Episode 21: Not On The Highstreet Co-Founder Holly Tucker

 

Today we are delighted to bring you Holly Tucker, the co-founder of the first marketplace of its kind, notonthehighstreet.com, the place to pick up fantastic inspiration and bespoke gifts. Side note: notonthehighstreet.com is also very helpful when you’re trying to get back into your mum’s good books and make her happy with a thoughtful hand-designed gift. Just saying! Since stepping away from day to day operations she's now championing creative business owners through her new venture - Holly & Co.

Like so many businesses, it was set up around a kitchen table shared by her co-founder Sophie Cornish. We dare say this was the inspiration behind her bestselling book, “Build a Business from Your Kitchen Table”, but you know, that’s just a guess!

Hear more about Holly’s inspirational story, as she shares the highs and lows of building one of Britain’s best-loved online marketplaces.

We chat about:

  • Working from the age of 13

  • Creating notonthehighstreet.com together with Sophie Cornish at their respective kitchen tables

  • Giving back and helping small businesses thrive

  • Why Holly advises entrepreneurs to trust their internal compass

Are you enjoying the second season so far? We'd love to hear your thoughts. Let us know what you think and, while you're at it, why not give us a review in iTunes? We'd really appreciate it!
