Business of the Beat

The Power of Networking, Crowdfunding and Equity


Listen Later

Kendra talks with Kim Lewis (@kimandtimlewis) about CurlMix’s (@curlmix) humble beginnings as a DIY subscription box to becoming a sophisticated community-centered operation and fastest-growing privately owned company in the world.  Kim shares background stories about her early flaxseed gel experiment that supercharged sales to a million; clenching rounds of investments through networking and; offering equity to brand supporters. 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.
