She gives tips for building a brand with a Co-Founder and the success that led her to be named #93 on the Inc 5000 list, be featured in Forbes 30 under 30, Shark Tank, Oprah’s Favorite Things and achieve many more accolades.
“I want my customers to feel that they are creating value with every purchase they make. Crowdfunding allows my customers to earn shares of the company so that when they are buying Curlmix on their monthly subscription, they are also getting the equity.” - @KimandTimlewis See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
