Lindsay Pinchuk did something most expectant mothers would never do. At eight weeks pregnant, she started a business. After realizing that moms and moms-to-be needed a place to meet and connect with one another, she decided to create the community herself.

Eight years later, The Bump Club and Beyond has sold out more than 1,000 events in over thirty cities and has a community of more than 300,000 parents and parents-to-be across the country.

Today, Lindsay and Monica discuss how to best launch an event and work with national partners, how she uses data to drive her business decisions and how she utilized her own network in the early days to get her business off the ground.
