finally someone who got super rich with a great idea/product who admits that's still also a lot of luck to achieve it. Most billionaires or multimillionaires are like "everyone can achieve that" but most of them had the luck to be born in a rich family to get the capital, meet the right person at the right moment or whatever else. In his case without the 75k from his mates parents he may have never achieved it because another company could have learned about it before he had the chance to sell it to the bigger stores. It's still 100% his achievement but there are millions who have awesome ideas but only 1% of them will really have the luck you need not to get stomped before you can realize your idea.

I know what you mean, that there are elements of a persons success that are based on luck or circumstance, but I wouldn’t necessarily call it luck that he got a $75k loan. Most businesses need loans or investors to grow, so it’s part of the job of growing a company to find those lenders/investors. If he didn’t get it from his friend’s parents and he was motivated (which it seems he was), he could have likely found a different lender/investor.

As an owner of a similar nut butter brand, distrupting another area of the category, I have to say that I love his passion and how he was able to sum it up in a nutshell (pun intended). We are probably where Justin was in 2012-13 talking to WF, Wegmans, Target, testing out products in farmers markets across SoCal and getting traction nationwide but if I had to stress one thing from this, it’s that you gotta be in the right place at the right time. Hard work is expected but it means nothing without luck. And you increase your luck by being out there and staying relevant and consistent. So if you’re reading this and trying something on the side, keep doing it. It only takes one good person to look into your direction sometimes and it just snowballs after that. Good luck!!

Ultimately, that's why the stories of so many of the great entrepreneurs include failed businesses you've never heard of in the beginning. The lesson is, to get lucky... Keep trying, keeping taking shots. Eventually, one of them might hit their mark. And really, even in Justin's story: he had put so much into it with the initial peanut butter products and they weren't covering costs. At that stage, the business was on a trajectory to fail if he stopped pushing. It was only by essentially taking another shot with the squeeze packs that he truly got lucky and found the success that would inspire this story to be written at all.

He was "lucky" to have the right idea at the right time. There was not so much competition at that time and it was easier to place a new product. The other main leg on his success was the initial credit of 75K for a roommate's parents. I guess banks were not interested and he had no funds himself to finance that. This is where most dreams shatter. Unfortunately. He seems to be a very nice humble down to earth guy.

I agree, just as the non-meat wave was starting to peak. In regarding to loans: Bank I don't think would touch this stuff. They want slam dunk businesses for loans or business with lots of cap-ex/equipment that they can repo if things go south. What I notice that lots of these business need the "Bank of Family and Friends" to get that initial funding. It appears to be important to have a strong network and base. Not all come from families with lots of resources, so friends and other people in the network can bridge that gap if needed.

Well, if you think about it you can mitigate the risk pretty much. If you flop, you're not gonna lose the whole 75000. You buy a second-hand machine for 75000 in order to check the viability of the product. If it sucks and you never get any sales, you re-sell the machine for around the same price, or a little less. But it's definitely worth it to attempt, even if it will cost you like 5000 dollars of savings when you resell it a little lower. Have to take that risk. It's just that most people see a big sum of money and are too scared. Investing 75000 without any backup plan would be stupid.

75k is a ton of money why are you “pretty sure” he needed more? People literally start multi million food brands with like 3-4 thousand

Not to mention it was 75k in 2006 ... thats like 120k in today's dollars believe it or not. It wasn't a small amount of money then or now.

@@Maracanazo50 $75K is peanuts in regards to a Business Investment. Marketing Alone will eat that up in a day. That don't include all the Business expenses And no successful company especially in food is starting with ONLY $3k-$4K start up capital. Might as well believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy if you think that is real
