FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Spinster Sisters Launches Offering on Equity Crowdfunding Platform, Republic
Golden-based natural skincare company seeks growth with investors of all sizes
Golden, Colo. April 21, 2021 — After experiencing 3.75x growth as an emerging brand in DTC, with 4.7x growth in natural grocery in 2020, Spinster Sisters Co is seeking to double its revenue in 2021. The natural face and skincare company has chosen the crowdfunding investment platform, Republic, to seek investors to help achieve its goals.
After starting in her basement and craft shows across the Front Range, founder Kelly Perkins has already grown the business into the 8,860 sq. ft. Microsoapery in Golden, with 1.4M annual revenue, and products on shelves in retailers across the country. A capital raise is the next step on the path to further growth.
Republic is a leader in this space and has a focus on diversity and equality, which appealed to Spinster Sisters Co when considering a platform for its raise. Being a certified women-owned business, Spinster Sisters is keenly aware of the divide that exists when it comes to funding women-founded business as compared to their male peers, and that 2020 saw that chasm widen when it comes to capital raises, with male founders raising more than ever before while female founders took a hit.¹
Meanwhile, Republic reports that women outperform men by 30% when it comes to crowdfunding, due in part to its community based platform and its ability to permit non-accredited investors access to the opportunities.
Spinster Sisters Co has definitive plans for the funds they intend to raise on the platform. The company’s core values include a customer-centric commitment, so success in this endeavor will mean a win-win, according to its founder. When discussing her excitement to be initiating this offering, founder and CEO, Kelly Perkins, said:
“We have such a loyal and engaged customer base, and it’s just so fun to get them involved in our future success like this. It takes the “Spinsterhood” to a whole new level and I love it!”
Having bootstrapped the company thus far, this campaign on Republic is Spinster Sisters Co’s first capital raise.
