Advice Line with Shazi Visram of Happy Family Organics
Today’s callers: Daisy in the United Kingdom looks to grow her barefoot shoe brand across the pond in the United States. Then Rachel in Pennsylvania considers private labeling for her protein-packed sprinkles. And Andrew in California wonders whether he should seek investment for his pleasantly-scented soil additive.
Plus, Shazi discusses why entrepreneurship is one of the most creative outlets a person can have.
