73: {Solo} The Journey of Creating ChilledVino

The Feminine Founder

Did you know that I'm the Founder and creator of a wine drinkware product called ChilledVino? Today I share my journey of inventing ChilledVino, my patented wine drinkware product that keeps beverages cold for hours. I talk about the inspiration behind the product and the challenges faced in bringing it to life. I emphasize the importance of having a supportive partner and hiring the right professionals, such as a mechanical engineer, manufacturing partners, marketing companies and a CPA. I also talk through the challenges of what it looked like bringing a product to life in the middle of a pandemic!

Takeaways

• Creating a product from an idea to physical creation is a challenging and expensive process.
• Having a supportive partner and hiring the right professionals is crucial.
• Prototyping and testing are essential to ensure the functionality and aesthetics of the product.
• Finding a manufacturer and navigating legal contracts can be difficult.
• Dealing with shipping and warehousing issues can present additional challenges.

ChilledVino has been featured in television segments & magazines and I wouldn't change it for the world!

ABOUT THE HOST:
Former Executive Search Recruiter turned LinkedIn Expert & Entrepreneur. I'm here to show you that you can do it too! After 15 years of working in Corporate, I knew that I was no longer serving my purpose. There was this tiny voice inside of me saying "you were made for more" and I couldn't ignore it any longer. In 2021 I launched ChilledVino, my patented wine product and in 2023 I launched The Feminine Founder.
This podcast is a supportive and inclusive community where I interview and bring women together that are fellow entrepreneurs and workplace experts. We believe in sharing our stories, unpacking exactly how we did it and talking through the mindset shifts needed to achieve great things.
