At 29, she left her corporate job to sell flowers and now earns Rs 13 lakh a month
Inspired by her parents and seeking a fulfilling career, Vienna Hintze transformed her life by starting a successful flower business that now generates significant monthly revenue.
Vienna Hintze, a 29-year-old former corporate professional, left her advertising and marketing job in New York City to start her own flower business. She now earns Rs 13 lakh a month. The idea stemmed from her parents’ passions; her father, a former fighter, commuted in a pickup truck and her mother loved gardening.
After spending three years in the corporate world, Hintze realized in 2020 that she needed a change. She first ventured into entrepreneurship by starting a digital marketing agency at 24. Despite moving to Los Angeles in September 2022 to run the agency from her apartment, Hintze felt unfulfilled. “I was kind of losing the why behind what I was doing,” she explained. Seeking clarity, she consulted a therapist, who advised her to list what she desired in an ideal job. Hintze wanted to own an old pickup truck, work with her hands, and be outdoors interacting with people.
A week later, she launched Main Street Flower Truck, inspired by her father’s pickup truck and her mother’s gardening. Growing up, Hintze cherished memories of their blooming backyard and rides in her dad’s truck.
Her flower truck business thrives through pop-up events, corporate bookings and video shoots, generating Rs 36 lakh in revenue and an additional Rs 3.7 lakh in cash since its inception. “If you’re living with your happiness, the money will follow,” she shared. Last month alone, Hintze made Rs 13 lakh, proving that following her passion was the right decision.
