Kiana Gomes: Start a thriving business from your kitchen table

Kiana Gomes is the creative mind behind the Cocktail Bomb Shop, a product she has designed to elevate your at-home bartending experience and impress your guests. After finding a gap in the market for her fizzy creations during the pandemic, she worked tirelessly on perfecting her formula. Kiana then posted a TikTok video of her cocktail bomb in action, and just like that, she went viral! She reached over 500,000 views overnight and her account has since grown to over 200k followers.  Once her business started to take off, she found herself outgrowing her kitchen table and with that, she knew it was time to scale up. Rather than taking out loans or turning to traditional funding sources, she decided to seek out investors on Dragon’s Den. Join us on the Sound Advice Podcast, for a flavourful journey, as we dive into how Kiana secured major investment while also building valuable business connections.
