398. Profitable organic decor and building trust

This episode was recorded live from the Sempertex International Balloon Convention, where once again, I sat down with Elisabeth of Pop of Color (Arizona). This is her third time on the podcast, but our first time recording face-to-face! 

We chat about organic balloons, how this style has earned its place in the industry and what it really looks like to run a profitable home-based balloon business without chasing every trend or install.

We cover:

  • pricing based on your market (not competition)

  • setting real profit goals

  • how she structures her prep and install days

  • the client process she refuses to give up, because it's such a game changer for repeat business. 

This conversation is honest, refreshing and full of all sorts of practical takeaways, especially if you want to make good money without building a massive operation.
