35. The Best Products Come From Motivated Women - with Joyce Dales
CEO and Founder of Buzzagogo, Joyce Dales is an innovator who helps people eradicate or eliminate allergies, colds, and the flu right from the hub of viral infections - our noses.
Today Joyce shares how she became an entrepreneur and says it all started with a need to help her daughter. As with many good products, all the magic began with leaving her corporate job and turning to her creative side to become a maker. Adrienne and Joyce discuss enthusiasm, attitude, hopes, and conflicting feelings while building a women-owned business. The importance of having support from other women, the local community, and buyers' trust is essential for each woman in business. Joyce is an excellent example of a stay-at-home mom who did a fantastic job with an innovative concept that helps so many people and kids because, as she says: “The best products come from motivated women.”
