Hope you have enjoyed the full episode with Ardean Miller, Founder of Mah Melanin and took away some learning about the readiness it takes to launch in retail stores.

On this mini drop, here are 3 powerful questions I asked Ardean specifically about launching into retail stores - Enjoy! (and learn).

  1. If another founder told you they wanted to start exploring getting into retail stores, what would you tell them they should do first?
  2. What would you say are the benefits of starting in local retail stores vs going direct to big box?
  3. What advice would you give to emerging brands looking to build a business that stands out?
