The last couple of episodes I listened to were just infomercials to get you to join some paid content club.

A Must-Listen for the Small Retail Business Owner
This podcast is a must-listen if you own a retail business! Wendy has been a game-changer for me in running my brick-and-mortar. She “speaks my language”, making it easy for me to understand business concepts (as a non-business major “accidental entrepreneur”), making even the more complicated, un-fun sides of running a business approachable, and yes - fun! She stays on top of trends and the current challenges of running a business in the ever-changing world. I seriously don’t know what I’d do without her!

Wendy Batten is Your Go-To Coach
Listen to The Creative Shop Talk podcast simply to learn from one of the best. Wendy is kind, generous, wise, funny, and everything that the word “professional” connotes. Her heart and focus are set on helping entrepreneurs thrive in both work and life and that is clear to anyone who has the good fortune to know and to work with her. I may be biased, but episode #29, may be one of her most fun, as we share tips about reducing stress at work and within your work! Listen in and stay the course because Wendy will guide you through to success.

Chocked full of valuable content!
I’m a new retailer and Wendy’s podcasts have been invaluable in regards to getting my creative juices flowing as well as to getting me to tackle some of the not so fun things regarding running my business. Her podcasts are not full of commercials that advertise her other offerings. Instead, they are full of useable ideas and information. I’m looking forward to growing my business with Wendy’s tips and tricks.

Swiss Army Knife for brick-and-mortar
Wendy has the best podcast I've seen for just about every aspect of running a local business. Want to know how others have made it? What you're doing that you shouldn't? Whether you're talking yourself out of success? How to attract more foot traffic? How to keep your head together in the time of the pandemic?
Then this is your podcast. Wendy has an easy-to-listen-to vocal style, and speaks from being-in-the-trenches experience. I don't see how you can be in business without this. Honest.

I love this podcast!
I’ve recently decided to open a brick and mortar store to offer personalized decor and workshops. This podcast has been helpful in showing me some of the things I didn’t know needed my attention and helped me to focus on the things I need to plan. The messages are not too long and are packed with powerful content! I’m looking forward to taking this journey with you!
Thank you Wendy!

I love this podcast!
Creative Shop Talk is a wonderful show. It's like sitting down with a good friend to talk through how to create excellence. Wendy is so much more than a good friend, though! She is smart, savvy, and knows how to be successful because she's done it herself. I learn so much from every episode, and I'm inspired to put the ideas she shares into action. Wisdom, motivation, and inspiration -- it's all here!
