What would you do if your very FIRST client was the cousin of Queen Elizabeth?
That’s exactly what happened to my guest today. Elizabeth Solaru is an internationally renowned voice in luxury business, but she started from humble beginnings, baking cakes in her grandmother’s Nigerian kitchen in elementary school.
In this episode, we explore the adventures Elizabeth took from boarding school, all the way to her travels around the world baking the most decadent cakes for celebrities, billionaires, royalty, and more.
What does this have to do with Native Digitals? Well, Elizabeth also happens to have made NFT history by being the first cake designer to hold an NFT. In other words, she’s moved into the Native Digital space, while being a Native Analog, and other companies should be taking note.
Elizabeth is a dear friend of mine and has already earned her reputation as one of the best wedding cake companies in the world – in fact, her creations have been featured on TV, in numerous prestigious national and international publications such as Vogue, Tatler, Wedluxe, Brides, Martha Stewart Weddings, The Telegraph, and Conde Nast BRIDES and countless internationally respected blogs.
You don’t want to miss her stories of luxury companies that are doing a GREAT job transforming their markets for Native Digitals and… those that aren’t.
This is a fascinating conversation. Stay tuned for my solocast where I discuss learnings from the show.
