Donna and Lauren Johanson: Chivas Skin Care
Manage episode 160494546 series 1089501
Sure, you love your mom. But could you go into business with her? The mother-daughter team of Donna and Lauren Johanson have turned their family goat farm into a cosmetics business based on products made with all-natural ingredients and goat milk. I wondered what it’s like to turn a fun hobby into a high-end business that distributes through more than 100 stores around the country. They have 45 SKUs and counting; we learn about the art of mixing scents, naming products, and developing new ideas without losing focus. I was also curious to hear more about their partnership with Lionsgate to make a branded "POPI" soap line for the TV show Orange is the New Black. And, we hear their secrets for building a family business -without driving each other crazy. More information: https://makeitinla.org/donnalaurenjohanson
