Overcoming Challenges: Launching a Cigar Brand with Confidence

14 Oct Overcoming Challenges: Launching a Cigar Brand with Confidence

At Cigar Package Design (CPD), our mission is simple but powerful: We Help People Build Cigar Brands. Every project we take on has a story, and sometimes, those stories remind us exactly why we do what we do.

Recently, I had the pleasure of speaking with a passionate entrepreneur who embodies the kind of drive and vision we love to support.

From Doubt to Determination: One Entrepreneur’s Journey

She runs a thriving mobile cigar lounge and has built a loyal following for her unique cigar blends. Her next move? Expanding into retail by distributing her cigars to brick-and-mortar shops. That’s when she discovered our YouTube channel and decided to reach out.

From our very first conversation, her enthusiasm was electric. She had the heart, the drive, and a fresh perspective that the cigar industry truly needs—especially as a woman making her mark in a traditionally male-dominated space.

But like many entrepreneurs, she faced a moment of doubt.

Before contacting us, someone told her that starting a cigar distribution business was a “bad idea.” That one negative comment nearly derailed her plans. It planted uncertainty.

Fortunately, she made the call anyway.

The Industry Needs Your Voice

When she shared her hesitation, I reminded her of something critical: the cigar industry needs more diverse voices—especially passionate, driven women like her.

We talked about brand positioning, packaging strategies, and what it really takes to launch a successful cigar line. I could tell the spark was reigniting as we spoke. By the end of the call, she said something that stuck with me:

“You’ve put the energy back into this project!”

And that’s exactly what we aim to do at CPD.
