A Chat with August’s Profile, Kassie Rempel, founder and owner of SimplySoles

CS: Are you enjoying your new career?
Rempel: Immensely. Like everyone else in the industry, I’m concerned about the new postal rate increases and how that will affect an up and coming catalog like SimplySoles, but that doesn’t scare me away from wanting to remain a part of the industry.

With family wealth planning it was always very dynamic and changing. I was always looking at cause and effect and so I felt there’s a lot of similarities there. It gave me an incredible confidence that in the area of finance I was extremely confident because I was entering an area where I was such a novice. It did help to give me confidence so I could go ahead and say I might not understand paper or list brokering or mailing. But I know how to look at financials.
