Creating an eco-friendly product checks boxes for environmentally conscious consumers. But how do you do it in a way that doesn’t compromise your product?
In today’s episode, I sit down with Phoebe Yu and Kat Dey, the co-founders of Ettitude — a DTC bamboo bedding, bath and sleep essentials line that aims to become “the Tesla of bedsheets.”
Phoebe and Kat share their views on being eco-friendly while also offering a product consumers love using, why bamboo is more environmentally friendly than cotton, and how joining the Founders Pledge will continue to help the environment if they ever choose to exit Ettitude.
You’ll also hear tactics on using entrepreneurship as a creative outlet, how and when it makes sense to set up a B-corp and how Phoebe and Kat went from unique immigrant backgrounds to partnering to launch Ettitude.
