As the financial year draws to a close, it’s a good time to reflect on the current climate of the children’s entertainment industry and what trends and development have occurred in the industry. Toy World Magazine has reported that toy company Spin Master has published their full year and Q4 revenue reports. The stats show that their Toy and Entertainment sectors benefited from a Q4 turnaround driven by impressive performances from Bitzee, Gabby’s Dollhouse, Monster Jam, and Unicorn Academy. Having an IP entertainment brand with multi-revenue opportunities may be the key to maintaining business growth in the children’s entertainment sector. At Green Bean Studios, we understand the importance of this, with each branch of our brand supporting and driving business growth.

Building a business from the ground up is no small task. Green Bean Studios founder Anita Frost recently spoke as a guest on The Elegance of Souls (TEOS) podcast, sharing her background and insights into leadership and wellbeing as a Black female entrepreneur. Founded by Ekanem Kofi Ikpeme, TEOS aims to engage and transform minds creatively one conversation, one story, one journey at a time. As a podcaster Ekanem seeks to give encouragement, insight and empowerment from her own challenges and through community and faith. The podcast is part of a new series called Pacesetters, which explores how business leaders can set the right pace for sustainable leadership, to flourish not just in their professional lives but in their personal lives and overall wellbeing. The show invites guests to delve into questions such as ‘who are we becoming in achieving our goals?’, and ‘how have we grown as we learn about pace?’ to gain perspectives on how self-care and stress management can lead entrepreneurs to a true and healthy version of themselves. On the show, Anita discussed some of the challenges she faces in the business world as a Black female founder. Despite this adversity, she talks about how Green Bean Studios has innovated and adapted to grow to a thriving children’s IP entertainment brand valued at £140 million.
