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.

444. Why Action Takers Are Money Makers and Lies You're Telling Yourself
Listen up Product Bosses, it's time to shift your mindset and take action! Our mindset and the way we think can absolutely hold us back from reaching our full potential. But as we dive deeper into the world of entrepreneurship, it's important to remember that the real money makers are the action takers, and if we continue to tell ourselves lies, we are going to get stuck in inaction.It’s crucial that we question the truth behind these thoughts and remember that they are just thoughts. We have the power to choose how we want to feel about them. When you start to get stuck in perfectionism, remind yourself that action is where it’s at. Action brings us more clarity than any amount of thinking can and that’s how you start to shift your mindset.We’re going to go over some of the biggest lies that you might be telling yourself — think of us as the Myth Busters to your subconscious.

We’re going to discuss five different ways of getting more customers for your business.The traditional way is making cold calls — or as we call them, warm calls — but other options are available as well, such as content, paid ads, partnerships, and collaborations.

439. Why It's Time to Think Bigger
It’s time for a pep talk, friends! If you’re a product-based entrepreneur, chances are you already want something big out of life. But we’re here to challenge you to think even bigger about what’s possible for your life and business — and here’s why!Our outlook on life is shaped by the messages we received as children: Did they teach you to dream big and believe anything was possible, or to live in scarcity and fear that the rug could be pulled out from under you at any moment? You don’t have to continue living with those beliefs! We get to shape our own narratives about what our future holds.Now is the time to think about what is possible and who you can be around to encourage that possibility. And if you need that support, we’re always here for you! Consider us your cheerleaders as you push the boundaries of what you believe you can achieve!Brought to you by the Shop 1 in 5™ Pledge!

438. Burgers, Chicken, and Pancakes
What do burgers, chicken, and pancakes have to do with your product-based business? Other than making you hungry, maybe nothing. But there are some important lessons to be learned from the food industry that do apply to your business — and they’re all about focus.We’re going to talk about why you should become known for something and how you can do that. Even some of your favorite big businesses, they all started off by being known for one major product. Sometimes you think trying more is going to give you a greater chance of finding that one best selling product, but that’s not always the case. We’ll help you find your bestseller so that you can lean into it and easily scale your business because…simplicity scales!You’ll hear the story of Chick-Fil-A, who keeps their product lineup simple despite people asking for more, and has become the biggest fast food chain in the United States, grossing more revenue than McDonald's, Subway, and Starbucks combined. On the other side is the story of IHOP — or should we say IHOB — making the “what, why” decision to enter the burger market when they’ve always been known for pancakes. Besides making you hungry, these stories are going to help you realize the power of finding something that works and becoming known for it.If you need help finding your best seller or figuring out how to leverage your best seller, then be sure to join us for our FREE workshop series, The Product Boss’ Guide to Your Best Year Yet where we will dive into this and so much more.
