How Maxine Laceby Built Absolute Collagen from Scratch—And Why She Never Took No for an Answer
Ever had a business idea and thought… ‘This could actually be something BIG?’
Today’s guest on Growth Addicts proves that yes, it absolutely can.
This week, I’m joined by Maxine Laceby, the co-founder of Absolute Collagen, a brand that went from a home kitchen bone broth experiment to a multi-million pound beauty business.
But it didn’t happen overnight.
In this episode, Maxine shares:
- How her DIY bone broth led to a game-changing discovery
- The moment she realised her small business could go BIG
- Why fear never held her back
- The best money she ever spent on her business (and why it was investment!)
- How knowing her ideal client guides every business decision
- The role of social media in scaling Absolute Collagen
- Why rejection didn’t stop her—and why YOU shouldn’t take no for an answer either
If you’re a small business owner wondering ‘What’s next?’ or ‘How do I scale this thing?’—this episode is for you. Hit play, take notes, and get inspired to take your business to the next level. Tag me on Instagram @amandahughes.uk & tell me your biggest takeaway!
