Podcast appearances and mentions of jessi baker

In today's fast-paced digital age, technology is a potent catalyst for encouraging conscious consumerism. With the tap of a screen or the click of a button, consumers can access a wealth of information about products, including their origins, environmental impact, and ethical practices of the brands behind them. Apps and platforms provide easy access to product ratings, reviews, and sustainability certifications, empowering consumers to make informed choices aligned with their values. One remarkable platform leading the charge in this realm is Provenance, founded by our guest today, Jessi Baker. Provenance empowers consumers by making the journey of a product transparent, allowing them to access information about its production, sourcing, and ethical practices. What's unique is that, as a consumer, you'll encounter Provenance in the same familiar ways you usually shop, seamlessly integrating sustainability into your everyday choices.**This season is sponsored by Ernest Jones**Ernest Jones, Britain's favourite high-street jeweller, is launching an exclusive new collection called "Origin by Ernest Jones”.

Welcome to Episode 75 https://sustainable-ecom.com/ep75   It's becoming increasingly vital to PROVE your sustainability claims.   Yes, part of that is to do with increasing levels of regulation around what you can and can't say.  But when it comes to growing your brand, the part that often gets overlooked is providing proof, in trustworthy, credible and consistent ways, to your potential consumers. We've had a couple of technology based solutions on the show in the past, including Austin Simms from Dayrize back in episode 11, and Akhil Sivanandan from Greenstory in episode 27. Both are great solutions, but to date mostly focused on supporting the fashion and textiles supply chain due to the huge life cycle data sets available. But I recently came across another incredible platform that I wanted to share with you on today's show. Instead of generating transparency for fashion brands, this one is focused on supporting the credibility of thousands of brands in the personal care, cosmetics and home cleaning spaces. So my guest today is Jessi Baker, MBE, founder of Provenance, a UK-based technology platform bringing blockchain level transparency to sustainability marketing. For so many reasons I think this might be one of the most important episodes we've ever done on this show. My gut feel is that 2023 marks an epoch change in sustainability marketing, from the wild west where you can say anything you want, to a more professional era underpinned by regulation and much more enlightened, cynical and educated consumerism.   Proving what you're doing with certifications is just one thing.  You need to be able to surface that up in a consistent, compliant, recognisable and trustworthy way across all your channels and all your geographies. That becomes an ever more daunting prospect as you grow, and one where tools like Provenance offer the next generation in marketing support.

For Episode 37, we're spotlighting Jessie Baker, MBE, Founder of Provenance, a global leader in sustainable marketing technology, where citizens drive progress through purchase.

Provenance provides a framework for retailers and brands to assess, monitor and communicate their sustainability, and this has progressed from a technology play (developing data and blockchain services) into "sustainability marketing technology". We go behind the scenes with Jessi Baker, the founder and CEO, and along the way discuss the challenges of implementation, how brands are adapting to and embracing transparency, and the direction of travel in making sustainably supply chains easy and relevant for the consumer. Jessi mentioned the phrase "glass-box brands", succinctly describing the radical transparency and scrutiny under which modern businesses now operate. Sienne Veit is the Group Digital Product and Platform Director for Kingfisher PLC, owners of Screwfix, B&Q, Castorama and others in a £13bn turnover powerhouse in the "homes" and DIY sectors across Europe. Sienne tracks the idea of a "product" and how the aim is to "create joyful things" that increase not only increased sales but also enhance the experience of interacting with the brand, solving consumer problems. She repeats the concept when she describes how the combination of data science and engineering can 'make meaning and create joy' - surely a rallying cry for our times! Join us in the studio for this informative, wide-ranging and clear discussion on key themes in modern retail: data, transparency, technology and the consumer's experience.   All of our podcasts now have a full transcript and notes available - check out the episode page on https://internetretailing.net/retailcraft-retail-podcasts/retailcraft-retail-podcasts Run time: 54 minutes INFORMATION: Jessi Baker MBE: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessibaker/  Sienne Veit: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sienneveit/  Jamie Merrick: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamiemerrick/  Ian Jindal: www.linkedin.com/in/ianjindal/  and www.twitter.com/ianjindal    Recorded and engineered at Spiritland Studios, UK.

Welcome to this Green Beauty Opinion in which Formula Botanica CEO Lorraine Dallmeier shares her main takeouts from the previous episode interviewing Jessi Baker, MBE, Founder and CEO, of Provenance, a software solution helping brands build trust and enabling change through transparent communications. Traditionally, the beauty industry and consumers have thought of transparency as relating to ingredients alone, and focused on the near polar debate of natural good, synthetics bad. However, when it comes to transparency about sustainability, the debate is more nuanced. Eradicating greenwashing requires us to ask questions about beauty brands' commitment to recycling, waste, the climate, their social footprint and far more. And we need transparent, verifiable evidence of any claims they make. Thankfully, with the power of tech solutions, companies like Provenance are independent auditors of claims, helping propel brands to a more sustainable place and in doing so helping consumers make more sustainable choices. Lorraine challenges us to think about what is important to us in the beauty products we buy and to press beauty brands for transparency about more than their ingredients. Listen in for a thought-provoking five minutes that challenge us to be the voice of change and integrity, making the beauty industry better and more sustainable.

The beauty sector is a half-a-trillion-dollar global industry, but it's only recently that beauty brands are finally starting to take part in the sustainability conversation. Largely, this is in response to greater consumer demands for transparency in how beauty does business - all the way from its supply chains to the truth behind its claims. We've seen this play out on this podcast. Over the past year, sustainability has featured in just about all our episodes in some form. We have covered topics such as circular, net zero, zero waste and climate neutral beauty along with the issues like biodegrability, sustainable retail and skinimalism. But, there are plenty of brands, from multinationals to indie beauty, who are are out there using sustainability terms as a veneer; green-washing us in other words. How do we as beauty consumers verify the truth of a beauty brand's claim that their packaging is made of recycled materials? Or that they've offset their last year's carbon emissions? None of us can hold every single beauty brand to account on every single impact. One ambitious entrepreneur is on a mission to change that by encouraging the beauty industry, as well as many other industries, to verify their claims and turn positive social and environmental impact into brand value; a win-win for brands and consumers. In this episode, Formula Botanica CEO Lorraine Dallmeier talks to Jessi Baker, MBE, the founder and CEO of Provenance, a software solution verifying sustainability claims and helping empower shoppers to make sustainable, ethical choices at the point of purchase.

When Jessi Baker opened a moonshine business with her husband Joe and two of their friends, she never expected it to grow into a nationwide phenomenon. But almost 10 years later, Ole Smoky is the most visited distillery in the world, and its moonshine is sold in all 50 states and 53 countries. After leaving her career as an attorney, Jessi has found her passion in developing Ole Smoky food products, and she recently released a cookbook called Shining: Ole Smoky Moonshine Family Cookbook, which features delicious cocktails and family recipes for true Southern food.  Jessi and her family didn’t stop with Ole Smoky, going on to open businesses like Bootleggers Homemade Wine and Yee Haw Brewing.

Though growth has not always been easy, Jessi has seen the rewards for her family and community, and she loves getting to carry on her family’s legacy of entrepreneurship and tourism.  In this episode, Jessi explains how Ole Smoky grew from a side hustle rooted in her in-laws’ tradition of making moonshine into a successful company with over 500 employees (7:06). She describes growing up surrounded by tourism and learning entrepreneurship from her grandmother, who ran Ole Smoky Candy Kitchen (16:12). As a mother and an entrepreneur, Jessi knows how difficult it can be to design a life that brings those two worlds together, and she opens up about what it’s like to be in business with her husband and show her kids the value of hard work (21:47). Jessi also bravely shares the story of how her grieving process after a miscarriage led her to create the Ole Smoky cookbook, and she offers advice for learning to feel strong again after a difficult loss (22:57).  Though she knows some people think Ole Smokey’s success came easily, Jessi gets real about the struggle that goes into expanding a business, and she offers advice for how to know when it’s the right time to grow (33:35). She explains how the rewards of bringing growth and joy to her community and family have made it all worth it, and describes how those things have become the markers by which she now views success (39:20).  As a special gift for Her Story of Success listeners, Jessi also shares a recipe for one of the cocktails from her new cookbook, the Beer Shinearita (28:16):   Ingredients 1 can frozen limeade 1 cup Ole Smoky Original Corn Moonshine 1/2 cup Ole Smoky Margarita Moonshine  1 cup water 1 Yeehaw Cerveza Lime Juice   Instructions Stir limeade, moonshine and water together in a pitcher until the frozen limeade dissolves Add in beer and lime juice Pour over ice and serve with a lime wedge   To find more delicious recipes like the ones Jessi and Leah talk about, check out Ole Smoky’s website or order Jessi’s cookbook.

Whatever else the First Industrial Revolution may have been, it was an environmental calamity. As we now know, the practice of mining and burning fossil fuels on a massive scale was profoundly consequential for our planetary development. Does the Fourth Industrial Revolution give us the chance to reverse the damage we have done? Across the spectrum of environmentalist activity, there are engineers and innovators finding ways to employ new technologies to lessen our impact on ecosystems, from the startup using blockchain to drive sustainable buying decisions to the activist using satellites to bring environmental degraders to book. In episode 3 of ‘Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution’ we talk to John Amos, founder of Skytruth; Paul Bunje, Chief Scientist of the X-Prize Foundation; Jonathon Porritt, former Director of Friends of the Earth; Lauren Fletcher, founder and CEO of Biocarbon Engineering; Jessi Baker, Founder of Provenance; Kim Hunter, VP of Communications and Engagement at Aclima.
