Kinga Wilewska | MUJO: How to bring a product to market


Listen Later

When it comes to bringing a product to market, there are lots of aspects to consider before it reaches the shelves. 

To learn more, I wanted to hear from someone who has successfully launched products to market. Kinga Wilewska is the Founder & CEO of MUJO, the adaptogenic coffee alternative packed with vital nutrients. Having watched her dad lose his fight against cancer, Kinga developed a keen interest in adaptogens & set out to bring truly transformational products to market. 

Keep listening to hear Kinga’s advice on sourcing feedback on your products & how to begin making sales. 

Kinga's advice:

  • Always pay attention to costs
  • Spend time sourcing ingredients carefully
  • Research your market thoroughly and understand where the gaps are
  • Speak to strangers about what propels them to buy / what are their priorities / what packaging appeals to them
  • Pay continual attention to feedback
  • Communicate with your buyers; see your product as a service for them
  • Refine your pitch and your website to suit your market
  • Your brand needs to inspire trust and exude authority
  • Always put quality over quantity
  • Believe absolutely in your product yourself
  • Be disciplined and honest with yourself (eg when you need help)
  • Use Facebook to advertise - rather than use an agency (this can minimise spend and maximise reach)
  • Minimise risks for first time buyers: guarantee them money back and absorb the shipping costs yourself
  • Always be ready to learn some new way of reaching your market
