In this episode of the Gamechangers podcast, I’m talking to Milicent Armstrong, founder of Artemis Design Co., the brand behind those extremely cool kilim carpet shoes you're seeing everywhere. Milicent chats about how she's grown the company from $5,000 in seed money and remains completely self-funded to this day. She talks about launching her company with no website and no storefront, building her brand initially through word of mouth, pop-ups and a few great wholesale accounts. She chats about the single press hit that caused her entire website to completely sell out in under five minutes and how she's hiring the exact right people to take her company to the next level. Enjoy!
