Suzie shared her Inspiring entrepreneurship Success Story
About Suzie
At age 50, I took the biggest risk of my life : I took my kids University Savings funds and launched my own Start-ups: ”Suzie’s Good Fats”.
After 20 years as a Marketing Executive, I was putting my own money to how how a Brand is launched. I launched the first Keto-Friendly, low Sugar, High goods nutritional bars in North America.
It was a phenomenal success : we sold $8 Million in Year 1 (2018) and $47 Million in Year 2 and scaled faster than any other brand launched in Canada in 30+ years. We smashed records and won more than a dozen Awards!
During my career in larger CPG companies, I was nicknamed "Turn-Around Suzie" for my track record at launching or ”fixing” brands/portfolios. No matter the challenge.
Now, I share this wealth of practical experience and succeses with my Keynotes, Workshops, and Masterclasses equip you to tackle core issues, from refining Strategic Plans (STRAT, OGSM) to optimizing Brand Positioning and driving Brand Innovation.
You'll leave empowered with actionable frameworks, strategic tools, and skills to continue propelling your brand forward with proven, results-driven insights
