It’s one thing to build a brand once, but this week’s podcast guest has turned around and is doing it all over again.
Ben Leonard founded Beast Gear in 2016, sold it in 2019, and now returns for his third appearance on the Brand Builder Show to talk about new brands he’s building and why he’s doing it.
We discussed:
- Sourcing in Vietnam vs China
- Truly understanding the customer you’re serving
- How to build brands that last beyond any trending tactics
- Dealing with the darker side of entrepreneurship
- And much more!
This is an episode with a bit of a different feel and speaks to the heart of the eCommerce entrepreneur. Make sure to give it a listen!
