Starting Small, Thinking Big: How Michelle Ferron Grew Good Tuesday
Manage episode 442179754 series 2798978
Today on the podcast my guest is Michelle Ferron the founder of Good Tuesday (previously Once Upon A Tuesday), a female led brand and B Corp. Good Tuesday creates stationery for people who want to organise in all areas of life in style, from design-led annual calendars to diaries, weekly planners and notebooks printed in England and created in a sustainably conscious and ethical way.
If you're curious about what it means to become a B Corp and how businesses can achieve that status, this podcast is for you. In this episode, I dive into that very question with Michelle, but our conversation doesn't stop there. We also discuss what it takes to grow a successful brand, especially when it comes to building and managing a team. Michelle shared that she now leads a team of eight, and we explored how to know when it’s the right time to hire, the roles to prioritise, and the ins and outs of team management as your business expands.
If you're currently thinking about growing your own team or have plans to do so in the future, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss!

Hosted by Captivate
If you've been inspired to start a podcast in 2024 then I recommend my podcast host, Captivate. They were my top pick when I started 4 years ago because of how easy it was for a complete novice to get started. I’ve stuck with them because it’s still simple, they keep adding great new features (like the ability to share ads like these!) and it’s been so reliable.
