Through their narrative, we learn how the global shift in health consciousness and Jake's personal aftermath of a ski accident converged with Stephanie's entrepreneurial spirit, leading to the birth of a brand that's not just about supplements but about seizing opportunity in the face of adversity.Timestamps(00:00) The Rise of Mushroom Supplements(06:43) From Mushroom Enthusiasts to Business Owners(17:22) Sourcing and Extracting Quality Mushrooms(30:21) Strategies for Shopify Store Success(45:20) Mastering Social Media Marketing and Troop Show LinksTroop - Use code UNOFFICIAL20ReBuyLive RecoverRussell Bronson's DotCom SecretsSponsorsFree 30-day trial of Zipify OCUIntelligemsNever miss an episodeSubscribe wherever you get your podcastsJoin Kurt's newsletterHelp the showAsk a question in The Unofficial Shopify Podcast Facebook GroupLeave a reviewSubscribe wherever you get your podcastsWhat's Kurt up to?See our recent work at EthercycleSubscribe to our YouTube ChannelApply to work with Kurt to grow your store.
