010 Anna Hamilton & Kate Samson | Starting Cedar & Stone, Working with investors and horror stories!
Episode description
Thinking about starting your own business but too nervous to take the plunge out of fear that you may fail? Defying those odds, Anna Hamilton and Kate Samson made their creative concepts a reality and brought to us Cedar and Stone Botanicals and Nectar Juice House. The sisterly duo have always sworn by the famous words of Richard Branson “Say YES, then learn how to do it later!”. By staying true to this saying, they have transformed their lives and taken the world of small business by storm!
Kate and Anna take us on their journey through the highs and lows that come with building a business, creating 9 products to 9000 with a thermo-mix and how auditioning for Shark Tank landed an investor without having stepped foot on the show! As much of a crack up as these two down to earth sisters are, their story is equally as inspirational to trust yourself and follow your dreams!
