Here's the full list:
1. Start a hangover cure product ($2.4M/year)
Eddie Huai from New York, New York, USA started Flyby almost 6 years ago, a hangover cure product.
- Revenue: $200,000/ month
- Founders: 1
- Employees: 1
- Location: New York, New York, USA
In my opinion, traveling is one of the best ways to spark your imagination.
In March of 2015, while I was still a senior at NYU, I traveled to to Japan. Japanese people are the embodiment of work hard, play hard. Heavy drinking is an ingrained aspect of society and business culture there, spawning a $178 million hangover cure industry.
2. Start a sleep product ($1.56M/year)
Sandeep Prasad from Pune, Maharashtra, India started Wink & Nod about 5 years ago, a sleep product.
- Revenue: $129,969/ month
- Founders: 1
- Employees: 25
- Location: Pune, Maharashtra, India
I used to work for a VC fund in Florida and focused on investments in early-stage consumer brands. I was also the COO of a luxury eCommerce watch company as part of the VC fund. I noticed a consistent rise in US & Europe based startups that focused on disrupting the mattress and the sleep market - these startups were bringing sleep products that were traditionally sold offline to an online-first model. Plus there was a lot of innovation in the product itself. Being someone who had experienced difficulties with sleep and actively looking for the best products that the market has to offer, it piqued my interest.
Treat your company or your startup as a child - nurture it, grow it, and make it ready for the world.
The catalyst to start the business was the pursuit of my parents for a good mattress. They spent more than three weeks in this quest and ended up buying a mattress for an absurd price of Rs 30,000. Upon asking my mother what mattress she had purchased, she was not very sure. The experience of my parents and the potential opportunities in the Indian mattress industry sparked the idea of building a startup focusing on sleep.
3. Start a blog ($60K/year)
Chhavi Agarwal from New Delhi, Delhi, India started Mrs Daaku Studio over 4 years ago, a blog.
- Revenue: $5,000/ month
- Founders: 2
- Employees: 3
- Location: New Delhi, Delhi, India
I am a licensed attorney in India and right after my master’s in law, I started working with a leading company as a lawyer. I worked there for about two years before I quit my job to become more location independent.
Choose a niche in whatever you start. It is critical for streamlining your efforts and make money.
My job paid me well but I worked 12 hours a day, I was exhausted by the end of each day, spent my weekends sleeping and I almost quit the things I liked to do - for example, sketching, yoga, traveling, etc.
4. Start a fruit delivery business ($60K/year)
Ivory Mouzon from Miami, Florida, USA started Honeydew over 4 years ago, a fruit delivery business.
- Revenue: $5,000/ month
- Founders: 2
- Employees: 0
- Location: Miami, Florida, USA
I am a woman who is constantly living in creative chaos.
I started college thinking that I would go on to become a nurse but my creativity always won in the end. I decided to throw in the full-time towel when I turned 26 to start my own business. I started out with an Etsy business that did really well. As time passed, the ideas started to flow nonstop.
I knew that entrepreneurship was my end goal. I am a part of a tech startup that we plan on launching one of our ideas in January of 2019 but I wanted to create something that could support the dream. The idea of the Honeydew List kept forcing itself back into my life because my cousin was always talking about his honey-do list.
5. Start a healthy drink business ($3.6M/year)
Deepak agarwal from New Delhi, Delhi, India started Auric about 5 years ago, a healthy drink business.
- Revenue: $300,000/ month
- Founders: 1
- Employees: 9
- Location: New Delhi, Delhi, India
The inflection point for me had its origins in both professional and personal life.
Most of my time at Unilever was spent with categories such as Haircare and Skincare. Customers buy brands in these categories for benefits like anti-dandruff. Surprisingly, the same customer ends up making purchases in foods due to taste & refreshment alone. Shouldn’t we be carrying more about the benefits of products that go in our bodies as compared to what goes over our bodies?
The second insight came from my personal life. A backbone fracture led me to three years of Physiotherapy which did not help. I turned towards Yoga and five years later, I came out not only a fitter person but also a changed being. That’s when I started learning and practicing Ayurveda.
6. Start a coffee brand ($24K/year)
Laure Lemboumba from Houston, TX, USA started Golden Made Kafé almost 4 years ago, a coffee brand.
- Revenue: $2,000/ month
- Founders: 1
- Employees: 1
- Location: Houston, TX, USA
I am originally from Gabon in Central Africa, my family and I moved to France when I was three years old for business matters. Entrepreneurship has always been a dream of mine from witnessing my Dad multiple and diverse. Therefore, I went to the University of Technology in Roanne, France where I got my degree in Technology in Industrial Logistics, Quality, and Organization. At the end of my program, I was awarded the Young Creator of a National Production Unit in 2007.
Due to my business ambition, I decided to broaden my skills by adding international market language, English. So, I moved to Houston, Texas (US) to go further into my education. In 2014, I earned my bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management from the University of Houston-Downtown.
Consequently, I got into coffee about six years ago when I started working for a coffee manufacturing plant in Houston. At that time, I was not a huge coffee drinker but after seeing what it takes to get a single cup of coffee and how it could make a difference in someone’s day. I knew I wanted to be an actor in that industry.

In 2013, Krisi and her co-founder Mike established the award-winning tea company Bird & Blend Tea Co. The company has 300 blends and a £6.5 million annual revenue.

After becoming friends at university and deciding Krisi and Mike wanted to start their own business rather than work for someone else. They started from small beginnings by selling blended tea from the kitchen at neighborhood markets.
