Show Notes
This week on The Lazy CEO, Jane is joined by the founder of Hairification, Jordan Mylius. Hairification has hit $20 million in turnover in just three years and expanded into some of the biggest retailers across Australia and overseas.
But getting onto retail shelves is only half the battle. The real challenge is proving your product works, staying ranged and turning that first retail opportunity into serious growth.
In this episode, we get into: What retailers actually look at once your product is on the shelves, and what good sell-through really looks like. How quickly retailers decide whether a product is working and what can make or break your relationship with them. The hidden costs of major retail that founders often don't see coming.

Elysia came up with the idea after battling mastitis as a new mum and realising there was no easy way to safely warm expressed breast milk while out with her baby. With no product development experience, she decided to create the solution herself. Three years later, Mekė Baby has sold out seven times and landed on the shelves of Baby Bunting.

This week on The Lazy CEO, I’m joined by Ethan Yong, founder of UmamiPapi. Ethan started making chilli oil during COVID while working his first job as a graduate, spending his weekends cooking and packing orders before and after work. A few years later, UmamiPapi is a 7-figure business, stocked in thousands of retailers including every Coles store nationally, exporting to Malaysia and the UAE. And if that wasn’t enough, Gordon Ramsay tasted the chilli oil and gave it his very own verdict: “absolutely fucking delicious.” In this episode, we get into: What it was actually like building a food business from scratch while working a full-time job. The biggest mistakes Ethan made while scaling a bootstrapped business. How to build a brand that stands out in such a competitive category. What it was really like appearing on Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars.
