375. The Rollercoaster of Entrepreneurship: Andra Tashjian’s Journey with LunaKai Lash

LashCast

In this episode of LashCast, we sit down with Andra Tashjian from LunaKai Lash to discuss the highs and lows of building her lash brand. Andra shares her journey of creating products, a process she found fun and easy, but navigating the marketing and messaging side of the business proved to be a significant challenge.

Andra opens up about her costly experience with a marketing company that charged her $25K and delivered nothing in return. Despite winning a lawsuit against them, she was unable to collect the money. Currently facing slow business and declining sales, Andra has had to make tough decisions, including moving her operations from a dedicated office space back to her living room to cut costs.

Tune in to hear Andra's candid story of resilience, the lessons she’s learned, and her insights on managing a lash brand in challenging times. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the realities of running a lash brand.

Since we recorded this episode, Andra has decided to sell LunaKai Lash. If you are interested in buying it, please contact Andra at [e-mail].
