Feel like things aren't happening fast enough??
Let me help you change your perspective...
Emma Grede launched Good American at age 35
By that point, she'd spent more than a DECADE building relationships and understanding the fashion industry
Emily Weiss spent FOUR years writing a beauty blog (Into The Gloss) before launching a single product
When she launched she knew exactly what her customers wanted - and now Glossier is worth over $1bn
Sophia Amoruso started selling vintage clothes on eBay in 2006
Over TEN+ years she grew those listings into a 100M+ business
(Then in 2016 Nasty Gal filed for bankruptcy - forcing her to start over from scratch!)
Kathryn Minshew's first startup failed. Then she was rejected by investors over 100 times while trying to build The Muse.
Today, The Muse has helped millions of people find jobs.
Keep going!!!
Persistency pays off!!!
