Photo Jan 20, 11 42 33 AM

Alli Webb kicked off her Entreprenista journey when she took her thriving mobile blowout business she had launched as a side hustle and turned it into the Drybar empire we all know today. You’re about to hear not only the inspiring story of how she made luxurious blowouts accessible to everyone, but also how she is now building her two latest ventures: Squeeze, a disruptive massage salon chain, and Becket + Quill, a DTC jewelry brand that offers high-end designs and materials at an affordable price.

Today, you’ll hear about the early days of Drybar and how Alli first started her mobile blowout business to solve a personal struggle. She shares her experience partnering with her brother for both Drybar and Squeeze, offering her best tips for working with family. She talks about managing the explosive growth of Drybar and the process of starting a second business. She shares the story behind Beckett + Quill and how they are destructing the space. She shares the secret sauce behind building successful partnerships. Finally, she notes the importance of leading with kindness and posturing an environment where your team feels empowered.

“Make your own path. Find your own way…There are many, many different ways to find success and to become a leader.”

– Alli Webb
