Welcome back Product Bosses! Are you hearing all the chatter about tariffs and wondering what it means for your small business? In this episode, I’m diving deep into the proposed Trump tariffs and how they might impact physical product-based businesses—especially those that rely on importing materials or finished goods. But before you panic, let me be clear: this isn’t a fear-based conversation. It’s a proactive one.
I’m sharing what I’ve learned after 20+ years in this industry and walking you through how to create a plan to get through this. We’ll talk about the opportunity to pivot, why nimble businesses like yours actually have the edge, and how this could be the moment that levels the playing field between small brands and mass-market giants. You’ll also hear ideas for shifting your supply chain, rethinking pricing, and using this moment to tell a stronger brand story that resonates with your customers.
If you’ve been feeling shaken by the headlines, this episode is your reminder that you are resilient, resourceful, and ready. This is your time to pivot with purpose—and I’m right here with you every step of the way.
