How Coachella and an Old Postal Truck Helped Launch Ice Cream Brand Coolhaus https://entrepidinc.news/coolhaus-ice-cream #startup
The founders of the beloved sweet treat started small and scrappy — and now they’re ready to take over the ice cream aisle.
In the Women Entrepreneur series My First Moves, we talk to founders about the pivotal moment when they decided to turn their business idea into a reality — and the first steps they took to make that happen.
Natasha Case has long been fascinated by the intersection of food and design. While studying architecture and design, Case was always pulled in the direction of food, and saw it as a medium to talk about design and create additional access around the discipline.

Surprisingly, the employees who had no experience were outperforming those who had 10 to 15 years of sales experience, says Pachter.
