Today we’re learning from Karen Danudjaja, the founder of Blume.Blume is what happens when you pair the benefits of the wellness aisle and the experience of a cafe. They’ve bootstrapped the company to 10M in sales making your favorite cafe lattes with the magic of superfoods from Vancouver Canada.We’re talking through that first year of business and how she approached getting her first 1000 customers, bootstrapping the brand until now, and her learnings from her first raise of $2m.Something pivotal during that raising period is that Karen realized that she was someone who wanted to do everything. Save every single penny. So sales and customer service herself. In fact, every role possible herself. It's crazy what automation on just a few of those things came to do for the scale of the business. For example, when the first hire in customer service joined the team it made such a huge difference to be able to delve into strategy, sales, and development. You can never do everything, but if you surround yourself with people who want to help you succeed you're onto a real winner.The founder also delved into a couple of tips regarding their influencer marketing strategy. They found this unique audience that supported women and small businesses and wanted to be part of something from the beginning. This meant their ambassador community runs more of the business than meets the eye, they’re super involved. With this, you're able to expand by working directly with people that align with your brand mission.And whilst we're here, just a quick shout out to all the amazing humans listening into these episodes.

 How to bootstrap a brand to $10M in sales, with Blume’s founder Karen Danudjaja (part 1) 

I am joined by Karen Danudjaja. She is the founder of Blume! Blume is a superfood wellness brand. Their mission is to be your best friend in wellness with simple products that are easy to use and build rituals on. Their blends make delicious lattes that are refined sugar-free, certified organic and boosted with superfoods. They are also based in Vancouver, BC, and have a plastic-neutral commitment.  I've been obsessed with Blume lattes for a while now and I had to get Karen on to chat all about the business. We talk about growing a company of 1 to 13 females, how she grew the online presence to over 100K followers, creating new recipes, setting up work boundaries, how she got Blume in over 300 cafes in Canada, and where she sees the company down the line. Also she shares her *least* fav Blume latte and a new flavour coming soon :o Loved chatting with Karen &lt;3
