#1: Miriam Zelinsky, founder of Lazyjack Press:

We chatted with with Miriam, founder of Lazyjack Press ($21K/month). In our interview, Miriam says:

I went to the mill and had a little trouble (to say the least) because of their religious beliefs - they did not think a woman should be in this business.

Additionally:

[Spending money on loads of ads] is such a big risk, especially when that money pays for one month at a holiday market where I know I will make good sales and forge great new relationships with customers.

Further:

I only want to work with people who love the brand and believe in it. In turn, they also see more turnaround because they’re invested in it as well.

Also:

The biggest advice I can give you is to just start. You don’t need to have everything figured out – you will figure it out when you begin.
