The Unofficial Shopify Podcast

Lessons from Growing Two 8-figure Companies


Listen Later

Tom Ness is co-founder and former CMO of Truth Nutra and former CMO at Kinobody, and has since left both companies to pursue his new venture, Rugged Naturals - a natural personal care product brand for men. Tom is a self-taught, self-starter with a passion for building companies that create a positive impact. He has helped scale two companies from inception to nearly 8 figures in revenue apiece, impacting hundreds of thousands of lives around the world.

We'll find out:
  • The hallmarks of a brand with 8-figure potential
  • Why selling in spite of your website represents a tremendous opportunity
  • How one book (Ask) was a game-changer for their business
  • Tom's "opportunity checklist" for identifying great businesses
  • What to focus on when scaling (and the number one problem faced by most marketers)
  • Tune in for more details!
