Turning Lemons into Lemonade: Fruitful Day’s Story - MC Luijckx

My First Business

Ever wondered how a fruit delivery business did great during a tough time like the pandemic?🍓 Welcome back to the My First Business Podcast - this is a mini-episode, where I take some the best parts of my interviews with phenomenal entrepreneurs and chop it up for you like a snack.😋 In this quick episode, we're talking about MC Luijckx, who started Fruitful Day in Dubai.🐪 She shares how things got really tough when they lost almost all their big customers because of the pandemic. But guess what? They didn't give up. Instead, they changed things up and began delivering fruits directly to people's homes. That made a big difference! People loved it, and their home delivery became popular.🤩 What's cool is that they didn't spend forever planning this change. They just listened to what their customers needed and followed their instincts. MC learned that when tough times hit, it's super important to listen to what people want.👂 This podcast episode tells us how Fruitful Day didn't just survive but did really well during a hard time.
