What if you could take a single product idea and build a real business from it, even with zero e-commerce experience?

In this episode of High Voltage Business Builders, Neil Twa sits down with community member and entrepreneur Ashley Klaus, who scaled a simple scar-care product into a fast-growing brand doing over half a million dollars in revenue.
