Summary

Today in the guest chair is Alicia Scott, the Founder of Range Beauty.

Fun Fact: I first met Alicia Scott, today’s Side Hustle Pro guest, in 2019 when I was a speaker at the Summit 21 conference. I invited the audience to raise their hand to come up on stage and share their side hustle with the audience. Like a true hustler, Alicia was READY and was the first hand that shot up (scroll through to see the pic of her on stage).

Fast forward 2 years and I am not the least bit surprised to see the AMAZING growth of Alicia’s brand, Range Beauty.

Alicia founded Range Beauty because she noticed the lack of shades available during photo shoots and runway shows. Instead of asking, “Why can’t there be better options for us?,” she created what she envisioned, a clean beauty brand for the forgotten shades.

In today’s episode, she gets into:

  • How she went about figuring out where to find a manufacturer
  • How she figured out how to create these actual products
  • How she is kicking down doors and raising capital for her business
