In this episode of Local Bella, Alyssa sits down with Jenn Wisegarver, founder of We Are Coming, a small business consultant who helps business owners figure out what’s working, what isn’t, what needs to happen next, and most importantly, actually get it done. Jenn’s work spans areas like strategy, project management, business consulting, change management and operations.

Jenn’s approach is refreshingly simple: the perfect plan doesn’t matter much if it never gets implemented.

One of her biggest pieces of advice?

Do the 1.0 version.

It might not be the prettiest or most optimized version yet, but if it gets finished, you finally have something real to improve.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why “done” can be more valuable than “perfect”

• Starting a business before everything is completely figured out

• How Jenn made the leap into entrepreneurship

• Why people often want you before you think you’re ready

• The reality of running a business without a huge financial safety net

• Why systems and operations matter when you’re trying to grow

• Building workflows that actually fit into real life

• Working with busy business owners, parents and small teams

• Knowing what success actually means before starting a project

• Why expectations between a client and consultant need to be clear

• Using analytics instead of running a business purely on vibes 😂

• Designing a business around your priorities and family

• Why social media works best when people can actually get to know you

• Learning from the risks and imperfect decisions that come with entrepreneurship

Jenn also talks about building a business that works around real life. That might mean meetings from the car, kids nearby, voice notes instead of perfectly organized emails, or finding a completely different way to get the job done.

Basically, business, but make it human.
