Carol_blog72 copy 2.jpg

This is a really common question we get when we are working with Product Bosses: should I add more product to my business? This question creeps in from every stage from start-up to 5-figure to 6-figure and above. First of all, great question. Second, it is always really tempting for everyone. In this episode, we chat about three key areas that you, as a Product Boss, should consider before adding a product to your existing line. Walk through these three things and check (and verify) if adding a product is indeed right for you and your business.

Pura Vida Bracelets. You've probably heard of them because they are HUGE. But, we all start at zero, right? Pura Vida went from zero stores to being in over 2000 stores worldwide. Jared Mehr takes us behind the wholesale side of Pura Vida, but also lets us in on their product development, branding, tradeshows, relationship building, social good and SO MUCH MORE. There are so many gems in this episode, it's one of our favorites. An amazing story about college students that ended up starting a company together and how they're literally changing the world and creating the brand into exactly what they want it to be.
