On the podcast today we break down the latest WE Forum that took place in the community last week. WE Forums are a grassroots program run by a collaboration between the Kabara Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies, the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce, RAEDI, and Collider to support local women entrepreneurs. At the latest panel discussion, we heard how local experts Shari Mukherjee of Spiced up Mom, Tiffany Alexandria of Choochoo-ca-Chew, and Beth Fynbo of Busy Baby used social media to grow their customer base and converted that base to sales. Tune in for our breakdown of this impactful conversation and takeaway some key points you can apply to your business.
