Talking about entrepreneurship and the struggles/wins.

“The best entrepreneurs are energized about the problem they’re solving because it affected them. That’s Nick.” - Andrew Yang, entrepreneur, author, philanthropist, and former US presidential and NYC mayoral candidate. At Mmmly, we have have been lucky enough to surround ourselves with great entrepreneurs, creators, and business owners, and Andrew has been an incredible mentor and advocate since he came on board. Andrew has served as an expert strategist when it came to how to approach our community round, and jumped at the opportunity to support with an additional investment and spreading the word far and wide. We are thrilled to share this week’s episode of Forward, where Andrew sits down with Nicholas Naclerio to discuss his entrepreneurial journey, and how he built his cookie empire by first solving his own problem, then realizing just how many people were struggling with the same challenge. The world needs a better cookie, and Mmmly is here to deliver. Click the link below to watch Nick's episode of Forward titled "Crafting a Healthier Cookie" hosted by Andrew Yang where he divulges the challenging and rewarding path toward a simple mission: deliciously healthy cookies for all. They’ll discuss his personal journey with nutrition, culinary background, the ultimate cookie recipe, and scaling the business from recipe to a $3.8M pipeline.
