Breaking Through Fear to Find YOUR Thing!, with Britton Murdock Nunn

My guest today is Britton Murdock Nunn, and she is the entrepreneur behind The Biggest Little Fashion Truck in Reno, Nevada. My team and I got to meet Britton recently when we hosted a Big Dream Gathering at the University of Nevada. I will let her tell her story, but the very short version is she was on a career track that wasn't a good fit. But she decided to make some changes, and that led her to launch an innovative, crazy-cool business involving fashion, fun and a big pink truck! Listen To The Podcast: RESOURCES: Website: biggestlittlefashiontruck.com INTERVIEW: Britton, welcome to DREAM THINK DO. Oh, my gosh. Thank you for having me. This is just fun. We're just gonna get to continue a conversation we started in Reno. I'm so in. I'm so excited. I love it. Okay, so DREAM THINK DO-ers, just know this. We're going to talk about this Biggest Little Fashion Truck, and you guys are gonna love it. If you want to see footage of this, just go to mitchmatthews.com/208, and we'll include the video where we got to spend the day with Britton. So you'll actually get to see it, and I do want you to see it, because it's so, so cool. Britton, when you describe The Biggest Little Fashion Truck to someone, how do you describe what it is that you do? First, I always start with just a fashion truck in general, and what it is. A fashion truck operates and looks similar to a food truck, so we do popups around town, in front of local businesses or inside local businesses. You might find us in or near wine bars, lash extension studios, doctors' offices. You name it, we've probably done it. And then we set up festivals downtown, so we pop up on the street and you can shop inside the truck. And then we do just a lot of home parties, so we go to people's homes and we set up inside for a little private shopping event for your friends, or birthday parties, or whatever it may be. So, it looks and operates very similarly to a food truck, except we sell women's clothing. It doesn't smell the same as a food truck. But it looks awesome, right? And, guys, you've gotta know this is a big, pink, four-wheel-drive, dreamy vehicle that is not necessarily easy to drive. It certainly doesn't look easy to drive. But it is awesome when it comes pulling up to a location, which is just so much fun. It really is. I gotta say, when our researcher brought up your story and said, "She's got a fashion truck." I'm like, "Cool. What is a fashion truck?" Is this a common thing? Are fashion trucks happening all over the place? I mean, you are literally the first time I've ever heard of it. Well, I think that they're getting big in bigger cities, which I think everything kind of starts in New York, LA. So there are fashion trucks, and there's a lot of fashion trailers where people pull a retro-cool Airstream behind them, and then you can shop inside it or something like that. I have seen a few that look similar to mine, as far as truck model. But I'm the first and only one in Reno, so I'm pretty new in this area. Yeah. So, you're kinda teaching people what it is as you're doing it. Yes. It's definitely a new idea, a new concept, especially for the businesses that I work with. I mean, there's no one that's out there doing this, so I'm kind of having to initiate the negotiations with other businesses. Yeah, absolutely. You make it a win-win. For some businesses, they're doing it for their employees. For some businesses, they're doing it for their clients. Or some people are just having parties as you said, and you're showing up and doing it at their houses. Yeah. I think a lot of businesses who want to get more foot traffic on, let's say like one of their dead nights, maybe like a Wednesday or Thursday. I'll pop in, and then people come to their business, so it drives foot traffic for them. And then also, if it's like a wine bar or something, then it drives drink sales. Hello, drinking and shopping? Come on.
