Did you ever think to yourself, “I could make a better smoothie than this!”? Our guest today had the same thought. Ted Volz is the founder of Clean Energy, a one-man operation that began producing clean label, fully organic, shelf-stable, one serving smoothie packets. He did all the research, ran the numbers, found a co-packer and 3PL provider, and put out a terrific product that is getting rave reviews. Ted did all this on his own, during a pandemic.
Join us for an inspirational discussion about how Ted Volz, a “numbers guy” with years of experience in accounting, became frustrated with the offerings he observed in the market and set out to create something better.
