From a bad epidural, to $100k in sales!
As a serial entrepreneur (from a home bakery, MLMs, and an online clothing boutique) who is also a stay at home mom, I needed a business that I could do at home but didn’t need me to babysit it every hour of every day. I’ve seen some success throughout my previous ventures, but nothing that I could sustain without being involved constantly. I found the rainmakers through a Facebook ad while I was on strict bed rest after the birth of our third baby. What really drew me in was the idea of leveraging Amazons customer base. It was exhausting for me to constantly be bringing the EYES and the CUSTOMERS every single day. I was lucky to have found them right before they did their annual live recording of their challenge. The live energy was amazing! I jumped into the mastermind immediately, ran like crazy, and loved every moment of it! I’m so grateful for the guidance of my pod coach who dissected every option I brought up explained why they wouldn’t potentially work. It led me to the product I brought to market. In our first year in the mastermind, I was able to get my trademark approved, launch a product with all my A+ content and PPC done by myself, and hit $100k in sales. I stacked the deck and was able to grow my branded Instagram to 25k followers and 2k on my weekly email list. Currently I am working very closely with Truly Free Market and am so excited for all the possibilities there! We’ve seen our fair share of bumps in the road in the form of selling out and an aggressive highjacker. But it hasn’t deterred us yet. While we haven’t pocketed anything, we’ve been investing all profit to grow our stock and will continue to save so we can launch another product. We are looking forward to the inner circle so we can continue to build our business in an attractive way for a buyout in the future. We bootstrapped this entire operation and I’m so glad we have never been in the red. We get a pay out every single week, our inventory is paid for through our sales, and our single, business low limit credit card is continually being paid off without stressing about where the money would come from. This process has opened a lot of doors to business skills that I haven’t learned previously and I’m so excited to do it all again with another product soon!
