Apr 26, 2024

Hi there and welcome back to another edition of ScaleUp Radio, the podcast inspired by the Entrepreneurial ScaleUp System and designed to make navigating our ScaleUp journeys that little bit easier by learning from others' experiences.

I’m Kevin Brent and this week on the show I’m joined by   Meg Hawkins, founder of Meg Hawkins Art. Starting from her kitchen table, Meg has grown her passion for art into a flourishing global business.

We’ll explore her journey from making handmade greeting cards to securing international licensing deals and launching a wide array of products. Meg will share crucial lessons about the importance of communication, adapting to consumer feedback, and her vision for turning her family-run business into a recognisable household brand.

Whether you’re a budding entrepreneur or simply love a great business story, this episode is packed with insights on nurturing a small venture into a global success.

Make sure you don’t miss any future episodes by subscribing to ScaleUp Radio wherever
you like to listen to your podcasts.

Join us as Meg shares her inspiring story of growth, innovation, and family values.

Most founders I speak to feel busy but stuck; plenty happening, but not always clear on what genuinely matters most this quarter. If that’s you, the G90 Summit is worth a look. A structured half-day where we work through everything competing for your attention, get clear on the three to five things that must happen in the next 90 days, then commit to them and build the system to make sure they actually happen. Quarterly, virtual, £97 a seat.
