Deco Beauty founder Julianna Dahbura is on the Female Founder World podcast with Jasmine Garnsworthy this week. In 2016 Julianna started a nail polish brand with the hopes of building a direct-to-consumer business.

In 2020 she thought of a brilliant pivot... and it paid off in a big way. Since pivoting, she's 3x'ed the already successful business, has launched in retailers like Urban Outfitters, JC Penny, Anthropologie and Free People, and has done collab products with brands like Hello Kitty, Tower28, and Lisa Says Gah.

Georgina Gooley, the founder of Billie, is on the Female Founder World podcast with Jasmine Garnsworthy! Billie's a razor brand, yes.

Adriana Carrig, the founder of Little Words Project, is on the Female Founder World podcast with Jasmine Garnsworthy! At college Adriana started beading bracelets for her friends with uplifting messages. People liked them, she spent $5,000 of her savings to turn it into a business, and realized this could be a big idea that blends profit and purpose. She bootstrapped that business to become Little Words Project, a company that hit $20 million in annual sales last year! She has collaborated with huge brands like Dunkin and Barbie, is worn by Taylor Swift, and is sold in 900+ stores including Target and 12 of their own Little Words project boutiques. I'm always fascinated by people who have the confidence to ask questions and show up for their business at such a young age, and build into something impactful. Adriana has some interesting thoughts on this in the show—what it takes to overcome that self-doubt, plus the specific approach that she took and that she believes made her business successful.

Rachel Liverman, founder of Glowbar, is on the Female Founder World podcast with Jasmine Garnsworthy! Through the height of the pandemic Rachel Liverman did the impossible. She launched and scaled her brick and mortar business, a clinical 30 minute facial bar, Glowbar, across New York and beyond. Since launching in 2019 Rachel has raised $10M, launched 10 Glowbar locations, and now employs over 150 people, including a huge team of aestheticians. Rachel's first step for bringing her vision to life was to raise money from investors. After getting 100 'no's' from investors, she finally closed her fundraise. In this episode Rachel shares how she took a non-traditional route to raising money from investors (no really, no one does what she did!), and how she handled all that rejection in the beginning. With the first $1M investment in the bank, Rachel opened her first Glowbar in New York. Their marketing approach was very grassroots, and it's an approach they still use today, including partnering with local businesses and posting fliers in the neighborhood.

Leigh Campbell, cofounder of Brillo Beauty, is on the Female Founder World podcast with Jasmine Garnsworthy! Leigh is an OG beauty girlie. She hosts Australia's largest beauty podcast called YouBeauty, which also has a Facebook group with more than 75,000 members, was Beauty Director at Cosmopolitan Magazine Australia, then Head of Lifestyle at Huffington Post in Australia, and is now at Mamamia—a huge women's publishing and podcasting brand in Australia. Recently she cofounded a beauty brand called Brillo Beauty just five months ago, and we spend a lot of time in this ep talking about how she spotted a gap in the market in a very crowded beauty industry, finding a cofounder, overcoming her fear to start her own business, and how Brillo got traction. It's not often we get to hear from someone really on the ground floor of something that I think is going to be huge, and I think it's really helpful for anyone who is in the early days of their own founder story. Leigh and her cofounder invested $260,000 of their own money to start Brillo, and made $180,000 back in the first three months of business just through sales on the website. We have a full breakdown of how they spent that first investment too: the website cost $5k, formulation and all the testing you need to launch a beauty product was $30k, their first run of product including packaging was $150k, they spend another $50k on branding and content, $10k on legal and admin, and another $15k or so on other random startup costs.
