Starting a vegan business is not for the faint of heart. Building a new business can be scary and risky, but every successful entrepreneur will tell you that it’s worth it.

Today’s podcast is part 1 of a vegan business series focused on plant-based entrepreneurs.  You might be saying why now? Because the coronavirus is sparking a plant-based sales explosion, and this could be a good time to turn your passion into a vegan business. 

Additionally, many big successful businesses started in a downturn like Netflix.  Legend has it that Netflix founder, Reed Hastings, was motivated to start an online DVD rental by mail after incurring a $40.00 late fee from Blockbuster. 

So, in my opinion, anything is possible. 

In Podcast #90, we speak with a first-time vegan business owner Emily Edwards about her entrepreneur journey along with:

• How to start a vegan business focused on food
• Testing the viability of a new product
• Business plan
• Costs to create a new business
• Sourcing ingredients
• Pricing
• Social responsibility
