Episode #2: Does brand activism actually work?

These days it’s certainly trendy to slap a label on your brand and call yourself “sustainable”.

But, as a brand, how do you know if that actually influences your customer’s purchasing decision?

Meet Ashland Stansbury, founder of Because.

She’s on a mission to help ecommerce brands determine for themselves whether having a social or environmental purpose actually makes consumers click the buy button.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How to weave your purpose into every aspect of your brand

  • Whether having a social or environmental purpose is at odds with growing a business 📈

  • Raising capital from investors as a purpose-driven founder

Ashland is an expert on millennial and Gen Z shopping behavior, and whether you’re a skeptic of brand activism or not, I promise you’ll learn a ton from her.

I certainly did!
