Description

I interviewed today’s guest a while back about this brilliant idea he had. The company was called Diamond Candles and my audience of entrepreneurs was blown away with the fact that he was doing a million dollars a month in revenue from fricking candles.
So many people were excited by it that some actually went off and said, “I can do that.”
Justin Winter, the founder, told me it actually hurt his business. We’ll talk about that in the interview.
Today, Justin is the founder of Boostopia, an all-in-one support operations platform. We’ll also talk about why he’s moved away from candles and on to SaaS.
