About the session
What you’ll take away
Hana opens the day with the honest version of how a hobby turned into a business with nine staff: the orders she shouldn't have taken, the trade show that nearly sank her and the one spreadsheet she'd keep if she lost the rest.
Expect real numbers, a few mistakes she'd rather you didn't repeat and a clear idea of when to say yes to wholesale.
