129. From Laid Off to an $85K/Month Business Started in Her Kitchen
Shan Greggs started her candle business with her final paycheck ($467) after she was laid off from her job at United Airlines. That’s when Shan decided to become her own boss. Today, she is the founder and CEO of a wildly successful candle company that’s generating $85K per month.
Starting out, Shan made candles in her kitchen and sold them out of the back of her car. Now, her candles are available online and in stores around the country. We uncover how she was able to scale from candle making in her kitchen, to a brick and mortar store landing deals with retailers.
