It's it's 66 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 5: the same way that. 67 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: Like I hire anybody, honestly, even when I was like 68 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: in corporate offices or now, is that first there has 69 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: to be an enormous amount of curiosity, you know, like 70 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: unnatural amount of curiosity, Like you want to you gotta 71 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: be the. 72 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 5: Nosiest person on the planet. 73 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: You know, you want to know about people, You want 74 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: to know about things, you want to know about situations, 75 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: like you have to want to know everything because I do, 76 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: like I live and breathe things that are happening in 77 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: the world around me. And that's the only way to 78 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: then have a better sense of how to connect. Because 79 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: if you understand what's happening in the culture, you know, 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: sam's happening in society, they have a much better chance 81 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: of being Like here, I'm going to tell you this thing. Yeah, 82 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, you sit it right into the middle of culture. 83 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: And what happens when brands go wrong is that they 84 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: sit in the wrong place. So true, you know, it's 85 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: not necessarily the thing is bad. Yeah, And that's why 86 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: I began with saying that, like, you know, it's not 87 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: that like brands or products are bad necessarily. 88 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 5: I mean, there are some. 89 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: Stinkers, but you know, for the most part, like things 90 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: are good too great. But if you have bad marketing 91 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: and you sit it in culture at the wrong time, 92 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: at the wrong place, then it's going to go tumbling down. 93 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 3: Or you're like so on it. I remember, I'm not 94 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: marketing is probably like my worst thing about me, Like 95 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 3: I don't know how, I'm just horrible. But I can 96 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 3: like see it and appreciate it. And I remember when 97 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 3: everybody was watching Love Island USA and Amaya papaya was 98 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 3: like rising, rising, rising everyone, and then Poppy comes out 99 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 3: and they have like the Amaya papaya flavor of like 100 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 3: that's marketing. 101 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 5: Yes, it was so brilliantly immediate. Yes, you know, like 102 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 5: it was just in the in the world. Yeah, is it? 103 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: Like I've said for a long time because people are like, 104 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, you should have did but and I'm like, no, 105 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: the ideas I had for Apple, you know, ten years ago, 106 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: twelve years ago, would not work today. The things I 107 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: did at Uber wouldn't work today. What I did at 108 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: Netflix three years ago wouldn't work today. It's a totally 109 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,679 Speaker 1: different situation we're in. And so that's the brilliance about 110 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: marketing and people who are good at it, which is 111 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: that they have to have a great sense of curiosity 112 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: about and then be able to articulate. 113 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 5: Communication in this field is make or break. 114 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: So that's why the pitch on the show is the 115 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: like the dramatization of what happens every day. It's like 116 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: you have to be able to articulate what you are 117 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: thinking and saying and expressing. As a result, if you 118 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: fail any. 119 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 5: One of those things. 120 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: A pitch can also turn a great idea into a 121 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: bad one, yeah, I mean, or a bad idea into 122 00:05:58,279 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: a good one. 123 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you want Shark Tank like that. You're like, oh, 124 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: this is a great product, but this pitch was so 125 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: immediately and it is hard. 126 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 5: It's hard to pitch, you know, it's terrifying. 127 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, it's so scared. 128 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: I think it's you don't strike me as someone who'd 129 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 2: be scared to do. 130 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 5: It, but okay, I's why it's terrible. 131 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: Oh I still get scared, you know, I would show 132 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: it no, and so I find something in the room 133 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: to like distract me from, you know, the fear. 134 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean, look the the idea of the pitch. 135 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,239 Speaker 1: And we do it all the time, which is actually 136 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: something that I don't think people realize. It's not just 137 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: in the boardroom, but like you're always pitching, you know, 138 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: you pitch in your relationship all the time. You know, 139 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: something you want to do that.

You know. 143 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: There are just situations in our lives that we don't 144 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: think of as pitch, but it is. When people talk 145 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: about personal brand, they think it's like some big monster 146 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: or like, oh I can't do it. I'm like, it's 147 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: your reputation is what it is. So who would you 148 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: like to write it?

Is just 152 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: in marketing speak, Cassio. 153 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: For our listeners that are like listening if they want 154 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 3: to like sharp, there is there like something that you 155 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 3: would recommend people if they want to like get better 156 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 3: at it? 157 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. Yes. 158 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: My favorite tool is a book called The Artist's Way. 159 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 5: I heard you have Yeah. 160 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 4: Can I tell you something. 161 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 5: That's really yes, please, just. 162 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 4: Horrible and honest. I've talked about this, don't even That's 163 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 4: why it sounds familiar. 164 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 2: I have started it and then I stop and stop 165 00:07:58,640 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 2: and everyone and then. 166 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 4: I see people.

And the thing is that, like you know, 171 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: talk about marketing. I think it's titled wrong because people 172 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: think that chanced to be an artist right. 173 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 5: In order to do it. But it takes me back 174 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 5: to this. 175 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,239 Speaker 1: I have a good friend who's an artist visual artist, 176 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: and she once like took me through this exercise that 177 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: was just like so mind blow. 178 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 5: I've used it for every team I've ever been on. 179 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: She's like, you know, when you were five and in kindergarten, 180 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: like you know, teacher passed around the paper and some 181 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: crayons and said. 182 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 5: Draw a cat. 183 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: Everybody drew a cat, and she went around, she collected 184 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: the paper, she put the cats up on the wall 185 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 1: and everybody's, oh, that's my cat, that's my cat, and 186 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: everybody is celebrating. Okay, Then you got to like fourth 187 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: grade and you had an art assignment. They said draw cat, 188 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: and everybody drew their cats. Some cats were really good, 189 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: some cats were really bad, and then the chosen ones 190 00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: were put up on the wall. 191 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 5: So now, of course your cast's not up there. So 192 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 5: now you know that you're not an artist. 193 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: By the time you got to college and somebody's like, oh, 194 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: there's this like. 195 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 5: Art program or is it I'm not an artist? 196 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: But the truth of matters that we're all artists in 197 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: some capacity. 198 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 5: Somewhere along the way, somebody told you that you were 199 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 5: at an artist. So then you stopped. 200 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: And so if you consider the artist's way just as 201 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: a way of being the way to utilize your mind 202 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 1: to get the things that you want to articulate to 203 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: be better, you know, in the way that you think 204 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: and contemplate and come up with ideas for your life 205 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: or for your business or whatever man you win. 206 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: Is it like calling in the one but for marketing? 207 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: Sure, well that's for life. 208 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 2: She talks about how like the artist in us is 209 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: our god giving creativity and how we exist in life. 210 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 2: And so I think in initially re getting it, I 211 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 2: was like, I don't really consider myself an artist. As 212 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: I star reading it, I was like, it's so true, 213 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: like we get limited by asking people what they think 214 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 2: and getting their opinions that tell us we're not good 215 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: or that shouldn't be our path. And it just it's 216 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: a lot of you'll you would love it.

Yep. 301 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: I think brands like Copy is a good one, you know, 302 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: new on the market. So again it's like new new brand. 303 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: Funny enough, I think Fenty's an excellent brand. So yeah, 304 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: from a product standpoint, now that's something special because the product, 305 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: like their strategy on the product wasn't new. It wasn't like, oh, 306 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: they developed something like forty shades. It's not like it 307 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: didn't exist. You know, it existed. All of the big 308 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: companies have it, but they weren't talking about it. Yes, 309 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: and they weren't making it available online because it wasn't 310 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: like fenty was in store. 311 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 5: Really, I mean, you can't. You couldn't go. 312 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: And find the darkest dark You couldn't find my shade 313 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: in any kind of store, Okay, but you could find 314 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: it online. And so why didn't the other companies do that. 315 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: They had it, they had the formulas, but they just 316 00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: didn't offer it. 317 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 4: You're talking in store, like having it in store and. 318 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Mabelings and all, like they didn't have 319 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: it in store and they didn't have it online. But 320 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: when Fenty said we have forty shades, they said, oh yeah, yeah. 321 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 5: We have forty shades too. 322 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 323 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 5: Yeah for twenty years and it's like, oh, yeah, you 324 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 5: did well, why don't you talk about it then? 325 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 4: Yeah? 326 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: You know, so from a product standpoint, Fenty took that 327 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: corner of the market not by inventing something new, by 328 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: talking about it in a way that was new. Yeah, 329 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: And so it was like that product strategy that became 330 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: the marketing strategy. 331 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 5: Excellent work. 332 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: It's interesting because you think about the uh just life 333 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 2: and businesses and how there's very rarely anything that's a 334 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 2: brand new idea. Yeah, Like there's everything saturated, yeah ideas, 335 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: you know, like. 336 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 4: Everything I think. 337 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 2: Of of, like oh I could start this and I'm like, 338 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 2: oh that's saturated, but and then I go But. 339 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 4: If you market it the right way, yes, yeah, anything. 340 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 5: Evolve it a little bit. 341 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: You know, like we're saying, Uber is basically a taxi 342 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: as you call on your phone through an app, you 343 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: know what I mean? 344 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 5: It was it really a brand new idea. 345 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: No, but it was definitely an improvement on current type, 346 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, and like, yeah, Apple Music, I mean was 347 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: that a new idea? No, We've had music forever since 348 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: the Stone Ages. Yeah, you know, but it's like, yeah, 349 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: we need to evolve from downloading one song at a 350 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: time to listening to anything that you wanted, yeah, moment 351 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: in time, you know. And by the way, think about 352 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: how scary that was, girl, I was in the room. 353 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: It is freaking the itnes was ninety percent of the market. Yeah, 354 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: imagine fumbling that. Yeah, you know, like starting a new 355 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: thing and being like, you know what, we're going to 356 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: cannibalize our own base. And then you got people out 357 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: here like Spotify and SoundCloud and all these other competitors, 358 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: and it's like, so are we. 359 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:15,719 Speaker 5: Going to give up this like iTunes ill estate if 360 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 5: it doesn't work when they come and steal our share. Yeah. 361 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 1: So, but the thing is that you must evolve, like 362 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: even if you're not creating the new thing, like, you 363 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: must evolve in the space you're in so that you 364 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: can actually breathe new life into whatever product it is, 365 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: whether it's an idea or it's a physical product or 366 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: a manufacturing product. 367 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 5: All of that. 368 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: When I decided that I wasn't going back to corporate 369 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: and that I was done with my book, and you know, 370 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: I was talking to Bravo and this and that, and 371 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: it's just like, ah, but you know, like that's TV. 372 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: That's like that's not real, that's not like a real job. 373 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: I really I decide I want to start a company 374 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: on my own, and I chose hair and beauty because 375 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: for so long, like everybody he talked about my hair 376 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 1: and my and like my fashion and like things. It 377 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: wasn't It was like a combination of like my work 378 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 1: and also how I appear, you know. So it's like 379 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 1: when Business Insider named me like, you know, the best 380 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: dressed executive in Silicon Valley, or Anna Wintour calls and 381 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: she's like, we're going to cover you in Vogue. Like 382 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: those were things that I was just like, Okay, shoot, 383 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm cute, fine, you know, And when I thought about 384 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: creating something, it was like, look, the hair extension and 385 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: beauty market is about an eight billion dollar business. 386 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 5: Right, that's crazy. 387 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: And eighty percent of the consumers of hair extensions are 388 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: women of color, yet they're not catered to, like in 389 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: development in textures. 390 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 5: In lace colors, nothing, and so I was like. 391 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: I wonder why that is, you know, is that like 392 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: a decision or what is the problem? So I went 393 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: to Guanzhou, China by myself, to the the largest hair 394 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: show in the world, to just explore. And the first 395 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: day it was a disaster because I didn't have an interpreter. 396 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: I didn't know what I was doing. And then I 397 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: learned my lesson and I hire somebody to take me around. 398 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: And it was so fascinating because the answer wasn't that 399 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: like it didn't exist so that they couldn't do it. 400 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: It's just like nobody was asking for it. So again, 401 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: it's not like I could have looked at the hair 402 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: extension business and been like, oh, eight billion dollars. 403 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 5: There's lots of people in this market. 404 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: There's so many options, and everybody's wearing clippings and extensions 405 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: and wigs, like, let me not get in there. But 406 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is that like hair texture, 407 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: lace color, which is what you know wigs are sewn on, 408 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: even color is something that women of color and black 409 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: women are not in the center of and they're eighty 410 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: percent of the market. And so I was like, well, 411 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to manufacture, so I learned everything I need 412 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: to know. I built a factory in Ghana in the headquarters, 413 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: I got a chemist here in the US that I 414 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: then imported a bunch of wonderful natural ingredients have been 415 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: used for millennia in Africa people are more familiar like 416 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 1: shade butter and stuff like that, which I have, but 417 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: like maringa or rose hip from South Africa, palm kernel oil, 418 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: the bow bob tree which is known as the tree 419 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: of life, like these are all ingredients that are used 420 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: widely on the continent but haven't made it into Western products. 421 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: And so yeah, I made a whole bunch of goods 422 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: air care that's based on all of those ingredients and 423 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: hair extensions and wigs. 424 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 5: And now it's almost a year old. 425 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: What was the time from idea conception? 426 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, to make it. 427 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 5: Happen about eighteen months? 428 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:55,959 Speaker 1: Oh dang, yeah, yeah, Like I knew it pretty immediately 429 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: that that's what I wanted to do. Once the idea 430 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: was terminating, I was like, I gotta do this. And 431 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: then once I went to Guangzho, I was like, oh, 432 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: I have to do this. And then it was about learning, 433 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, because I've I've never myself manufactured a product. 434 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: I worked for CPGs before, but like never magine manufactured anything. 435 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 5: And like, how do you start a factory? Yeah? Right right? 436 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 5: How how did you learn? That's? 437 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: I keep telling you that, like endless curiosity has been 438 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: my secret. 439 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 3: You just research, tons of research and asking people everybody. 440 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: I don't know that everybody. When I tell you everybody, 441 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: I mean it like. 442 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 5: I went back to China. 443 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: I was like, hey, might hear the factory wants to 444 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: go to Ghana for like six months? 445 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 5: Yes, And there were so off we went, you know 446 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 5: what I mean? 447 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: Like and then also so much like trial and error, 448 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,479 Speaker 1: and you know, talking to people who have done this already, 449 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: like the chemists that I work with, you know, has 450 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,719 Speaker 1: like forty years of product development and was just waiting 451 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: for an opportunity like this. 452 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 5: I mean, come on, It's like I just let her play. 453 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: Yeah yeh with toys that I provided she created, and 454 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: it was It's so wonderful. So for me, I think 455 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: one of the things that I always impress upon people, 456 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: whether in your marketing or an entrepreneur or you're trying 457 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: to just figure out what the next thing is, is 458 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: that You've got to be endlessly curious. So I'm like, 459 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: you gotta be the nosiest bitch on the planet, you know, 460 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: just like ask every question, ask everybody. You're not asking 461 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: them for their opinion, You're asking them for information. 462 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 463 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 5: And the analogy that I can make is like. 464 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: If you were applying for a job and you had 465 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: a friend who worked there, and you ask that person, 466 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: you know, is this a good place for women who 467 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: were in their late forties? Like, well, I you know, 468 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: is it a good place for advancement? And she's thirty 469 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: six and hasn't been promoted yet. 470 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 5: It's going to be like, no, this is awful, No, 471 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 5: don't do it. 472 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: That's asking her opinion about whether or not you will 473 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: succeed there. However, if you ask her like, hey, how 474 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: many senior executives are in their late forties and she's 475 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: like ninety percent of them? 476 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 5: How many are women? Fifty percent of them? 477 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: Okay, then you can base your decision based off the 478 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: information she gave you, not based off of her opinion, 479 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: because who knows what her experience is.
