DeAnna Kennedy

DeAnna Kennedy loves business, she always have. In particular, she loves retail business. Her entrepreneurial heritage, generations of it and 25 years of her own entrepreneurial experiences, have resulted in a very busy consulting business for entrepreneurs. She grew up in retail. Her parents carved out a Texaco gas, bait & tackle business in the Northwoods of Wisconsin with 5 kids in tow. Her parents also happened to be her first employers, that's what happens in an entrepreneurial family. Her grandmother, owned a country bar in the middle of Wisconsin, was her second employer. After High School graduation, and also loving music, she created her own 7 piece band, traveling as far as she could. She quickly learned how to buy and sell name acts such as George Strait among others for conventions and fairs using her band as the opening act. She then built a 16 track recording studio, writing and recording jingles for businesses and other recording artists. All of these experiences very rich in retail. She moved to St Paul, MN to build a wholesale manufacturing company. She designed and manufactured her own line of products, managing a first rate sales team to sell products to retail shops across America. One product in particular, brought in $55,000 in sales the first two weeks of launch. This product also found its way to the White House Christmas tree. Four years later, she added a series of large retail brick & mortar shops, bringing them to million dollar successes with major branded products for over 15 years. The Online Storefront is a direct result of these experiences. She currently lives in St Paul, MN with her family on the very beautiful Mississippi River. DeAnna Kennedy is an entrepreneur, a thought leader and sales expert. After years of experience in talent development, retail and wholesale sales, she comes alongside those who want to make talent breakthroughs and find financial success! Her mission is to help others find their talents and expertise to turn them into a self-fulfilling and profitable business.
