September 11 2001 By the time they got it two months later says Ryan we had 16 in the bank and personally owed 300 000 Seeking a national retailer 零售商 proved just as troublesome The friends set their

selling big volumes we were profitable just on a smaller scale They won over Target Consumers were hooked on the natural things and wonderful fragrance Today the partners sell 130 products in more
