Welcome to E331 of the EcomCrew Podcast! In this episode, we have a husband-and-wife duo who share their ecommerce journey with us.

Deeanne and Garret Akerson had full-time jobs and two small kids when they first recognized the need to make high-quality and comfortable clothing for pregnant and lactating mothers. Born out of the desire to make motherhood easier, they made it their business' mission to provide moms with a great selection of clothes that are both functional and stylish.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How Deeanne and Garret started Kindred Bravely
  • How they dealt with existing brands who offered the same products
  • How they got their first reviews
  • Turning customer suggestions into best selling products
  • Braving the challenges of being new in ecommerce
  • Quitting their jobs to do the business full-time
  • Their secret sauce
  • Hurdling the winters of the business
  • Vanity metrics
  • Employing a team to focus on what they do best

Check out Deeanne and Garret's business, Kindred Bravely.
