  • 007: How Rhode Built a $1 Billion Brand in 3 Years: A Masterclass in Modern Branding & Marketing

    In this episode of Path to Profit, we’re breaking down the billion-dollar beauty move that has everyone talking: Hailey Bieber’s skincare brand, Rhode, was just acquired by E.l.f. Cosmetics for $1 BILLION.


    Yes, she’s a celebrity. But this deal didn’t happen because of fame. It happened because of structure, clarity, and strategy.

    • How Rhode made $212M in sales with just 10 products
    • Why their content converts without looking overproduced
    • The power of founder-led marketing (and how you can use it even if you’re not famous)
    • What Rhode did differently that made them acquisition-worthy
    • And why most small brands miss these exact same fundamentals


    You don’t need a massive budget or a famous last name to build a brand that works.

    But you do need strategy & clarity.
