Barbara Corcoran Inc. was founded by real estate entrepreneur Barbara Corcoran in
2005 as the latest endeavor in her high-profile, multi-faceted, and highly successful
career. This multi-media company builds on Barbara’s growing television presence as well
as her business experience, combining television production and business consultancy in
a one-of-a-kind package that taps Barbara’s many talents.

As founder of The Corcoran Group, Barbara used her ingenuity, quick wits, and solid
instincts to turn a $1,000 loan into a multi-billion dollar business. Barbara sold the
company for over $70 million in 2001. In the 28 years Barbara ran the company, she
honed her skills in marketing, negotiating, innovating, and surviving in the lean times
and thriving in the good times – everything you need to know to establish, run, and grow
a business.

After selling the company, Barbara put her entrepreneurial knowledge down on paper,
penning the bestselling, unconventional business book IF YOU DON’T HAVE BIG
BREASTS, PUT RIBBONS ON YOUR PIGTAILS. The book is aptly sub-titled And
Other Business Lessons I Learned From My Mom, as Barbara credits her mom’s good
sense and positive vision with giving her the tools she needed to succeed so fabulously in
the notoriously cutthroat world of New York real estate.

As a much-in-demand motivational speaker, and now a best-selling author, Barbara
transitioned from her role as head of The Corcoran Group to that of popular television
personality. Today, Barbara is a regular contributor to the Fox News Network and ABC’s
Good Morning America and The View. Her informative and fun segments are produced
entirely in-house at Barbara Corcoran Inc.

On the consulting front, Barbara Corcoran Inc. helps clients with businesses looking to
grow and applies Barbara’s singular perspective, innate business acumen, and years of
hard-earned experience to put those clients at the forefront of their field.

Barbara Corcoran’s credentials include straight D’s in high school and college and twenty
jobs by the time she turned twenty-three. It was her next job, however, that would make
her one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country, when she borrowed $1,000
from her boyfriend and quit her job as a waitress to start a tiny real estate company in New
York City. Over the next twenty-five years, she’d parlay that $1,000 loan into a
five-billion-dollar real estate business.

Barbara is the author of IF YOU DON’T HAVE BIG BREASTS, PUT RIBBONS ON
YOUR PIGTAILS, an unlikely business book that has become a national best-seller. In it,
Barbara credits her struggles in school and her mother’s kitchen-table wisdom for her
imagination and her quick wittedness in the business world. The book is a fresh, frank
look at how to succeed in life and business and is as heartwarming as it is smart and
motivating.

In 2005 Barbara’s entrepreneurial spirit prompted her to start a new venture, the
television production and business consulting company Barbara Corcoran Inc. She is a
regular contributor to the Fox News Network and ABC’s Good Morning America and The
View.

As a speaker, Barbara brings her front-lines experience and infectious energy to every
person she meets. Motivational, inspirational, and sometimes outrageous, Barbara
Corcoran’s tell-it-like-it-is attitude is a refreshing approach to success.
