OUR WHY?
To help ambitious, women-led beauty brands make a difference to people and the planet, and elevate the category.
20% Growth won’t make you a Big Beauty Brand
Your fans love your products, then why aren’t you a $100 million dollar beauty brand?
Is your emerging beauty brand growing fast enough?
20%-30% growth is highly unlikely to help you cross the chasm & join the $100 million beauty brand club.
-In the first 8-10 years, you should grow at least 100% yoy, to realize your dreams of becoming a big beauty brand.
But, what’s the challenge?
-It is not pricing or distribution
Tried all of the below?
1. Marketing activities: digital marketing, trade & consumer shows, PR & ads etc.
2. Online courses: It isn’t about going through the motions but about deliberation by someone who has done it for years & for dozens of brands.
Knowing is 5%, Doing is 95%
3. Piecemeal approach: Solutions in isolation-pricing, promotion, packaging, website, social media-can get you incremental results but not step-change.
Your Brand Challenge for Hyper-Growth:
Awareness + 6X Profitable SuperFans
Emerging market is a blessing in disguise for early stage brands.
How: Emotional Resonance( Glue of memory and instigates action)=Love At First Sight with emerging and early market will create 6X profitable super fans who will then get you 10X awareness with minimum investment.
ENVIED BEAUTY BRAND is the answer.
HOW AN ENVIED BRAND DELIVERS?
By evoking (LAFS) love at first sight with both the lead and the early mainstream consumers, motivating them into becoming your tribe, drastically reducing your cost of content and media while increasing marketing ROI due to emotional resonance for accelerating the right consumer acquistion for profitable growth.
Before you invest in any marketing activity from SEO to creative campaigns, digital marketing, content or consumer shows, etc., it is critical that you create an envied brand first to maximize the ROI on any marketing initiative and leapfrog into the next phase of profitable growth.

I had the wonderful experience of working with Rohit in 2019-20 in order to create a new story for my brand, Clean Kiss. I knew I found the right partner to work with right away as he stood out from the sea of other marketing consultants offering to help me design a new brand story. His approach was truly remarkably different from the others. He operates from facts not opinions; data vs. hunches. He is willing to customize to your individual needs. As a brand founder I needed his expertise in the skincare/beauty industry to move my brand to the next level. He went above and beyond our deliverables to help me execute on my brand story. I highly recommend Rohit if you are looking for a partner to help you take your brand to the next level.
