Meet Jennifer Winer

 

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jennifer Winer. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jennifer below.

Jennifer , thank you so much for joining us and offering your lessons and wisdom for our readers. One of the things we most admire about you is your generosity and so we’d love if you could talk to us about where you think your generosity comes from.

I have always had a generous and kind heart. I think a big part comes from my Mother. It also comes from the many friends and clients I know. Helping them and doing what I can is very important to me. They are also examples to me as to what other amazing and generous people are out there. I not only have a big heart for people, but also animals. With Charlie Chap the WonderCat I was able to show this, share him with the world and put smiles on peoples faces for the last 4 years. I don’t intend to stop You can see the joy and happiness it creates. I receive so many wonderful messages from people around the world about how Charlie has helped them and they can’t wait to see him everyday. It does take time to provide the content, but it fills my heart.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

When the pandemic hit, I closed my acupuncture clinic for 5 weeks. During that time the world was so in need of love, joy, and happiness. This has always been my mission. I knew Charlie Chap the WonderCat was the cat to do this. I started making some cute videos of him talking and letting people know we can get through this together. Then I would post videos of Charlie living his best kitty life. Followers loved him and looked forward to him everyday. What is most exciting and special is seeing people not only in the US but all over the world loving Charlie. His followers increase everyday.I not only show Charlie in day to day life but with his talking videos it is all about his deep thoughts, singing, story time and his playful nature which makes him unique. What a wonderful gift to give people especially during a difficult time. Charlie Chap the WonderCat LLC was created and I am focused on spreading peace, love, joy and happiness all over the world with social media content, collaborations, and merchandise so anyone can have a little bit of Charlie in their home. His book “The Adventures of Charlie Chap the WonderCat” is one of the beautiful items I have created and it has been bought all over the world. It is available at Amazon, BookBaby,Target and more. It is a hard cover book with beautiful artwork of Charlie’s rescue and the mischief he gets into. No matter what he is always loved and adored. Recently 109 limited edition plushie’s of Charlie were sent out to fans all over the world. This was our first run and it was very exciting! I will continue to find ways to expand with my mission keeping Charlie healthy and happy and living an amazing cat life.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

It’s very important to make real/organic connections with people whether in person or on social media. That is one way you can definitely grow followers and your brand.

Know that it can take some time but if it is giving you and others joy there is nothing better.

Being consistent: posting everyday on social media, starting a newsletter, deciding how you want others to see you. I wanted it to just be about Charlie Chap the WonderCat so when someone asks a question… he answers. He talks in his videos. What is your niche?

One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?

Another goal is to collaborate with grade schools, rescues, and more. Using Charlie’s videos for educational purposes and programs for young and old. When he speaks….. people listen. They really love and absorb what he says. Being an MC for cat video festivals even doing education videos for Vet offices. Personalized videos are also available at www.Charliechaptwc.com Contact for collaboration is www.meetcharliechap.com
