Summary

Kimarie Santiago is a Stay-at-home-mom turned salt company pioneer celebrating 15 years of business

Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Success is a marathon, not a sprint. Real growth takes time, resilience, and preparation for the unexpected.

2. Don't scale until you're busting at the seams. Growth should be sustainable, not forced—it must be funded and supported by strong direct-to-consumer sales.

3. Amazon isn't your only path. The future of ecommerce is in platforms that value small businesses—build the ecosystem you wish existed.
