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.

Their hyper-focused qualification process checklist for leads that allows them to drive impact and the bottom line.
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.

How to Build & Scale A Legacy Business (Fawn Weaver, Uncle Nearest) - Get Sh!t Done Podcast
Here’s what you’re going to learn from Fawn Weaver, founder of Uncle Nearest:
How they built Uncle Nearest on 99% earned media.
How they use the scale quickly model with focused intention.
How they grew to 15,000 locations quickly.
How she will be the first African American to pull off this type of legacy company.
“My end game is not to sell to one of the big guys. My end game is to BE one of the big guys.”
The entrepreneurial ecosystem has become intoxicated with the idea of fast exits.
Oftentimes, founder’s aren’t really about that life but don’t know any better because we’re stuck into what I call “the VC timezone”
Our ecosystem is so so obsessed with a vehicle that can be powerful but is NOT appropriate for MOST companies.
What I hear more often, is founders wanting to build a legacy.
That’s exactly what Fawn Weaver, founder of Uncle Nearest has done. In just a few years,
She has built the fasted growing American Whiskey brand in HISTORY and raised $60M ALLL from individuals.
“I know where all of my investors want to exit and they know that at whatever point they want to exit, I want to be the one to buy them out.”
Schools in session. Here’s what you’re going to learn from Fawn:
How they built Uncle Nearest on 99% earned media.
How they use the scale quickly model with focused intention.
How they grew to 15,000 locations quickly.
How she will be the first African American to pull off this type of legacy company.

Founder PR: How to Build Brand Awareness for FREE (Stephanie Benedetto, Queen of Raw)- Get Sh!t Done Podcast
Here’s what you’ll learn from Stephanie Benedetto, founder of Queen of Raw:
How to leverage a strategy you probably avoid or doubted yourself in that led her to pitching in front of Ashton Kutcher, Diddy, and Gary Vaynerchuck.
How to quantify impact of brand awareness when it’s not repeatable or scalable.
How to choose your vehicle for getting your story out there
She also gives you her phone number. YAS! Because she’s truly here to support you on your scaling journey like the Queen she is!
Many founders have a “corporate” mindset about PR.
Somewhere, someone along the way, who doesn’t know sh!t about startups or actually built one gave them a “playbook”.
Unfortunately, that playbook typically involves expensive PR agencies, publicists, and a whole branding strategy that most startups can’t afford.
Here’s the thing, I believe in PR. It’s a great way to build brand awareness.
However, most early-stage founders cannot compare themselves to the startups plastered on New York subway stations.
You have an opportunity to go grass-roots and make an impact for FREE.
The Queen of Raw, Stephanie Benedetto, is probably one fo the ILLEST founders I’ve seen when it comes to racking up Free PR.
She has been featured in NPR, Good Morning America, The New York Times, Vogue, WWD, ELLE, Cheddar, Parade, WCBS, United Nations, Fortune, Entrepreneur, WIRED, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and Fast Company.
Here’s what you’ll learn from Stephanie:
How to leverage a strategy you probably avoid or doubted yourself in that led her to pitching in front of Ashton Kutcher, Diddy, and Gary Vaynerchuck.

Why Your Brand Needs to Stand for Something (Emma Mcilroy, Wildfang) - Get Sh!t Done Podcast
Here’s what you’ll learn from Emma Mcilory, founder of Wildfang:
How to build an authentic brand integrated in every aspect of your business.
Why you do NOT need big budgets to do brand.
How brands will be irrelevant if they don’t stand for something.
How to avoid being a Bandwagon Brand.
“If you’re an Authentic Brand, You’re gonna F*ck up.”
We are 7 days away from one of the most important elections in my life so far and probably yours too.
Many things led us here in 2016 but one of those things was brand.
One of those brands won because of what they stood for out loud.
It was bold, blatant, in your face, and rallied those who saw themselves in it.
The most POWERFUL brands stand for something - even if that something is Hate.
Toxic brands don’t have to win. However, many slither their way to the surface when the silence of the status quo has become the norm.
Brands that exist in the future will stand for something.
Meaning, your brand can NOT sit on the sidelines silent if you want to stick around.
My fave brand genius, Emma Mcilroy, Founder of Wildfang built a brand that is SO powerful that customers tattoo it on themselves.
Emma teaches us is that authentic brands f*ck up but it allows them to do better.
Your brand means nothing if you don’t try.
Here’s what you’ll learn from Emma:
How to build an authentic brand integrated in every aspect of your business.
Why you do NOT need big budgets to do brand.
How brands will be irrelevant if they don’t stand for something.
How to avoid being a Bandwagon Brand.

How to Build Your Personal Brand to Grow Your Business (Jessica Zweig, SimplyBe) - Get Sh!t Done Podcast
Here’s what you’ll learn from Jessica Zweig, founder of Simply Be Agency:
How to formulate your message
How to avoid “faux authenticity”
How to identify your content buckets
Tactics for how you can build out your personal brand
“People will invest in you because they believe in the equity you’ve built in yourself.”
Here’s the Get Sh!t Done brand in a nutshell - It’s Alex AF.
I’m clear on why we exist, what our values are, how we live into those values and unapologetic about speaking on those things whenever I open my big mouth.
I’m not trying to be something I’m not.
I’ve scaled businesses and secured checks being me. You can do you too. It's actually the smartest way to scale.
So where do you think founders fail at their personal brands?
Trying to be a version of themselves they think is acceptable and not clearly articulating why we should care about the value they bring to the table.
One of my FAVE serial entrepreneurs and personal brander Queens, Jessica Zweig, is someone I look up to when it comes to personal branding (and I’m not the only one. Check her receipts)
She’s taught me that personal branding can lead to the only form of marketing that your company may ever need if you play your cards right.
On this week’s episode of the Get Sh!t Done Podcast, we dive into:
-How to formulate your message
-How to avoid “faux authenticity”
-How to identify your content buckets
-Tactics for how you can build out your personal brand
