Friends That Invest · Investing Tips from a Successful Angel Investor | Jaclyn Johnson · 27 Apr 2026 podcast

So at the time I had not even, Crane Coltrane was barely a business, but I had my agency business.

So my agency business was like a multimillion dollar business.

And basically, though, I was my whole life was like expensed on that business at that point because I was running it.

I had clients.

I had this.

So like I wasn't on paper making a lot of money personally, but like the business was doing extremely well and I was reinvesting and hiring and doing all these different things.

And so I decided I was like, I'll write a $10,000 check through my LLC, essentially that like I run all my other businesses there.

So at that point, I had my blogger income.

So I was making money as a blogger.

And then I also had my agency income.

And so the way I treated my blogger income was really as like, fun money.

And like, this wasn't like a ton of money, I would maybe make like $20,000 a year off of that, like brand deals or whatever at that point.

I mean, this was like early, early days of blogging.

And I basically was like, I'm just going to take this brand deal I did and I'm going to put it towards this investment.

And the reason I invested was like a few different things.

One was I really believed in Jen and Steph and like their vision and the way that they were sort of thinking about building this business I thought was really unique.

Two was like they had the track record of like being at Warby Parker.

They understood supply chain, all those different things.

And that also the Warby Parker founder was investing.

And so I was like, wow, that's like a huge signal that this is like something that's really cool.
