Show Notes:
Coley and Lindsey stumbled upon their entrepreneurial dream eight years ago out of happenstance when they hosted a backyard junk sale. Since then, they have hosted four Junk in the Trunk Vintage Markets a year — two in Arizona and two in California — started The Foundress and are currently working on The Vintage Arcadia.
The Foundress is a women’s networking group that exists to help women confidently push the boundaries of their business. Mentors share their failures, trials and successes of leading in their industries with other members looking to flourish and grow their network.
The Vintage Arcadia will be a restaurant/retail space with farm-to-table dining and drinks from Chestnut, and artisan goods, curated gifts, home decor, and one-of-a-kind antiques for vintage lovers. It is set to open this November.
With these three businesses, Coley and Lindsey sought to create a hub for like-minded individuals. Phoenix was lacking these types of niche communities, so these two decided it was their job to fill the void.
Through hard work and determination, and seeking out those like-minded individuals, Coley and Lindsey built their empire.
These ladies will show you the ropes in finding those niche communities missing a space to connect and network. They will guide you in creating a space for such communities, ultimately filling the void.
