How The Little Potion Co made their first Million Dollars in sales

3 short years ago….was when I first met sisters Alicia and Jacinta from @thelittlepotionco.

The Little Potion Co (a mindful magic potion making brand) was a side hustle for them both and they made everything from Jacinta’s back shed and by hand.

Now 3 years later they are over a Million dollars in sales and it is testament to how much they have continued to evolve, to listen to experts and to their customers, to invest, to take risks and to thank goodness understand their margins and pricing!!!

What I would say are keys to their success?
– They have multiple sales channels and markets (DTC, Wholesale, USA, AUS, NZ…)
– They have a strong USP and keep evolving it and adapting and editing the range.
– Marketing is in many forms. Not just one channel. Influencers, Social, UGC, Paid ads, Collaborations, Print, SEO, Email marketing….
-They started outsourcing and hiring for their team.
-They spend time ON the business and not just IN (we can all get better at this one!)
– They know their financials and work at always improving their margins and pricing structures.
Of course there are many other factors, and we chat through their story and journey today on the podcast.

And we all know that having top line sales does not mean you have this money in the bank and it should not be the only thing you focus on, but it is also great to celebrate milestones along the way!!
