Every week we learn from 7, 8, and 9-figure female founders to understand their blueprint in business when it comes to money, marketing and mistakes. Women like Desiree Verdejo, the founder of Hyper. After leaving her career as an attorney, Desiree left the 9-5 to create the Sephora for Black Women which eventually led her to creating Hyper. We’re chatting through a bunch of insightful learnings from this business; like the power of PR and how to use grants to access capital…Desiree's key piece of advice when it comes to the funding piece of the business is to be really thoughtful about when you fundraise, how you fundraise, and why you're doing it. There are so many different types of capital available right now and each will have entirely different consequences for you and your business.And on that note!
