About this listen
Supermaker is a guide to business and career development by Jaime Schmidt: acclaimed entrepreneur, founder of Schmidt's Naturals, and icon of the Maker Movement.
In Supermaker, she shares how you too can start or grow your own business with advice on branding, product development, social media marketing, scaling, PR, and customer engagement, all based on her own hard-won mastery.
In just seven years, Jaime Schmidt went from making natural products in her Portland, Oregon, kitchen to turning her brand into a household name and selling her company to Unilever - without sacrificing the integrity of her product or her creative vision.
- Listeners learn how to get ahead on their own terms and while maintaining their commitment to fair and sustainable principles.
- A valuable resource to the ever-growing community of business owners and entrepreneurs who want to go from maker to magnate.
- Candid advice from an industry disruptor.
Following her growth from farmers' market stand to international brand, Jaime's book is a riveting mix of inspiration, the honest airing of mistakes, and indispensable instruction.
Supermaker empowers and unites the next generation of entrepreneurs.
- A go-to guide for the passion-to-profit journey.
- The perfect listen for aspiring entrepreneurs, makers, creatives, and anyone with an interest in natural products, selling your products online, retail strategy, and digital marketing.
- Great for anyone who enjoyed Start Something that Matters by Blake Mycoskie, Craft, Inc: Turn Your Creative Hobby into a Business by Meg Mateo Ilasco, and The Girls' Guide to Starting Your Own Business: Candid Advice, Frank Talk, and True Stories for the Successful Entrepreneur by Caitlin Friedman.

Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy.

Can not recommend enough
This book is full of knowledge, direction and truth regarding entrepreneurship and the CPG industry. I first listened to the entire book via Audible. I just purchased the hardcover to bookmark multiple sections that really have clear and insightful direction on being a creative maker to manufacturing. It reads like a novel, but I feel like I am in my favorite class with every chapter! I am so grateful the author pushed herself to write this— it is so hard as a female founder (that is a maker) to get info like this other than by trial/fire. This will truly help push me and many founders ahead. Highly recommend!

Jaime‘s account starts at the beginning in the space that so many of us can connect to. She charts the journey with all the bumps, bruises, and steps along the way with such transparency it really makes you feel like you can too.
