They say necessity is the mother of all invention. In Helen Hall’s case it’s also the secret to her success. Helen started making a nutrient dense smoothie supplement for her clients as a way to take the guesswork out of smoothie making. What started out as a small side hustle slinging homemade Blender Bombs in plastic baggies has now exploded (all puns intended) into an empire and Helen candidly shares the truth behind it all.
Helen tells Moira how she only had $300 in her bank account when she started getting more orders than she could fill. Clients wives, co workers and family members were all clamoring to get their hands on these magic bombs. Not only are they packed with over 12 different types of plant based fiber but they keep you full, taste great and optimize your health.
Helen’s honesty about the difficult lessons you learn when you own a fledgling business are relatable and packed with delicious insight that any entrepreneur can use. Listen in to hear all about the process of getting a product onto the shelves of big box retailers like Whole Foods, Wal-Mart, Amazon etc and why she would not recommend hiring your boyfriend.
