Hey everyone, thanks for tuning into this special episode of WorkParty Money Moves: Founder’s Framework. In this series, successful founders will share their perspective on a startup funding scenario: They’ve just received a $10,000 small business loan to start a business, let’s see how they build a framework to spend it!

For our fourth installment in the series, I have Julissa Prado here, founder & CEO of Rizos Curls, a clean hair care line aimed at embracing and celebrating the beauty of curls, coils, and waves everywhere! After years of making her own curly cocktail and helping her community embrace their curls, Julissa decided to use her life savings to launch her own hair care line Rizos Curls. The result has been a line of products made with high-quality ingredients that works across all different hair types.

As a leading force in the beauty industry, Julissa is widely recognized with award wins as Cosmopolitan’s 2021 New C-Suite Winner, and named Entrepreneur of the Year in 2020 by Beauty Independent. She is also an active national speaker with roles at Harvard University, The Girl Boss Rally, Create & Cultivate, TED, and many more!

I’m so excited to have Julissa here to share more on her journey and how she’d break down the $10,000 as a product-based business!
