The Product Boss with Jacqueline Snyder
Jacqueline Snyder
The Product Boss is real business education for people who make and sell physical products.
If you’re working way too hard for the sales you’re getting, you’re in the right place. This show is about building a focused, profitable product business that gets seen and sells consistently, without sacrificing your life to it.
Hosted by Jacqueline Snyder, founder of The Product Boss and one of the country’s most sought-after product experts (featured in Inc., Forbes, NBC News, Yahoo Finance, and more), each episode delivers clear strategy you can actually use. You’ll hear workshop-style teaching and behind-the-scenes advising conversations that help you make better decisions, faster.
Whether you sell on your website, at markets, wholesale (including Faire), in boutiques, or through platforms like Shopify, Etsy, and Amazon, the strategy here works across channels. We talk best sellers and what you’re known for, pricing for profit, visibility beyond social media, conversion, inventory planning, seasonal strategy, and the systems that stop you from doing everything yourself.
You’ll also get Mirror Method and mindset episodes, because your business will always reveal what needs to grow next: confidence, consistency, boundaries, leadership, and the courage to be seen.
Guests have included Jenna Kutcher, Jamie Kern Lima, Jasmine Star, David Meltzer, Suzi Weiss-Fischmann (OPI), Mike Michalowicz (Profit First), Joy Cho, Jaclyn Johnson, Kelly Roach, and more.
New episodes drop weekly on Thursdays.

589. MUST LISTEN If You Feel Alone and Overwhelmed by All the Things You NEED to Do
So one of the greatest lessons for a product boss is learning to let go, outsource, delegate, and ask for help—all the things that feel naturally uncomfortable to us. Do you feel the same way? As we grow as business owners, parents, and individuals, one of the hardest things is asking for help. Another challenge is releasing the expectation that we should and can do everything at once.If you want to grow your business, then you need to outsource some tasks so you can focus on the bigger picture and buy back your time. Many of us use words like balance and juggle, but we feel tired, stressed, and stretched too thin trying to be everything to everyone.You really want to figure out what you want in your life, what aligns best with you, and how you can achieve that, because we're all problem solvers. But it's not about doing it all by ourselves. It’s about finding the help we need. There's never been a time when we, especially as women, could do anything we wanted in our business, generate any revenue we aimed for, and manage full-time jobs, family, caregiving, and everything else on our plates.So how can you outsource, get help, and pay for the things that will move you forward? It’s crucial to release the overwhelming expectations we place on ourselves. Let’s dive into how you can align your priorities and pave your own path to success.Resources:Consistent content is key to getting more people to see and buy your products.
