Ashley, the founder of My Healthy Soap, started her Cosmetics brand as a desperate late-night experiment in her kitchen. What began as a simple desire to find safer ingredients for her baby quickly evolved from a stressful farmer's market Side hustle into a massive $320,000-a-year operation.
In this episode, Ashley breaks down how she went from mixing lye in thrift store pots to building a full-scale manufacturing facility on her own property—without ever spending a dollar on paid ads. She shares her raw, consistent Digital marketing playbook that organically attracted 800,000 followers across social media, and how she leveraged a "Soap of the Month" subscription club to secure $10,000 a month in reliable Passive income.
In this episode, you'll learn:
