Summary

Today’s episode is a REWIND episode with Kim Lewis, the Founder of CurlMix.

Kim and her husband Tim are two entrepreneurs I really admire. They are teammates in life, love, and business and their hard work has really paid off.

Since this episode originally aired, they’ve grown exponentially, appeared on Shark Tank, turned down a $400,000 offer from the Sharks, and have turned CurlMix into a company with a $12 million dollar valuation.

In this episode, you’ll hear them in the early days, before they zeroed in on MAKING products and were still selling do it yourself kits.
