Dragons Den - what's it really like? - Cecily Mills - Coconuts Naturally

Fundraising expert Julia Elliott Brown, the CEO of Enter The Arena, talks with Cecily Mills of Coconuts Naturally, who won investors over on Dragons Den, before closing her £180k round via angel investors. Not easy when she lives in Cornwall with two young children. This is a story not to be missed.

Coconuts Naturally is an exciting new brand of award-winning organic, non-dairy ice-cream.

After an initial 'friends & family' investment round, Cecily took the plunge and went on TV's Dragon's Den to raise further finance... but that's just the start of her story.

In this episode, you'll discover...
