What It's About
Revisiting a seller of luxurious satin pillowcases featured back in episode #143.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1125
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. So far in these features we’ve had a New York City musician with a blog teaching jazz that becomes a multiple six-figure business (Ep. 1111), and a Denver woman who leads food tours for up to 700 people a month (Ep. 1118). Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from someone with a sleepy idea. Wait, that sounds bad … how about someone with a savvy idea to make dreamy profits in the form of satin pillowcases? Yeah, that’s better. We first profiled Dale Janée long ago (Ep. 143) on the show and then in the 100 SIDE HUSTLES book. What’s happened since? Listen to today's episode to hear Dale's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
- Savvy Sleepers: Check out Dale's satin pillow line on her website.
- Organic Loungewear Becomes Sleeper Sensation: An Aussie woman develops a line of cotton sleepwear based on Fair Trade practices.
- Insomniac Dreams Up Herbal Hustle: After struggling with sleeplessness for years, an account executive learns to make herbal remedies—then sells them to other tired people, earning up to $3,000/month on the side.
- “The Little Mermaid” Inspires Six-Figure Sleeping Bag Biz: A special effects artists turns his Hollywood trade into an oceanic brand that makes unique sleeping bags for kids.
