This week, Connie Lo—Co-Founder of Three Ships Beauty, an effective sustainable sourced natural skincare brand—dives deep into key learnings as a first time founder: don’t grow too fast, be careful with hiring, care about efficiency first and foremost, and block dedicated time for fundraising! 

Connie also dives into her co-founder’s health scare that caused them both to adapt to a new way of working and a new mindset of ‘working smarter not harder’ along with a ‘no hustle culture’. She shares that when they opened themselves up to life outside of work and their company, they actually achieved greater success and drove an increase in revenue and repeat customers. 

Bio: Founded by Connie Lo and Laura Burget in 2017, Three Ships Beauty set sail creating handmade formulations in Connie’s apartment with the intention of stepping into the shoes of consumers and crafting the most natural, effective, and transparent skincare products. At Three Ships, Connie spearheads strategic partnerships, vendor + retailer management, brand strategy, and sales. When Connie is not focusing on Three Ships, you can find her traveling the world, hitting up the hottest restaurants and bars, practicing healthy living, and spending time with her husband, Jason.
