About the Event

Get ready for the next Crunchmoms In The Boardroom Mentor Series, featuring the incredible Sarah Jones! In this exclusive members only session, Sarah will take us behind the scenes of building and exiting Sprii, sharing invaluable insights on starting, running, and growing an e-commerce business. She'll dive into the pros and cons of e-commerce at the time, the challenges of fundraising, and the realities of managing cash flow.

Ever wondered when a founder starts making money or how to manage cash flow? Sarah will shed light on these crucial aspects, along with the real-world struggles of running a business and taking a salary as a founder. She'll also share the tough decision-making process behind closing a business, offering tips and lessons learned along the way.

As a founder and mother of five kids, Sarah knows a thing or two about balancing business with family life. She’ll reveal the systems she put in place to manage both successfully. Plus, learn how she came up with the concept of Rayne and tested the model, bringing her vision to life once again.
