94 - From No to Yes w Sarah Jansel
Sarah Jansel, also known as the Shopify Queen, was in the midst of a successful 20-year corporate career that wasn’t lighting her up anymore when she carved out her own path by launching a fashion boutique on Shopify, while simultaneously remaining in that corporate job. As a VP, Sarah felt stifled and uninspired, lacking some of the space and creativity that she desired. The boutique was solely online, and she was able to search out and find all the information necessary to set an online store up and make it successful.
When the pandemic hit, Sarah saw an opportunity to help business owners build, brand, and grow awesome Shopify stores which led to her decision to leave the corporate world behind and officially launch her business. Today, Jansel & Co is a thriving business that has allowed Sarah to flex her creative muscles and inspire others to create fantastic Shopify stores too!
A common theme in our conversation was overcoming and not accepting the word “no”. In fact, in many moments throughout Sarah’s life, “no” simply wasn’t an option because of the critical needs and necessities that were on the line. From her lived and learned experiences, Sarah approaches every day in her business with a “yes” attitude, resulting in the doors being wide open ever since.
Sarah has used her passion, drive, and creativity to help so many others on their journey. She recognizes the importance of showing up online – products are art, and how you’re able to showcase these creations and products is art as well. It’s important to figure out how to sell your passion and sell the art you’re creating!
Sarah reminds us, if you can dream it, you can build it…so dream away, and connect with her for any questions or advice! Her openness and willingness to connect is clear – you can find her on Instagram @sarahjansel or @janselandco!
