6 years ago, April Scott started a clothing business and shut it down because she could barely make a sale. But after taking the foundr Start and Scale course this past year, she launched The Villa and sold $12K of products in 2 months. The Villa is a luxury sleepwear brand for women that will make them feel feminine, fun, fierce, and comfortable. April's mission is to make sleepwear for those special moments (weddings, maternity photoshoots, and girls' trips) while creating a community of women with the same self-confidence she's gained by starting a business.
