Startup CPG podcast is so valuable, helping to accelerate understanding and empathy for brands and buyers and everyone in this beautiful ecosystem.
As a CPG brand, I find these podcasts educational, inspiring and informative. I love to learn other brands stories and the “why” behind the brand. It is refreshing and encouraging to know other brands challenges are the same or similar to your own and that you are not alone in navigating the sea of CPG.
What would I do without this podcast! Thank you !
I recently discovered the startup CPG on Instagram while on my journey to transforming my herbal tea business to a RTD will mocktail brand. It’s been quite difficult to find the right people, firms and just getting good advice. Between the podcast, the Slack team, Instagram everything I’ve needed is all in one place. Super grateful for this team and the insight all of these founders provide!
As a founder, I love this podcast. There are so many incredibly helpful episodes. It is also an amazing community!
