JMT Media Podcast by Jaclyn Tacoronte

Episode notes

Listen to Judi Townsend, Owner, and CEO of Mannequin Madness discuss her journey in creating a woman-owned, Black-owned business in a niche industry. When she started the business in 2001, it was a side hustle renting mannequins out of her backyard. She had no prior experience in the retail industry or working with mannequins. A brief stint at a dot com and a craigslist post changed everything for her. Now she has four employees, four contractors, a warehouse, and is referred to as “the Mannequin Queen” due to her industry knowledge and online presence.
