Pet Chinchillas Save Family Business

Josh Paulson acquired his grandfather's pet accessories company in 2015 when it was losing $25,000 per month. Three months later it broke even. The company, Quality Cage, manufactures products for pet owners and veterinarians.

Paulson shares his journey in this episode, addressing custom manufacturing, organic marketing, and more.
