  • “Hot takes”

    You guys are so funny. You seemed very worried about making anyone mad. 😂 Both of you talked yourselves out of every stance. I could hear the fear. That’s okay. It’s one of the reasons why we love you. You try to be open-minded. LOL.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

ON TWO DIFFERENT PLANETS
Q: What makes Etsy preferable to selling directly via Instagram or a standalone site?
Etsy helps you reach the right buyers and offers built-in shipping, promotional tools, and support, making it a good fit when you're starting with limited time and resources.
ON TWO DIFFERENT PLANETS
Q: Tell us about your niche on Etsy and how you got started.
Sarah explains she makes colorful fabric-wrapped picture frames, started after a friend suggested Etsy, and opened her shop in March, focusing on a manageable, time-constrained approach while working full-time.
SIDE HUSTLE SUMMER IS BACK!
Q: So Shannon, what has been the biggest challenge in growing your business and how did you overcome it?
The biggest challenge has been marketing and business knowledge; I didn't study marketing, so I've relied on social media and word of mouth, and I've gradually hired more staff to scale while keeping my schedule flexible.
BEST AND WORST CAR BUYING TIPS w/ TOMI FROM DELIVRD
Q: Tommy, what is your background?
Tomi explains her decade in retail car sales, finance, and her recent focus on running Delivrd, a company that coordinates a team to negotiate and deliver the best possible car deals for clients, often handling 450 deals a month with a large team.
COULD CRASH TESTS BE KELLY'S NEXT MICRO-HOBBY?
Q: How should families interpret a model not being on the list?
A model not on the list reflects the current test criteria and design priorities; it doesn't mean the car is unsafe overall, but that the vehicle didn't meet the specific stringent benchmarks at that model year.
