Imagine starting a business in your parents’ basement, winning Richard Branson’s Rebel Billionaire, and then turning your crazy idea—giant, overstuffed bean bags—into a $700 million furniture empire. Sounds like a movie, right? But for Shawn Nelson, it was just the beginning.
He shares the highs, the lows, and the “what-was-I-thinking” moments that shaped LoveSac’s success, from near disasters to game-changing breakthroughs. Plus, he reveals how his ‘Designed for Life’ philosophy is shaking up an industry built on disposable furniture.
If you love stories about bold ideas, big risks, and building a business that actually makes a difference—this one’s for you!
