What to expect when you're not expecting, in business terms that is. Rachel and Liza talk you through how our team turned a 6+ month process into a 3-week process in developing, printing, and packaging two new flavors all to fulfill a promise to land our first national account. Now grab a pint while you listen to how we "lean into our community" and can't thank everyone enough for the support!

Rachel (@rgeicke) answers all your burning questions about how the heck you get a company off the ground. She explains how she got Snow Monkey its first round of funding and what the different avenues are to do it yourself! Dive in to understand what being a "first-time founder" means when it comes to chatting with investors, valuations, VC's, equity, and the rest of those business terms you'll probably understand after this. Plus, if you're looking at starting a business of your own, our team just might be able to answer some of your questions too. 

Rachel & Liza chat with Snow Monkey athlete ambassador Anna Weis, a 21-year old who's on her way to the Olympics. Anna (and her partner Riley) are currently in the favored position to qualify for the USA Olympic Sailing Team on the Narca-17. Hear how she decided to drop out of college to pursue this opportunity and what it's like to stay fit (physically and mentally) on this journey to Tokyo 2020.

Rachel, Liza, & Ruby recap on what 2019 looked like for the Snow Monkey Kingdom and what exciting things they are looking forward to in the future. Everything from traveling nonstop for a week to make it to big sales meetings to how their faces ended up under every lid of a Snow Monkey pint. Happy holidays and a wonderful New Year from the Snow Monkey team!

A glimpse at how each of our executive ladies keep the work/life balance and keep their sanity in check. Everything from endorphins to recharging mitochondria (hi science), listen to Rachel, Liza & Ruby talk sanity and why the importance of balance is crucial to everyone, not just startup businesses.

We asked our Tribe what they think it’s like working in a startup. With the help of Quizlet, we compiled a handful of their questions/beliefs and made digital flashcards to do a little bit of myth-busting of our own.

Last month there were women spread across so many different business publications; women are dominating the world of business like they never have before. The Snow Monkey Executive Team talks about how this inspired us to give you the real, sugar-free behind the scenes podcast of women hustling everyday to run a business, bring America the healthiest food possible, and take on big competition, all while staying sane.
