Kelly Fallis

If Kelly could only find the time to write a book!

Tales from the Trenches would journey her account of both her professional and personal life through 2 companies, 8 distinctly different industries (real estate, finance, furniture design, shipping, customs, data and ecommerce), getting help from bodies spanning numbers between 0 and 30 and learning by doing.

Fail fast and run lean are beyond cliche but are the two principles Kelly has relied on most in her 15+ years as an entrepreneur! Couple that with a keen eye for a beautiful, well-organized space as well as an addiction for project managing a renovation or new build and well, its easy to see why it hasn’t been penned yet.

Kelly loves sharing her story to help others expedite theirs. She is a leading authority on entrepreneurial life, bootstrapping, startups, small business, technology and automation as well as a regularly quoted expert on home decor trends. She won Canada’s Business News Network ‘Best Pitch of 2012’ on the show ‘The Pitch’, and has had feature stories in the New York Times, Crains NY, Inc. Magazine, The National Post, Toronto Star, Canada.com, Wish Magazine, HGTV, too many blogs to rhyme off, and even coverage in overseas publications from China, Dubai and Australia.
