Ep. 154: Taylar Colyar, CEO + Founder of Sip Shop Eat Shares How She Curated Experiences For Small Businesses To Network + Gain Visibility
On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome the CEO + Founder of Sip Shop Eat, Taylar Hagan-Colyar, to the Friends in Beauty guest chair.
Taylar launched the Black-Owned Immersive and IRL pop-up program, Sip Shop Eat!, back in April 2017 after being dissatisfied with her experience as a vendor. She always wished she had a full-circle resource to connect with and learn from other aspiring and successful entrepreneurs. Taylar created the platform for small businesses to gain visibility they often yearn for – it’s a community for small brands to connect, share, promote and network with like-minded entrepreneurs!
Sip Shop Eat! is an experiential platform designed to gather, connect and discover all the best food, beauty, style and drinks through IRL and virtual experiences. The platform collaborates and empowers unique indie-brands to bring consumers a world of new products and experiences to enjoy. All the brands featured at Sip Shop Eat! pop-up events are carefully curated to bring a collection of the best online and retail life experiences.
I had such a wonderful time talking to Taylar about her entrepreneurship journey and the success of her transformative events. In this interview Taylar shares:
-The experiences that inspired her to create Sip Shop Eat
-How her events have grown exponentially over the years
-The vibe + experience you should expect as a vendor + attendee of Sip Shop Eat
-What consumers can do to support small businesses
-How she manages the expectations of her vendors
-The process for planning multiple events simultaneously
-Several ways that you can profit from hosting events
-All about her upcoming Sip Shop Eat events in ATL, NY, and LA + how she’s highlighting women owned businesses
It’s time to take some notes. If you host events or have ever thought about hosting events then this interview is for you. Taylar lays it all out. Let’s go ahead and jump into this education & informative interview and if you prefer to watch our beautiful faces then tune in on YouTube.
