060: Breaking Through Fear with Allie Evans of Tama Swim

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Allie Evans fell into a successful career in real estate, but when COVID-19 hit, she wondered if she could do more. Through her passion for beach lifestyle and sustainability, she started Tama Swim, a consciously-curated women’s swimwear label. The swimwear is made from recycled yarn from ghost fishing nets in an entirely closed-loop system. After a successful launch, Allie is building Tama Swim, a brand synonymous with an ethically-conscious mission to preserve the beaches and oceans where swimwear thrives. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Listen to Mollie and Allie discuss: </span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How the</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Start and Scale</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">course helped her find an ethical manufacturer</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How her real estate experience transitioned to ecommerce </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Creating a pre-launch giveaway to build newsletter subscribers</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Choosing to be 1% of the Planet company   </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How a product launch can validate an idea </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Juggling a 9 to 5 role with a side hustle </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">How to set a schedule and goals </span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">And much more product launch advice…</span></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><strong>Who do you want to see next on the podcast?</strong> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Comment and let us know!
