Episode 143: Zero to CEO: From dropout to multi-million dollar business with Holly Daniels Christensen

In this episode of Zero to CEO, I speak to Founder & CEO of Dune Jewelry, Holly Daniels Christensen about how she went from a dropout to a multi-million dollar business. Do you dream about starting a business but you don't have a college degree or specific training? Don't dream, do it! The founder of Dune Jewelry left home at 15 years old, and never looked back. She held a variety of jobs with stints as a zookeeper, pharmacy technician, promotional model, bartender, cellphone, car and cruise salesperson. She also spent 14 successful years as a top agent in Boston’s highly competitive real estate market. This unique entrepreneur who proved she was unafraid of hard work was voted 2016 Woman-Owned Business of the Year for Massachusetts and New England by the Small Business Association (SBA). In 2018, Inc. magazine honored Dune Jewelry as No. 2590 on its 37th annual Inc. 5000 List which is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. Currently, Dune Jewelry is the one-and-only experiential jewelry brand in the world. As a thank you to my listeners enter code Bootstrap for 15% off your order on dunejewelry.com
