Tastefully Simple
Blashack Strahan started her gourmet food company with $6,000 in
savings, a backyard shed for storage, and a pool table as a packing
station.
In her own words: “I remember sitting outside one day, thinking we
were three months behind on our house payment, I had two employees I
couldn’t pay, and I ought to get a real job. But then I thought, No,
this is your dream. Recommit and get to work.”
She had the idea to sell at taste-testing parties, and sales began
slowly picking up. In 12 years, Tastefully Simple has grown into a $120 million dollar business. ()
This Re-Post of the story on Jill Blachack Strahan came from the website BusinessPundit.com.
