How Curie targeted an underserved need and created a business opportunity  

Sarah Moret, Co-founder and CEO of Curie, joins the POD to give some insight on the  business’s growth, marketing strategy, and how the brand got started. 

Curie is a brand that develops natural and effective body care products 

Sarah recognized that when it comes to hygiene and deodorant, there is an increasing desire among customers for clean and effective ingredients. To fill this gap, Sarah created a brand that catered toward this efficacy 

A unique approach was taken to achieve organic growth by using social media as the primary source of advertising, and networking to as many people as possible to create word of mouth brand awareness 

Sarah recognizes that the beginning stages of starting a business should be heavily open to change as you learn more about your customers 

Customer feedback is crucial to driving growth

Curie stands out as an eCommerce bodycare company for its effective and safe products. 

The brand has experienced growth and retention by prioritizing customer feedback to improve their products and differentiating themselves from the competition. 

Sarah takes a unique approach to achieving successful growth being open to change within any aspect of the business as she learns more about her customers 

The brand has fostered further growth by making quick decisions and not wasting time when it comes to solving a problem.

Sarah recommends reaching out to loyal customs for input on how to better your business.
