We chat to DTC ecommerce expert Adam Ross who is the co-founder and CEO of Heyday, a skincare company offering customised facial treatments. Heyday is expanding rapidly across the US, having raised a $20M Series B round last year. On today's episode we discuss why collecting first-party customer data is crucial for personalisation, how data analysis allows you to better understand which products are performing well, and how Heyday maintains high standards whilst expanding with a franchising model.
After our COVID induced hiatus, we return with a brand new episode! We chat to Brianne West, founder and CEO of Ethique, a brand which created the first ever solid shampoo bar.

We discuss a lesser known method of capital raising called 'equity crowdfunding', the importance of being a value-driven organisation, and how Ethique continues to connect with and deliver high quality products to its loyal customer base.
