fenty and Good American get right about brand positioning

If you’ve ever felt like you’re too close to your business to sell it, or you're relying on marketing when it’s a sales problem, this conversation is your wake-up call.
