What Ashley said: 

Constantly, as an entrepreneur you have to learn everything. You end up feeling stupid and crazy all the time. You have to hang out with a lot of other entrepreneurs who all feel stupid and crazy too…

The first question you should ask yourself is does the world need another x?

Don’t want to grow to big too fast, because apparently that’s the kiss of death.

Ashley worked with a food broker to help her get noticed by larger stores.
