What's it really like to run a family manufacturing business in the balloon industry?

In this special in-person episode recorded at the Sempertex International Balloon Convention, I sit down with Andrea and Aidan from HI-FLOAT—the powerhouse mother-daughter duo helping lead one of the most beloved brands in our space.

We chat about:

• How HI-FLOAT started

• Why clearly defined roles are essential in a family-run business

• What it's like onboarding second and third-generation family members

• Advice for anyone considering launching a product-based business

• Making decisions based on facts,not feelings
  
  

Whether your spouse, kids, or siblings help out in your business, this episode is packed with practical takeaways (and a few funny family stories) you don't want to miss.
