How Mignon Francois turned $5 into 10 Million Dollars by Selling Cupcakes


When we embark on a new entrepreneurship endeavor, there’s a lot that we put into it — and sometimes it might not feel like it’s paying off! We see our fellow entrepreneurs on Instagram with big houses and expensive cars and ask ourselves, ‘how am I not there yet?!’ While the big picture of pulling in big dollars and being your own boss is the light at the end of the tunnel, starting a business is SERIOUS business, and it isn’t always easy — even when you’re working for yourself, it’s still work!

In this episode of the His & Her Money Show, there is so. Much. To learn on the subject! We couldn’t be any more excited to welcome our guest Mignon Francios, founder of The Cupcake Collection in New Orleans, for some fantastic conversation on business, life, and everything between. Mignon is a superstar entrepreneur with an amazing journey that she’s sharing with us today, and we can’t wait for you to hear it!

13 years ago, Mignon didn’t even bake — today, she runs a cupcake empire. So, how did it all happen? Well, she started out on a side hustle with just $5 and grew a $10 million business! And yes, you read that right! Mignon is telling us the whole story, and she’s not holding back on any details — the good, the bad, and the struggles she faced along the way. 

She drops the mic on what entrepreneurship means to her and so many gold nuggets for any budding entrepreneurs out there listening in. With her wealth of experience and knowledge, we can almost guarantee that Mignon will change your mindset, and as a result, maybe even change your hustle. You never know what God’s plan could be for you!
