It was a messy affair that resulted in the selling off my baby piece by piece to pay back distributors and customers who entrusted their money to us. Frankly, it was one of the most difficult times in my life, but lessons were learned from that experience that enabled me to help other companies avoid some of the same mistakes.***Began this start-up from a dorm room in 1995 and built it into a $30M Internet venture with over 110,000 product sku’s.
