Allison (Ali) Kaplan is a self proclaimed career side hustler, and that she is! With a “day job” in writing and journalism as Vice President of content for MSP Communications’ Cities Media Group, which includes Twin Cities Business Magazine, where she also serves as Editor in Chief and MplsSt.Paul Magazine, to her “hustle” as Founder of Mother Of, we are so excited to share her story, energy, and insight into the retail industry and all things business journalism.
In this episode, we begin by talking about all things “Mother Of,” the go-to dress resource for mothers of the bride and groom. Whether you are that of the bride or groom, you too deserve to feel and look your best. Her business was designed to curate that list and access to dresses, cutting through the clutter, to find what works for you. We talk about how the business blossomed, functions, and serves the greater community at large. We discuss the woes of the fashion industry and how to curate your best wardrobe.
At heart, Ali truly is a writer, an editor, a speaker and a storyteller who takes an entrepreneurial approach to journalism—from the creation of her own Ali Shops in the “dark ages” before Instagram to the more recent development of TCB’s StartMN magazine focused on entrepreneurship, weekly radio show Shop Girls on myTalk107.1 co-hosted with her mom, and a TCB podcast about business leadership and innovation called By All Means. This episode takes you on the journey of how Ali became who she is in the business world and provides ways you too can lean on her insight and resources.
