From Factory Worker To Multi-Million Pound Businesses Owner | Founder @ London Lash Pro | Hanna Putjato

Starting a £4 million NET turnover business from your living room sounds too good to be true… but Hanna Putjato made it her reality when she spotted a gap in the eyelash extension distribution market. Originally moving to the UK unable to speak any English, Hanna trained as a lash technician with the ambition of learning the language, never dreaming that she would walk away as the Founder & Managing Director of London Lash Pro. 

In this episode, we were joined by Paul Waite, Director of Rowan Executive Search as a special guest co-host alongside Chris. Hanna talked us through her incredible journey from factory worker to multi-million pound businesses owner and her self-taught approach to entrepreneurship. She discusses her unique attitude to problem solving as a founder and how she built a killer marketing strategy off the back of a Google search! 

As we take a step back from the technical, this episode dives into developing business strategies as an industry novice, as well as the effects of Brexit and COVID-19 on international supply chains and the power of having the right idea at the right time.
