Meet Brittany Dolin & Nicole Dayan: Co-Founders, Pocketbook Agency
We had the good fortune of connecting with Brittany Dolin & Nicole Dayan from Pocketbook Agency and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Brittany Dolin & Nicole Dayan, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking.
We have always viewed risks as opportunities for learning and growth. Success is not something that will just randomly happen; you genuinely have to pursue it. When we started Pocketbook Agency, it was the most significant risk we had ever taken in our professional lives. We had no idea if it was going to fail or going to exceed all expectations. Luckily, Pocketbook Agency became a success and continues on the path of growth every day! Even today, we take risks for our company to learn, grow, and continually improve how we do business and provide exceptional services for our clients. Playing it safe won’t get you to the next level – in work and life.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If a friend was visiting LA and we were showing them around – here are our top spots for food, drink, and fun:
Food: If there’s one thing we love to do together, it’s sharing a meal! Here are some of our favorite LA restaurants – Republique, Sushi Gen, Bestia, il Piccolino, Sushi Enya, and Pace. Drink: We love a great cup of coffee! Check out The Commissary, Aharon Coffee, Alfred Coffee, and Urth Cafe. For a night out and a great cocktail, we suggest Tiki-Ti (so fun!), Rodger Room, Spago, and Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air. Fun: Hiking in LA is the best – try Runyon canyon or Franklin canyon for beautiful views and a great workout. Check out a Laker’s game at Staples Center, play a game of golf at Rancho Park golf course, or check out Descanso Gardens in Pasadena!
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
