The path of the entrepreneur requires taking calculated risks, developing resilience and an unwavering commitment to strong personal values.
Today’s episode features a business owner whose Made From Scratch entrepreneurship embodies each of these qualities along with a deep-rooted faith that led her from investing her last five dollars — to creating a multi-city cupcake empire known as The Cupcake Collection.
Mignon Francois is known for developing an iconic cupcake flavor that drew long lines of people to her historic Germantown neighborhood in Nashville, Tennessee. The success of her business ignited a new movement to the area for other businesses to move in and take root as well. Mignon’s business savvy earned her the titles of “Woman of Legend and Merit” by Tennessee State University, “Family Business of the Year” by Black Enterprise Magazine and “Emerging Business Leader of the Year.”
Tune in to hear Mignon’s amazing story of courage and resilience and how maintaining the right perspective turns scarcity into opportunities for learning.
