September 11, 2025Why Sustainable Marketing is Essential with Leah Hart
"When thinking about ethical marketing, I basically boil it down to the fact that the people that we are marketing to are human beings, and they're worthy of respect and care."
Today, we’re joined by Leah Hart and diving into sustainable marketing, what it really means, why it matters, and how businesses can win customers while doing good for the world.
About Leah:
Leah is a sustainability nerd and digital marketer with nearly a decade of experience in everything from social media management and email marketing to SEO and analytics. She thinks the best marketing strategies are holistic ones and that "this is the way we've always done it" is the worst reason for doing anything. Outside of work, she's an avid hiker and birdwatcher. She also enjoys traveling the world in search of the best vegan junk food.
