How to Scale Your eCommerce Company to 7-Figures through Authenticity & Guerrilla Marketing (Jaya Halepete Iyer, Founder of Svaha)- Get Sh!t Done Podcast

Here’s what you’ll learn from Jaya Halapete Iyer, founder of Svaha:

  • How she grew 250% in year 1 and scaled to $1M by year 3.

  • How she targeted a specific yet mighty niche of customers who became an army of advocates that led to brand collaborations.

  • How she leveraged the flywheel approach to double down on scaling core competencies.

  • And more...

She scaled to 7-figures in eCommerce.

There are 10’s of millions of eCommerce websites in the US but supposedly only 7% generate $1M+ ARR.

Meet Jaya Halepete Iyer, the founder of Svaha. She’s a part of the 7%, which a fraction of that is owned by womxn entrepreneurs.

Jaya’s story resonated so much with me because my former company that exited was in eCommerce.

We often talk about how “easy” it is to start an eCommerce company and that’s correct. However, do you know how HARD it is to scale?!

eCommerce is one of the most saturated markets and unless you’re able to cut through the noise, scaling is an uphill battle.

Here’s what you’ll learn from Jaya:

  • How she grew 250% in year 1 and scaled to $1M by year 3.

  • How she targeted a specific yet mighty niche of customers who became an army of advocates that led to brand collaborations.

  • How she scaled authenticity through guerrilla marketing and word of mouth.

Queen of the Week: She Robbed a Bank the Launched in 700 Stores w/ $330k in Funding (Chantel Calloway, Ryhme Antics) - Get Sh!t Done Podcast

On this Queen of the week, Chantel, a Queen in the Get Sh!t Done Tribe, will walk you through…

  • How she moved to New York with just a prototype and $150 then launched in stores like Walmart, Target, etc.

  • How she moved through doubt from people who defined her by her past.

  • What doesn’t work when you are trying to gain traction.

  • How she was able to reframe her mistake to become a thriving entrepreneur.

  • And more..

She robbed a bank but bounced back & launched in 700 stores with $300k in funding.

I first met Chantel when she applied to the Get Sh!t Done Accelerator.

I was blown away by her.

I’ll joke and tell her she’s like the real-life Set if Off without all of the drama but what she’s accomplished is SOOO much bigger.

Chantel’s story resonated strongly with me because my grandmother spent her entire career ensuring Black Youth stayed out of prison and for those who did go, ensured they had opportunities when they got out.

The Black community is so often criminalized by the media without acknowledging the systems that backs us into a corner and tries to keep us there.

Chantel didn’t just rob a bank, she defied a system that was created to keep us stuck.

On this Queen of the week, Chantel, a Queen in the Get Sh!t Done Tribe, will walk you through…

How to Be the 1st to Market & The Best - Building the Minimum Lovable Product (Judith Erwin, Grasshopper Bank) - Get Sh!t Done Podcast

Here’s what you’ll learn from Judith Erwin, founder of Grasshopper Bank:

  • How she’s built alongside her customer through what her team calls getting to the “Most Lovable Product.”

  • How to build the best team by always recruiting —> She interviews 5 people/week when she’s not hiring. That's 4X that when she is hiring.

  • How she raised a record $133M in core capital with 3 women + a man of color but almost lost it all in a matter of 2 hours.

"I ended up with 110 investors & $133 Million in Total." I learned about Judith Erwin through a friend that works for her a couple of months ago. I stopped dead in my tracks when I found out that she is the founding CEO of Grasshopper Bank - the 1st FULLY digital bank in the US.

WHY was I just hearing about her? The hype around millennial entrepreneurs is deafening BUT 45+ are doin' the damn thang. #NumbersDontLieCheckTheScoreBoard

Even though she raised a TON of money, the amount of $ Judith raised is not the most interesting about what she's built. I just knew y’all would click 💁‍♀️

What’s more interesting is how she approaches building her company as the 1st to market.

Yes. Entrepreneurs are building the plane while it’s flying but when you are 1st to market, you’re not only building the plane while it’s flying, you're also doing it while it’s pitch black!

Here is what I love and have learned about Judith and how she’s winning at being the first:

  • How she’s built alongside her customer through what her team calls getting to the “Most Lovable Product.”

  • How to build the best team by always recruiting —> She interviews 5 people/week when she’s not hiring. That's 4X that when she is hiring.
