Drybar Founder Alli Webb on Scaling a $200+ Million Dollar Business without a College Degree
Manage episode 412932958 series 2090100
Alli Webb was a stay-at-home mom for five years when she realized she needed to get out of the house more. So she started a mobile hair business. She’d go house-to-house and offer $40 blowouts to moms in LA, something that pretty much no one was doing at the time. She soon opened her first brick and mortar and called it Drybar. 100+ locations later, Alli sold the company for more than $200 million. All without a college degree or formal business training.
In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Alli shares:
- The sunshine and beach-haired days of her childhood growing up in Boca Raton
- How having parents who operated a small biz gave her life lessons in entrepreneurship
- Why it felt intoxicating building and scaling Drybar, plus the mental cost that came with it
- How her divorce, son’s visit to rehab, and burnout led to her book, “The Messy Truth”
- Why she felt intimidated when fundraising + curating the Drybar board – and how she got through it
