Wow awesome, what preservatives do you use for fruit juice
Very helpful content. Please what machine is best for extracting tigernuts milk?
she is saying that she build the manufacturing facility in under 6 months, that cool and all but she forgot to say how expensive that machine is, not only that machine those other machines in the building too! I did my research, and the hyperbaric machine that makes the juice cost almost 2 to 3 million dollars! that is without including the other machine's that package the juices and the bottling machines, the freezer where she keeps the fruits and vegetables, the freezer where they store the juices one they are made, those are extra machinery, and expensive ones too! makes me wonder how much money setting up the entire business costs her, unless she was born in a rich family it's impossible to set up such a huge business with such expensive equipment without having a BIG financial backing.
Agreed!
The common misconception is that you need to put together all the money you need to buy all that equipment to start. Yes, it would be great if you could save up and do that or get your rich family to put up that money for you but these are not the only ways to get capital. If you can put up some money and do what is called a proof of concept, in this case making actual samples of the juice in very small quantities and then getting people to try it and collecting feedback. Then you use that feedback to get "commitments" from supermarkets to stock your products once you have them produced. Then you use both the customer reviews and the B2B commitments to draft a business proposal and Viola, what you have now is what is called a "bankable idea." You take this a bank/ Investment VC firm etc and you will secure funding.
No need to be rich to start a business. You can get a loan to fund your business. That's how most businesses get started.
investors plus rich family plus loan
@@turbospeed08 BS reply !!! You need to be backed by rich family or inherited assets which you can turn into investment capital + Bank loans...no other way!!! I have both great ideas & skills, and I know many people w skills and great ideas, too - WHICH WILL NEVER BE TURNED INTO BUSINESS only due to the fact that we don't have money or we're from F...ed Up economies. It's impossible for such a young woman to start a business which requires at least $2-3M usd - just like that with a snap of fingers.

And there’s no degradation to exogenous food enzymes and good bacteria in the fruit ? Is that scientifically proven ? I’m not calling her a liar but perhaps we’re being misinformed? Asking to learn and understand not to judge
"6 months later we were in whole foods" this is a classic case of privilege thinking they're special for doing something anyone could do, swipe daddy's credit card
$7.99 for a 16 oz organic juice?! That's very cheap compared to others. Impressive.
Nice Hard work by Cute Girl
How do you call yourself an entrepreneur and you have on pants with holes in them ?!
💀😂 Whaat??
@@LucyofLouisiana Yes ..she has more holes than legs in them pants.
Most awful entrepreneurs probably don't have holes in their pants. So for me that's a plus.
Those holes are part of the fashion. She's not poor, she's aiming for the worn pants look.
@@rayfulmer5146 holes are not fashion tho. It's not cool. And I never said she was poor...its not professional attire as a 1st impression and she's on video like that?!?
