BoF's Imran Amed sits down with Priya Rao, executive editor of The Business of Beauty, to go inside the findings of our new report ‘The State of Fashion: Beauty.'Background:The global beauty industry is booming. “Beauty remains one of the most dynamic, challenging and sought-after industries, much more than other consumer goods — or even fashion,” says Priya Rao, executive editor of The Business of Beauty. “What we've seen is that consumers are so rabid and fervent for their beauty products… and brands are still really excited about bringing a new proposition to market.”This week on The BoF Podcast, editor-in-chief Imran Amed sits down with Rao to break down the five critical themes covered in BoF's new report, “The State of Fashion: Beauty,” created in partnership with McKinsey & Company.Key Insights:In the oversaturated beauty and wellness market, it can be difficult for new brands to gain consumer attention. To break through, they should first focus on one product or theme before moving to other categories. “[Rihanna's] Fenty Beauty was known for colour cosmetics until they most recently launched skin care,” says Rao. “They didn't try to launch hair care and injectables and sexual wellness devices all at once.”Expert voices are key when it comes to building trust as a beauty brand. “What dermatologists or aestheticians have done for skin care, we need that in wellness,” says Rao. “The way that wellness really grows is with credibility from the people who are founding these brands and selling these products.”Gen-Z wants beauty products that are more environmentally friendly but also affordable. According to Rao, brands like E.l.f and Milani have been able to address that demand. “They are giving the best experience to beauty consumers, but they also check those boxes of being socially conscious and value driven,” says Rao. Beauty M&A will consist of smaller deals driven by strong underlying financials. Big deals like L'Oréal buying Aesop for $2.5 billion will be a more of a rare occurrence. “Profitability is going to come into play much more… that's across the businesses out there in consumer goods,” says Rao.

Jenna is the CMO of IPSY, a direct to consumer business which happens to be the largest beauty subscription brand in the world. Prior to that, she was the CMO for 7 for all mankind, the denim brand, and was recognized as Forbes top 50 Entrepreneurial CMOs.  Jenna talks about how the creator economy and developing a tiered approach with influencers has been a significant growth driver for IPSY. She goes into the KPIs that are important to them like Earned Media Value and how that ties to organic traffic which is a direct source for acquisition and how these partnerships serve as a primary communication vehicle for product announcements and earned media to drive existing subscriber AOV. One of the sources IPSY has at their disposal is an influencer network that reaches north of 20M brand proponents. Not only do they have distribution at scale, but the brands and personalities of their creators, also then drive even more brand loyalty. So it's two feedback loops. One for distribution and another for brand sentiment.  --- Where to find Jenna:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennahabayeb/ Where to find Patrick:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/pcmoran/ --- Sources we discuss: https://www.tribedynamics.com/blog/earned-media-value https://www.ipsy.com/about --- (2:42) A description of IPSY as a business and when it got started    (4:14) Brand Partnerships as a supply source of products, Marketing Partnerships for amplification, and Creator Partnerships (7:21) The differences between Marketing Partnerships and Creator Partnerships (9:11) How IPSY got started building their creator economy  (11:44) Breaking down the creator economy into three tiers  (16:35) Using Earned Media Value to determine effectiveness (19:34) Impacting new subs and driving engagement  (21:29) Building non-transactional and authentic relationships with creators  (24:03) The emergence of de-influencing  (25:26) Using the community and customer forums for real time feedback and establishing deeper relationships     (28:26) How the internal teams leading creators, the community, and paid acquisition work with each other (30:25) How brands and companies can get started with a strong influencer strategy and build larger and stickier communities  (33:51) Defining effectiveness by aligning to business objectives  (37:14) Investment approach for influencers and tying to the right KPIs (38:45) Starting small and thinking about creators as partners in both distribution and content

This path could have been deemed ‘untraditional' for someone in Environmental Studies where many would opt for non-profit, for Kankam the company was right, the impact would be greater. Starting out as a project coordinator, working alongside teams detailing the optimum environmental impact of various oil sands projects, named Environmental Impact assessments, she set out to make the meaningful change the industry so desperately needed.Driven for not only a curiosity of the environment but a yearning to do better for a lasting planet, Kankam set her sights on real estate, addressing ecological and social issues, whilst building future-proofing strategies in commercial and residential builds.As Jacquelyn continued to set out on a mission to do better within many industries she changed focus to aviation joining Air Canada, to manage environmental sustainability. Here Jacquelyn looked into ways to engage customers and industry on aviation's sustainable journey while focusing on many topics including plastic and reporting.Growing a team of emerging professionals and mentoring the younger generation on preserving our future, Jackie saw a huge opportunity to create a powerful and good impact within an industry ready to overhaul preconceptions of its sustainability practices.That brings us to today, where Jackie holds the position of Director, Sustainability and Social Impact at DECIEM. Jackie leads the overarching company initiatives towards doing good to our people, planet, and animals. Kankam's role develops, communicates, and executes the sustainability strategy across internal departments and external stakeholders, collaborating on all facets of the business and needs.

Welcome to Episode #442 with Christina Flach, Celebrity Makeup and Hair Artist and creator and CEO of Pretty Girl Makeup.   During this episode, we talk about finding purpose through grief and managing and leading a successful business brand. Here are some highlights: There's always going to be bumps in the road and you just have to learn to ride these waves. Always have a plan A and plan B and hopefully you don't have to get to plan C. To have a successful brand, you have to be a little gentler and kinder to your self. Focus on what you've completed today instead of sulking on what you haven't done. Try to stay in the positive frame of mind. People tend to gravitate to people that have good positive attitude and good work ethics. You have to be flexible in any of you business decisions. There is no failure. Failure is not trying at all. If one doesn't work, then try something new. All these bumps and obstacles are lessons and they are not failure.   Learn more about the contents discussed in this episode: Connect with Christina via the following: LinkedIn, Instagram, Website

Given how much I love the Australian-beauty-brand-turned-global-beauty-empire Frank Body, I’ve wanted to interview their co-founder Bree Johnson for a long time. So today, I’m so excited to be in conversation with Bree. She’s a mother to a 15-month-old, and just weeks away from giving birth to her second child, so we’ve got this podcast in just in time. If you know Frank Body, you’ll love everything about their story. They started with a brown paper bag of ground coffee beans and they’re now a multi-million-dollar global beauty brand. So where did they begin? Well, I really love sharing founder stories for so many reasons, but mostly because they’re a reminder that we all need to start somewhere and help to take all the glamour and perceived overnight success hype away. In the case of Frank Body, they launched with less than $10,000 in capital and a single coffee scrub and the founders made this scrub by hand for the first six months. Given the team came from strong content backgrounds (they also run a content agency called Willow & Blake), they used content to grow the brand and here, we will talk about how important content is in brand building and why it’s often overlooked. Having experienced incredible success with a single product, the company grew. And grew. In fact, one of their products – the Frank Shimmer Scrub – had a wait list of almost 100,000 people prior to launching. We also talk about their latest innovation, the Everyday Range, which is incredibly exciting because clean beauty is a completely new category for Frank. Frank a great example of the power of execution – anyone can have any idea, but executing it is an entirely different thing altogether. They’re also a fantastic example of the power of community, the importance of building a strong director-to-consumer business and making sure your customer experience is truly unique.
