Exquisite in many ways...

What an inspiring story, helpful and informative. I couldn’t stop listening! Highly recommend to anyone but especially entrepreneurs.

Can not recommend enough

This book is full of knowledge, direction and truth regarding entrepreneurship and the CPG industry. I first listened to the entire book via Audible. I just purchased the hardcover to bookmark multiple sections that really have clear and insightful direction on being a creative maker to manufacturing. It reads like a novel, but I feel like I am in my favorite class with every chapter! I am so grateful the author pushed herself to write this— it is so hard as a female founder (that is a maker) to get info like this other than by trial/fire. This will truly help push me and many founders ahead. Highly recommend!

Know Who You Are and What Your Product Is

This is not a how-to story, but the telling of experiences and the determination required, and how that lead to success. This is a book to inspire other makers in their endeavors of how to navigate potential pitfalls, and a reminder to be vigilant but not to drive solely using your rear-view mirror. Schmidt writes of how hyper-focus on her brand and customers dictated her direction, and if there is anything we can take away from this read, it is to be true to your vision and the people your intend to serve, whatever that may be.

Thank you, Jaime, for sharing your bold & REAL story
