“You can have a lot of fun along the way.”– Ariana Chedraui
Ariana Chedraui (@arianachedraui) is the founder of Vino Cards: a wine-tasting flashcard game for beginners to learn about wine pairings.
Ariana had been thinking about the product in Feb 2018, launched a Kickstarter in July 2018 which raised $5,125, before going full-time in November 2019. Since then, the Pandemic became a thing that has thrown up interesting challenges for her fledgling business!
In our wide-ranging conversation, we discuss how Ariana came up with the idea for these wine flashcards; her experiences of ditching the 9-5 and going solo since November 2019; how she would have approached her 6-month runway differently; useful Amazon FBA tools; and so much more!
