Today we introduce you to the amazing Ali Clarke, a self-made and self-taught entrepreneur who has introduced the world to the ease of dermaplaning at home. Ali shares her wisdom on starting up in the ecommerce space and how to build a brand from the comfort of your own lounge room.
Ali is the founder of Bondi Blades, a business she initially started as a side hustle but quickly scaled into a global success within 3 years. The Bondi Blade soon became the ‘it’ product, being featured across many influencers’ social media profiles and eventually going viral through TikTok.
Ali talks us through creating the idea behind her product, as well as her journey from working a 9-5 in corporate finance to becoming a successful entrepreneur in the online beauty space. We discuss the challenges of starting up in ecommerce, including working with factories, navigating complications with shipping and changing up strategies to deal with a post-pandemic economy.
Ali shares her wisdom on acting on an idea even when you feel you’re out of your depth, and how stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to surprising results.
Finding her niche on TikTok with honest, raw accounts of her life and business has seen Ali’s content go viral and build her an amazing virtual online community. No matter how scary promoting yourself or your business on social media may be, Ali is proof that pushing through the fear and becoming vulnerable with your audience can be a powerful tool for connection.
We talk about the value and power of community, and how creating a tribe with like-minded individuals is priceless in bouncing ideas around or getting your creative juices flowing. We also discuss the mindset around scarcity, and how flipping your outlook when you find others imitating your work can pull you out of a negative spin.
Ali has so much wisdom to share around being courageous in the face of adversity, and we know you’ll find so much inspiration to move confidently ahead with your own life goals. It really is possible to find a way to bring your dreams into reality, no matter the circumstances you may face.
