What Would Lu Do?: 5 Traits Every Standout 7-Figure Window Treatment Entrepreneur Has in Common

Today With LuAnn Nigara:

What separates the window treatment pros who build wealth from those who just build stress?

In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the five non-negotiable traits I’ve seen in every successful entrepreneur I’ve interviewed, coached, or worked alongside. After 1,300+ podcast interviews, dozens of coaching clients, and decades building Window Works, one truth is clear: success isn’t magic—it’s math. It’s made of actions, habits, and decisions.

Today, I’m walking you through the exact traits you need to cultivate if you want to scale with purpose, lead with confidence, and build a business that actually works—for you, your family, and your future.

This is the unfiltered truth about what it really takes to thrive in this business. So grab your notebook and let’s get to work.

In this episode, I’ll share:

• Why you can’t skip the hard lessons (and how to grow from them)
• What WD-40 has to do with your pricing strategy
• How a branding breakthrough transformed Window Works after 35 years
• The Sandra Funk pivot that launched a movement
• And how Carrie Underwood can teach you something about showing up (yep, really)
