Entreprenista

Gregg Renfrew launched Beautycounter without any experience in the beauty industry but with a fierce desire to make clean beauty as accessible as possible. Today, with over 60,000 independent consultants, Beautycounter is taking the world of beauty by storm with locations on both coasts, and Gregg joins us to share the story of how it all started.

Today, you’ll hear how Gregg started Beautycounter without any experience in the beauty industry. She talks about how Beautycounter coined the term “clean beauty” and why this is so important to her mission. She discusses the importance of surrounding yourself with people who are passionate about your mission rather than experts. She shares the process of raising money for Beautycounter, as well as what she would do differently next time. She reviews her evolution as a leader over the years and how the pandemic has impacted her company culture, as well as the ways in which it has allowed her to lean into her people’s strengths. She talks about exciting recent launches and how the company is leaning into live stream shopping. She tells how you can get involved with Beautycounter and discover their products. She shares stories about the mentors that have guided her over the years and discusses why it’s such an incredible asset to be a woman in business. Gregg shares how she’s developed a new D2C model that’s fueled by the power of their community. She ends by noting that nothing replaces hard work.

“I can own my strengths and my vulnerabilities, and it doesn’t make me a tough bitch. It actually makes me a strong leader.”

- Gregg Renfrew

Allie Kelly began her career in construction and architectural engineering. When she made the decision to move to something she was more passionate about, she joined the marketing team at Stein Eriksen Lodge. Since then, she has held various marketing positions at Lionbridge, SnapApp, and Attivio. In 2016, she took the position of CMO at JazzHR as the only female executive in the room and was tasked with helping the company thrive after a challenging rebrand.

Today, Allie joins the show to share the incredible impact she has made by implementing cutting-edge marketing strategies, cultivating an employee-led culture, and introducing powerful changes such as a new maternity leave policy. She talks about how JazzHR has become the most intuitive job applicant tracking platform on the market today, as well as how she has been a part of its success. She shares how her previous roles led to JazzHR and why her non-traditional background made her the ideal candidate. She discusses how her biggest driver is building new processes within organizations and gives her best tips for job seekers looking to catch the attention of recruiters in 2021. She offers her experience being the only female executive in the room and her tips for listeners in the same situation. Allie also shares her best advice for balancing motherhood and your career and tells why her husband is a huge part of her success. She ends by sharing a special offer to try JazzHR for yourself.

“The pressure that I feel is the pressure that I put on myself.”

Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of The Entreprenista Podcast - the most fun business meeting for female founders, by female founders.

Hilary Coles launched Hims & Hers when, after moving from Canada to the US, she discovered that navigating the healthcare system isn’t nearly as simple as it could be. Through the companies, she has helped destigmatize both physical and mental health issues. She built the two brands from the ground up, and through them she continues to make the experience of booking a doctor’s visit as accessible as possible across the country as telemedicine becomes the new norm.

Today you’ll hear how Hilary’s personal experience in healthcare impacted her decision to launch Hims & Hers. She discusses the magical experience of launching Hims, as well as one of the biggest challenges. She shares her most crucial piece of advice for making important decisions, noting that more urgent decisions require more deliberate consideration, not less. She talks about how Hims & Hers have pivoted over the past year to better meet the needs of customers. She shares exclusive insights into her exciting upcoming haircare collaboration and also tells how she’s staying grounded this year.

“Taking care of yourself changes the way you think about your future. It changes everything about yourself.”

This week on SocialFly’s Entreprenista Podcast:

How getting comfortable with a lot of responsibility helps instill a can-do attitudeWhy high-pressure decisions need more thought behind them, not lessThe importance of being transparent with your teamTools to keep collaboration strongThe importance of getting up more times than you get knocked downLeaning into your strengths instead of focusing on compensating for your weaknesses

Julie Rice discovered her passion for makeup as a teen when she found the Clinique Counter at Nordstrom. She was trained at FIT and began working at a makeup counter, but when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis just five days before her wedding, she became attuned to the importance of health. She launched Inner Beauty, a clean cosmetics brand whose products are free of harmful chemicals. Today, Inner Beauty is quickly becoming a major beauty brand that you’ll be able to find soon at major retailers. Through her company, Julie is spreading the word about clean products and the importance of taking care of yourself.

Today, Julie joins the show to talk about her journey from working at a makeup counter to growing Inner Beauty and getting her brand into the retailer of her dreams. She shares how her experience being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis led to her desire to create a cosmetics line that was free of harmful ingredients. She offers key advice for listeners who want to start their own beauty business and shares some exciting news about her company. She talks about how she makes working at home work for her and how she makes time for her family. She gives the biggest lesson she has learned over the years and shares how she manages her chronic illness with her busy entreprenista lifestyle.

Ashley Hearon-Smith and Keri Setaro have two things in common: they both have backgrounds in entertainment and they’re both hustlers. They met when they were recruited to play best friends for the Scary Mommy podcast and quickly became the real thing. Recently they started their current podcast, Momtourage, where they talk about the mom life. They’re also building a media company from the ground up.

Today, they join the show to talk about their story and the lessons they’ve learned from it. They discuss the importance of hustling right away and the value of having a talk about ground rules before getting into anything with someone. They talk about how they found out what they really wanted to do with their skills. They give tips for starting your own podcast and note the importance of consistency--in both format and quality--when releasing content.

Wende Zomnir began her career in marketing at the Leo Burnett Company. She loved it, but she hated the cold in Chicago. She moved to California where she continued working in marketing, but struggled to find fulfillment in her new job. She wanted to create and to be her own boss, so she started Urban Decay, where she set out to change how women look in makeup and brought her own spin to the world of color cosmetics.

Today, Wende joins us to talk about how she grew Urban Decay into the global beauty empire it is today through smart marketing tactics, groundbreaking formulas, and iconic products. She talks about how she discovered a passion for makeup at an early age and how her partnership with Sandy Lerner would change the color cosmetics industry. She tells about the early days of Urban Decay, and how they marketed their brand in a time before social media. She explains how she first built her team and shares her favorite interview question that helps her determine if someone is the right fit for the job. She talks about the impact of COVID-19 on her business, including the acceleration of virtual try ons. She shares her experience selling Urban Decay and talks about why she wishes she had predicted the bumps in the road that came with the transition. She explains how getting acquired helped Urban Decay reach its goal of becoming a global brand. She talks about balancing motherhood and business-building, and she takes some time to recognize the mentors that have helped her along the way. She fends off a rapid-fire Q&A and shares some tips for successfully striking a healthy work-life balance, noting the importance of making constant tiny adjustments.

“It's really easy as you get into makeup--it's a creative field--to be artistic, to want to be self-expressive, to put the brand out there. But it's also a business, so it's really important to run it like a business.”

Crystal Etienne is a black female businesswoman and founder of Ruby Love: a femtech company that supports women living their best lives, even while on their period. She was relentless in pursuit of creating period-proof underwear and apparel that should never stop women from doing, being and going. She bootstrapped Ruby Love (formerly known as PantyProp) with an initial investment of $25,000 and launched on December 5, 2015. She set her mind on helping women and making her dream come true, and that incredible ride isn’t over yet—just like the women who use her products, she will never stop doing, being, and going. 

Today, Crystal joins us to talk about how she bootstrapped her business from an idea she got while watching TV. She talks about the initial steps she had to research and learn to make her product a reality. She explains why paid advertising was vital to her online business, and why she wishes she started paid to advertise sooner. She stresses the importance of having a proper work/life balance and how work can be put off until the next day. 

“You can't have a million-dollar business with a minimum wage mindset.”
