In this episode of "Forward Founders" we talk to Claudia North about the challenges faced by solopreneurs and ecommerce businesses in optimizing their online presence and logistics.
Running a business can be lonely, something that Claudia learned when she founded her first business "Mumi & Bubi" and was a key factor in founding her second business, "With Small Business".
"With Small Business" provides eCommerce marketing advice, connecting small businesses with qualified marketing experts, so Claudia was the perfect guest to delve into topics such as balancing generating revenue with growth, the importance of data and understanding consumer behaviour.
