Podcast Episode 10 – In the Shark Tank with Kelly Costello

Networker for Business Women with Lourdes Welhaven

Puppy Cake as Seen on Shark Tank

“If you want extraordinary results you have to put in extraordinary effort.” That is Kelly Costello’s mantra and I do think she has done an amazing job of achieving the extraordinary.

Kelly was featured on Season 3 Episode 4 of Shark Tank. If you aren’t familiar with Shark Tank you need to get familiar with this show. The premise is simple, entrepreneurs and inventors present their ideas to famous investors aka “The Sharks” in order to get funding and connections. Kelly was actually contacted by the show’s producer and invited to apply to the show.

She didn’t get funded but that didn’t stop her. She took what others may have seen as a defeat and really listened to The Sharks‘ advice to grow her business. We can all learn from that advice too. Listen in as I bring to you, Kelly Costello, owner and founder of PuppyCake.

Kelly was generous enough to give us her personal email address: [e-mail] She has invited all of us to reach out to her about our businesses and if she can help you she will. Just make sure that you place something about this Networker for Business Women interview in the subject line and body so she knows that you’re one of us and that your email is not just some spam message.

Meanwhile, we can help Kelly by promoting and using her products and connecting her with individuals and opportunities within the speaking/motivational industry. The world really needs to learn and hear from Kelly. If you can help her, just email her.

I received an email from Miriam Lovinger that she was thrilled to get business through the Directory. Here is a copy of her email:

I had to tell you that I just spoke with someone who sent a message to my website. She found me through….drum roll please…..a networking website that she found online and you guessed it, it was YOURS!!! Woo Hoo! I will be speaking with her later this evening, and hopefully I will be helping her plan a vacation or two. ….You know how I already feel about you, your group and the ability to advertise on your website. Best $25 I ever spent.
