Ready to grow your eCommerce sales?
Business coach, podcast host, online course creator and CEO of a multi-million dollar ethical fashion brand.
Hey eCommerce Boss,
I'm Kristi Soomer.
I help founders of purpose-driven eCommerce brands create a digital marketing strategy, so that you can grow your revenue, transform from maker to boss, and scale a business aligned with your passion.
Do you struggle to grow your online sales? Do you freeze up when you have to write an email newsletter or post on Instagram? Do you want to grow your website traffic but have no idea how?
I get it. Running an eCommerce business is overwhelming.
And I've been in your shoes.
Since starting my eCommerce business in 2012 with just $20k in funds, I was able to scale it to multi-million dollars in revenue in just a few years in one of the most competitive industries - clothing. And I did it in a way that felt good. I built a business from the ground-up that aligned with my values. Almost 8 years later, my business, Encircled is proudly a certified B Corporation and manufactures 100% of our clothing locally in Toronto, providing valuable garment jobs to the local economy.
And I did it without wholesale. Without traditional retail. All direct to consumer through eCommerce.
I've helped hundreds of entrepreneurs like you scale their online stores.
In 2014, I started my coaching business and podcast so I could help purpose-driven eCommerce brands like you achieve their first million dollars in revenue.
It's rare to find a business coach or course creator who's actually walked the walk, and lived the startup experience.
Building an eCommerce business isn't easy, but I can help.
If you've listened to my popular podcast, Brave and Boss, you'll know I'm a super down-to-earth Canadian who focuses on practical, actionable advice. I never teach anything that I don't implement or haven't tried.
So, let's get you on track to transform your eCommerce business today.
Stop the overwhelm, learn from an expert and start to scale your online store.
I'm here to teach you that mastering digital marketing can change your business (and your life)

"I was first introduced to Kristi through the Brave and Boss podcast after meeting her and her brand in person at pop-up events. Kristi has a vast understanding of the e-commerce world for consumer goods and the ability to communicate this information in a digestible format for busy, small business owners. Her course is jam packed with worksheets and information designed to assist with both short and long term planning. The format allows you to have time to listen to the course, do the worksheets and run a business at the same time. Kristi is open and honest about her experience running an ethical fashion brand. Highly recommend her course for both beginners and established e-comm stores that can improve on their email marketing."
