KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE
Verifying claims to sustainability not only protects the brands but also provides the consumer with the confidence they are searching for.
If you want to build a sustainable brand, make sure that you’re selling on a platform with like-minded sellers competing on merits rather than solutions that are not verified.
Companies produce what customers demand, but ultimately if it’s too hard to buy, customers will buy whatever is the easiest.
Their secret to scaling - Use the Airbnb first 100 customer model! Treat the first 100 customers with an exceptional, over the top, VIP experience that supports their brand in every aspect of the experience! What’s going to make your experience more productive, we will do that for you!
