Inc. Magzine Cover with Sweet Leaf Tea Founder Clayton ChristopherBe sure to check out Clayton’s mug on the July-August edition of Inc. Magazine. The special report features 10 savvy entrepreneurs and what it takes to get a dream company, like our beloved Sweet Leaf Tea, up and running. Oh, and don’t miss the copy on the cover—Inc. refers to Clayton as the “Iced-Tea Mogul” (I gotta find a way to use that!).

When you pick up your copy, go ahead and flip right on over to page 70 for juicy details about Clayton’s early experiences getting the business up and running. From tidbits about building a homegrown “tea hut” in Beaumont, Texas with co-founder David Smith to trials with supermarkets for better shelf placement, the story illustrates how following your dreams takes equal amounts passion and hard work. Well, and there’s that part about having a Mimi with a winning sweet tea recipe that seems to be pretty important, too.

Do you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur? Be sure to check with your Mimi, Grandmother, Granny or Honey to find out if there’s something you should know.
