How do you\u00a0become a Biz woman who ROCKS?<\/p>\n

Listen to our Interview with Lena Phoenix\u00a0of Xero Shoes\u00a0to find out!<\/h1>\n

Okay, I was a skeptic, but Lena Phoenix has made a believer out of me! \u00a0Her company\u00a0Xero Shoes<\/em> are lightweight performance sandals that people wear for running (yes, running!), hiking, walking, yoga and just about everything else you can imagine. \u00a0It’s for the person who hates wearing shoes, the athlete who isn’t happy with their bulky and ill-fitting normal shoe wear and everyone in between. \u00a0In this inspiring interview, Lena talks about how the company got started, how they drive traffic to their website (the majority of their sales happen online!), what she does when sh*% hits the fan and all about her experience going on Shark Tank!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lena’s\u00a0Kick-A$$ Quotes:<\/h2>\n

Being in footwear is very much about building a successful brand.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We made sure that we knew our numbers upside down and backwards.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
