Starting a new brand is one of the most difficult things one can do. It’s no surprise that so few startup CPG brands succeed.
You’ve done hard work to get where you are. But you feel stuck.
Every time you talk to someone about your brand or try to make hard decisions or decide where to invest, you struggle focus on what’s most important.
How do you explain to others why you are doing this work? How do you quickly express what you hope to accomplish/the mark you want to leave in the world?
This makes you feel overwhelmed and stressed.
